Common Plumbing Problems
Understanding common plumbing issues can help you identify problems early and prevent costly repairs.
Most Common Issues
Leaky Faucets
Dripping faucets waste water and increase utility bills. Most leaks are caused by worn washers or O-rings.
Clogged Drains
Slow-draining sinks and tubs are usually caused by hair, soap, or food debris buildup.
Running Toilets
A constantly running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons of water per day.
Low Water Pressure
Reduced water pressure can indicate pipe corrosion, leaks, or mineral buildup.
