5 Common Plumbing Problems to Be Aware Of

As a homeowner, one of the parts of your house that you should not totally neglect is its plumbing system. Carrying water all throughout your home and taking sewage out of it, your plumbing is one of the most hardworking parts of your house—but it doesn't always work properly. Here are five situations when it's time to call in the plumbers.


  • Low Water Pressure. Weak water flow in your shower or faucet may indicate a clog or maybe a leak. Have your plumbing looked at as soon as possible to determine the problem and fix it.

  • Leaks. If left alone, leaks can cause water damage and result in a lot of wasted water. Find the leak and repair it quickly to halt the problem.

  • Slow Drainage.  Clogged drains don't happen overnight. A slow drainage is a sign that something is wrong along the pipelines.

  • Dripping Faucets. A common annoyance, but indicative that either your faucet washers are wearing down or are loose. Have it fixed to avoid that nagging, dripping noise as well as prevent the waste of water.


  • No Hot Water.  Finally, your home may suddenly lack hot water. Hot water is a convenience produced by your water heater. If it's malfunctioning, you may end up having to take a lot of cold showers. Contact your plumber immediately to avoid this problem.
