Replacing leaking fixtures
Fixtures, just like other elements in the house, are outdated too. From showerheads to faucets, when they get old, they cost you even more money than an actual upgrade. The old fixtures are much more likely to leak because of the natural wear and tear caused over the years of usage. And over time, these fixtures also develop a stench, plus it saves you big time on the water costs as well.
Pipe bellies
The pipes that are installed underground, they are subject to natural shifts in the ground. If the changes occur in the pipes like they are forced downward/bellying out, they will restrict your water flow, and sediment will start accumulating, which then leads to recurring clogs. That is when the piping of your house needs to be replaced. A significant portion of the plumbing services we provide involves fixing such piping problems.
Pipes made of outdated materials
If you live in a home that has not been renovated in the last couple of decades, your home pipes may have run their course by now and need to be replaced. Copper and PEX are the prefered materials for repiping your home due to their endurance. Several considerations, such as the placement of the piping, will determine which one you require. Choose Home Mechanics for comprehensive plumbing services.
Plumbing Warning Signs
Some potential catastrophes can be prevented by simply conducting regular plumbing maintenance and checking up on your plumbing fixtures before reaching a point that leaves you in the middle of nowhere.
Minor clogs
Small clogs that pass after a few minutes, or clogs that only seem to slow down drainage may indicate an obstruction in your pipes.
Foul Smells
A consistent foul smell coming from your pipes may indicate a few potential problems; we highly recommend you call a professional immediately.
Toilet clogging when flushing
If your toilet fully clogs consistently when flushing, this is a definite sign that you have an obstruction. This may be too much toilet paper, or a toy a child put down the toilet. We do not recommend attempting to plunge the toilet to force the blockage further down. Give a plumbing professional in Massachusetts a call.
Gurgling in the toilet
Just like a clog, gurgling also indicates a blockage in the drain pipe. Negative air pressure exists in your line and the toilet lets air escape the only way it can go, often causing the gurgling you hear!
Unpleasant odors
An unpleasant odor may indicate many issues, from sewer backup, to faulty wax rings, leaking pipes or again, blockages. This type of problem is best left to a professional plumber with experience in septic, drainage, or leaking pipe repair.
Corroded pipes
Corroded pipes can cause serious damage to your home and one of the main reasons homeowners call an emergency plumber in Massachusetts. Read more about how damaged and corroded pipes wreck havoc on homes.
The faint sound of running water when no water should be running
Besides costing you a lot of money on your water bill, a leak running throughout your house can cause significant damage without you knowing until it is too late.
