The Expertise Gap: What DIY Can’t Replace

It’s rarely a good idea to take on plumbing repairs yourself. For one thing, you could unintentionally make the problem worse or create entirely new ones. This could result in costly damage. You could also invalidate existing warranties or create homeowners’ association issues. Fortunately, we’re just a phone call away when help is needed.

A good place to start in avoiding plumbing problems is to contact us about routine maintenance and plumbing inspections at least once a year. To prevent clogged drains, it’s a good idea to place grease and similar materials in separate containers and throw them in the trash. We also recommend watching what you put down your drains and toilets and insulating pipes exposed to the elements to prevent freezing and bursting.

If you’re hesitating to call for professional help, know that even minor issues can quickly turn into something major. Contact us today if you notice:

  • Leaks
  • Low water pressure
  • Inconsistent water temperature
  • Clogged drains
  • Dripping faucets
  • Toilet clogs
