There are times when plumbing problems are simple to fix. When you have minor plumbing problems, you may be able to address them on your own. But more serious plumbing problems call for professional care. You can keep reading to learn more about four times that you want to call a professional plumber instead of attempting any DIY repairs.
Then, call our team for plumber service in Staten Island, NY, anytime you need us. We are here for all of your plumbing needs, both big and small. In fact, while we’re at your home for a small repair, we can go ahead and complete an entire plumbing checkup to make sure all of the parts, pieces, and connections are in good working order.
Clogs Across Your Entire Home
You can call us anytime you have a tough clog. But for minor clogs, you may be able to break them down yourself with a drain snake. However, if you have clogs that extend across your entire home and affect all of your drains, that’s a red flag of a deeper problem.
There may be an issue with sewer drainage or your septic tank getting full if you have one. No matter what the problem is, our team needs to complete an inspection and get down to the root of the problem so that we can fix it. If you allow slow drains to continue, sewage may begin backing up into your home as a result.
Low Water Pressure
Just like clogs, you can always call us if you have a single faucet with low water pressure. But if all of the faucets across your home have low water pressure, that points to a larger problem. We often find that tree roots grow through pipes under the ground and break them open.
You may have water leaking out in your yard before ever reaching your home, leaving you with low water pressure. Aside from low water pressure, you can also look for signs of standing water in your yard when you haven’t watered it or it hasn’t rained.
Plans to Make Upgrades
If you want to upgrade any part of your plumbing system, it’s a good idea to invest in the expertise of a plumbing technician. For example, if you have an older home, and you want to upgrade all of the faucets, you need to consider that some where all of the plumbing in your home may also need to be upgraded. Older pipes may not be as efficient as your new fixtures.
Leaks
Leaks can happen for a variety of reasons. You may have a leak that is easy to identify under a sink or around a bathtub. Alternately, you may have a toilet that runs even when it is not being flushed. Or maybe you have signs of water damage along a ceiling and floor without any explanation.
No matter how big or small the leak is, our team is ready to help. We encourage you to give us a call instead of attempting any DIY repairs. It’s possible that you could fix the problem only partially or do more damage and still need to call our team anyway.
