FAQs
Plumbing FAQs
How do I prevent clogged drains?
You prevent clogged drains by being mindful of what you put down them and keeping up with routine maintenance. Certain things should never go down your drain, including:
- Fats, oils, and grease
- Hair
- Starchy foods, such as potato peels, rice, and pasta
- Eggshells
- Stringy foods, such as asparagus and onion skins
- Hard objects like bones and fruit pits
- Coffee grounds
If you use a garbage disposal in your kitchen sink, flush it weekly. Fill up the sink with hot water and a squirt of dish soap, then pull the plug and let the water clear out the buildup.
In your bathroom, use a drain strainer to keep hair from clogging it. Only flush toilet paper and human waste down the toilet. Avoid flushing cat litter, floss, cotton swabs, and other items.
How often should I replace my water heater?
Most tank water heaters require replacement every 8 to 12 years as they wear out. Tankless models have a shorter lifespan than traditional models, typically lasting 6–8 years.
Signs it’s time to replace your water heater include:
- No longer getting enough hot water
- Water that looks rusty or discolored
- Hearing popping and banging noises
When should I call a plumbing professional?
You should call a professional any time you need help with your plumbing. The exact timing of your call depends on the issue.
Call immediately (even after hours) if you face a plumbing emergency, such as:
- Burst pipes
- No hot water
- Sewage backing up
Minor issues, like a leaky faucet or a slow drain, can often wait until the next business day.
What are the most common plumbing issues?
The most common plumbing issues include:
- Clogs and blockages: Clogs and blockages can happen in toilets, showers, sinks, and other fixtures, or deeper in your drain and sewer line. While a plunger handles minor clogs, recurring ones often require professional attention.
- Toilets: Toilets can experience a variety of problems, including leaks, a running toilet or one that does not flush. Any toilet issues like these should be addressed sooner rather than later.
- Leaks: Any type of leak, whether from a pipe or fixture, requires urgent attention. Leaving it unresolved can cause water damage. Leaks usually occur due to a crack, blockage, or an improper seal.
Why is my faucet leaking?
Most leaky faucets are caused by worn internal seals or mineral buildup. A plumber examines the leak's location to determine the most likely cause. For example, a worn seal usually causes leaking at the base of the faucet or around the handle. Temporary leaking for a few minutes after turning off the faucet often happens from mineral buildup at the end of the spout.
