When leaks happen under a sink in the kitchen or bathroom, you’re bound to see it sooner or later. However, since the plumbing system in your home is complex and includes a network of drains and pipes throughout the house, you might not notice all leaks right away. Any pipe in the plumbing system can start to leak and the water lost might be found in the walls, on the floor or ceiling, or even in your yard. You can sometimes guess there’s a leak when you start to smell mold or mildew. But when is the right time to ...

Although it generally happens in older homes, even new homes can experience what’s called ‘water hammer.’ This is the noise inside of pipes which is made at points in your plumbing system where water stops abruptly or the water flow changes the direction it’s taking. It can sound like an annoying hammer which seems to start and stop throughout the day and night, although it typically occurs after things such as the washer or dishwasher finishing a cycle. The rattling sound can usually be minimized by doing one of two things. First, you can try to wrap the pipe with ...

Water is all around us: from the Atlantic Ocean next to Melbourne, Florida, to the many lakes and streams all around the state. While it may seem there is an abundant amount of it, the reality is that only 1% of the water on Earth is readily available for human consumption. The majority of unusable water is in the form of salt water in the oceans or frozen water in glaciers or polar ice caps. At the current rate of consumption, fresh water is decreasing much faster than the Earth is able to replenish it. When you’re committed to decreasing ...

If you’ve recently purchased an older home or have been living in your home since before to 1970, it is very important to have a licensed master plumber take a look at the home’s piping. Prior to 1970, pipes were often made out of lead, which has health hazards. Water passing through lead pipes isn’t harmful since it doesn’t have time to absorb the lead. What is dangerous is when the water is stagnant in the pipes, waiting for someone to turn it on. When the water sits it begins to absorb the lead, and as a person later goes ...

One of the most frequently used but least understood systems in a home is the plumbing system. While it’s easy to learn about and understand, knowing about it can also save you money in the long run. Piping in a home consists of many pipes which are necessary to supply, distribute, or drain water to or from various fixtures and appliances in the home. When they are working properly, it saves money. Issues such as leaky faucets or old, inefficient water heaters can cause a higher water bill, while a higher electricity bill from heating the water too frequently can ...

Over time, dirt, grim and hair can begin to clog sink and shower drains. This results in water draining slowly and even backing up into the sink or tub. While some over the counter products can help to alleviate the dirt and grime, if there is hair clogged in the pipes it can be very difficult to get rid of, especially when it’s farther down the drain than most drain sticks can reach. Calling a plumber when this happens means you’ll have the drain running as good as new in no time. A licensed plumber has all the right tools ...
