Most homeowners want to know what the most common plumbing problems are and how to avoid them. Reading the answers to plumbing's most frequently asked questions can help get homeowners started off on the right foot in 2022. 

What Are The Most Common Plumbing Problems Homeowners Should Avoid?

drainsClogged drain repair, toilet repair, burst pipe repair, and backed-up sewer line repair are just a few of the common problems plumbers get calls about every day. Clogged drains are usually a result of the wrong thing being flushed down the drain. 

Whether it’s a clump of hair, baby wipes, or a child's toy, something has to become lodged in the pipe preventing the drain from clearing. Tree roots can also grow into the pipes and cause clogs, sometimes even resulting in burst pipes. Burst pipes are more common in the winter when pipes freeze over, but they can happen all year round. 

Toilets are also notorious for needing constant repairs. This is because most toilets use a valve system to flush, and valves are known to wear out easily and need replacement every once in a while. Tightening loose components and replacing worn-out valves can help to prevent the toilet from running water constantly. 

How to Know When It's Time To Call a Plumber?

callClogged drains, resulting from flushing too much toilet paper, can be fixed with a plunger, but for more severe clogs and back-ups, a professional plumber should be called. Drain cleaning services from a professional plumber are often necessary to fix recurring clogged drains. 

Any sort of leak should be fixed by a plumber right away. Water line leaks can cause serious water damage to the home, leading to structural damage and mold growth. Leaking fixtures should not be left running. If possible, the water should be shut off to keep the leak from spreading until the plumber arrives. 

Gas leaks are another problem that plumbing companies deal with frequently. Gas leaks are extremely dangerous, and if there is ever a gas leak detection in the home, a professional should be called right away. It is recommended to leave the residence until a qualified professional arrives for gas line repair. 

How Does Plumbing Maintenance Prevent Plumbing Problems?

Trusting a professional plumber with system maintenance and repairs can go a long way in improving the longevity of the plumbing system. As soon as a problem is noticed, it should be repaired to prevent it from becoming a larger issue. 

During regularly scheduled maintenance, the plumber will have a chance to evaluate the plumbing system for leaks or broken parts to prevent a problem before it starts. 

To prevent clogged drains and sewer lines, homeowners should be mindful of what goes down the drain. Garbage disposals in kitchen sinks and hair traps in the bathroom drains can help to prevent a buildup of debris leading to blockage. 

Drain cleaning services from a local plumbing company can be scheduled annually or bi-annually as a preventative measure against clogs and backups.
