Wastewater issues like sewage backups and smelly drains are very noticeable. When your toilet is overflowing every week or water from your shower drains excruciatingly slowly, it's obvious that you need to call in a professional. However, water supply issues can sometimes disguise themselves very well. They usually come in the form of annoyances, like trickling shower heads or a sink that sometimes pours out water with a slight tint of brown. Problems like these can go unnoticed for a while, and once homeowners are aware of the issue, it can be put on the back burner while taking care of "more pressing concerns". Unfortunately, the consequences of ignoring these subtle warnings can include a costly water pipe replacement and sometimes structural renovations to your home. If caught early enough, the problem may be remedied by a basic water pipe cleaning or affordable water pipe repair. That's why it's important to know the symptoms of water pipe problems so you can be proactive and call a reliable local plumber right away. At Mr. Rooter, we have many years of experience helping homeowners discover hidden pipe troubles. Here are a few common red flags to look out for in your house.

Sudden Loss of Water Pressure

A reduction in water pressure often indicates punctures or leaks in pipes. This becomes more apparent if there is an appropriate amount of water pressure from the main line, but only sections of your home seem to have low pressure. Also, if you have extremely low pressure on a high level of a multi-story house, this could be an indication of a blockage or corrosion buildup in your pipes. If you're pipes are corroding, it's important to get a water pipe replacement as soon as possible.

Rusty Water Coming from the Faucet

Rust can temporarily enter your water supply when work is being done on your neighborhood's water main. Problems like this usually go away within just a few hours. Leave the hot water alone to avoid bringing rust into your water heater tank and avoid using the water entirely if you can. However, if you notice a recurring pattern that remains for days, weeks, or months, then the problem is most likely an internal plumbing issue. If the rust only shows up when using hot water, there may be corrosion in your tank. If it's happening with both hot and cold supply lines, but in specific areas of your home, then you may need to replace a section of corroding pipes. If your entire home is experiencing rusted water, you should get a professional plumbing inspection and repair right away to avoid any potential health hazards for you and your family.

Signs of Water Damage

At first, this may seem like an obvious symptom. Keep in mind that not all water damage presents itself as puddles on the floor or stains on the wall. Many of the areas where leaks may be occurring are out of sight and out of mind. You may need to conduct a basic inspection regularly in these areas to check for potential water damage.

• Strange or unexplained stains on your carpet.
• Buckling or warped wood flooring.
• Bulging, swollen, or cracked drywall.
• Standing puddles of water in the yard.
• Loose caulk or missing grout in bathrooms and kitchen.
• Rust or mold forming in the basement.
