Age, lack of maintenance, and weather conditions are just some of the factors that can cause plumbing problems (amongst many others). While sometimes you may be able to solve simple issues through DIY methods, chances are, that you will need a professional for most, if not all of your issues.
The best way to avoid big problems is to get your plumbing professionally inspected regularly. This will help you catch any underlying problems, saving the need for bigger repairs or even replacements in the future.
In this post, we highlight some minor and major plumbing issues you might run across, and how our Kingston and Brockville plumbing services can help.
Pipe Burst
Bursting and/or leaky pipes can get very messy, very quickly. The potential causes of a pipe burst include improper installation, unfavorable weather conditions, aging, damage, rough handling, and lack of proper protection.
A busted pipe can affect your entire plumbing system and cause huge expenses if left unchecked for a long time. So we can stress enough the importance of getting regular maintenance checks of your plumbing system.
Clogged Drains
There are a lot of things that can cause your drains to be clogged, from accumulated hair to soap scum or small pieces of food. When left unchecked, your drains can get smelly and grubby, and begin to clog.
While there are some DIY remedies for minor clogs when it becomes a major issue reach out to our Toshack team to get it resolved properly.
Small Leaks
Prolonged leaks will not only just raise your water bills, but they can also potentially cause bigger problems like mold or rust on the exposed surfaces. One great way to save yourself the trouble is to get leaks fixed as soon as you notice them. You should also, generally, be gentle with faucets to avoid leaks.
