6 Plumbing Maintenance Tips to Help Avoid Repairs

We believe that proactive plumbing maintenance is the key to avoiding costly repairs and ensuring the longevity of your plumbing system.

Here are some essential tips to keep your residential plumbing in optimal condition:

  • Regularly Check for Leaks: Inspect your faucets, pipes, and fixtures for any signs of leaks. Even a small drip can waste a significant amount of water and lead to water damage. If you notice a leak, contact us immediately for prompt repair.
  • Avoid Clogging: Prevent clogged drains by using drain strainers or screens to catch hair, food particles, and other debris. Additionally, refrain from pouring grease, oil, or harsh chemicals down the drains, as they can cause blockages.
  • Maintain Water Pressure: Monitor the water pressure in your home. High water pressure can strain your plumbing system and cause damage over time. If you notice excessively high pressure, consider installing a pressure regulator to protect your pipes.
  • Insulate Pipes: Protect your pipes from freezing temperatures by insulating them. Frozen pipes can burst and cause extensive water damage. Insulation sleeves or wrapping the pipes with heat tape are effective preventive measures.
  • Flush Your Water Heater: Sediment buildup in your water heater can reduce its efficiency and lifespan. Regularly flush your water heater to remove sediment and ensure optimal performance.
  • Schedule Professional Inspections: Call our professional plumbers for regular inspections of your plumbing system. We will identify potential issues before they escalate, saving you from unexpected emergencies.

Remember, prevention is key when it comes to plumbing maintenance. By following these tips, you can help prevent some plumbing repairs and enjoy a reliable plumbing system.

Common Plumbing Problems in Bowling Green

Some plumbing problems are consistent across the nation. From clogged toilets to broken water heaters, we’ve seen and repaired them all.

Here are some of the most common plumbing problems we see on a day-to-day basis:

  • Clogged Toilets. No plumbing problem is more common than the average clogged toilet; however, these plumbing repairs might be more intricate than you think. If your toilet is a chronic clogger, you might have another problem on your hand other than just using too much toilet paper. If your toilet is an older, low-flow model, chances are this could be causing your issue. Modern low-flow toilets are constructed so well that they don’t cause clogging issues, but older models don’t generate enough pressure to push all material through the drains and into the sewer. Let us take a look to diagnose the problem!
  • Broken Garbage Disposals. Few people who own garbage disposal fully understand what can or can’t go down the drain. A good rule of thumb for keeping your drain clear of hazardous material is to compare it to your teeth. Your teeth couldn’t easily tear through fibrous vegetables or bones, so why should your garbage disposal be able to? Other materials such as coffee grounds, rice, and eggshells can also cause a buildup of material in your garbage disposal, which can prevent it from functioning correctly. Some garbage disposals just need a good cleaning. Look up some video tutorials for how best to accomplish this safely, but if you’re not comfortable handling your garbage disposal unit, no problem. Our team can help!
  • Low Water Pressure. Low water pressure can be hard to diagnose, which is why it’s best to call an experienced plumber to take a look. The problem could be clog-related, but it could also indicate a leak somewhere in your system. Our team can use video camera inspection to determine the source of the problem.
  • Leaks. Leaks can range from mildly annoying to severe and damaging. From leaking faucets to burst pipes, leaks can not only increase the cost of your water bill but can cause water damage and mold growth in your home, which can cause other health issues. The best way to determine if you have a leak is to keep an eye on your water bill. Unexplained increases in your bill are usually a signal that you have a leak somewhere in your system.
  • Clogged Drains. No matter how vigilant you are about your drains, you will probably experience a clog or two. Some clogs are simple enough to resolve with a plunger, homemade drain snake, or boiling water. However, some clogs are too deep for the average homeowner to reach. That’s where our drain cleaning services can help. Our team offers HydroScrub Jetting, a technology that uses high water pressure to push out the clog and completely clean your drains.
  • Sewer System Backups. Sewer system backups are sometimes hard to catch if they’re not severe. Usually, if you have several slow or clogged drains throughout the home, that’s an indication that you have a clog in your sewer system. More severe cases can even cause sewage to back up into your sink or shower, which is not only smelly but can be hazardous to your health. Call a skilled, licensed plumber as soon as you suspect a sewer system issue in your home.

  • Can you repair a leaking water shut-off valve? It is possible!

    Though, if you do not know how to shut off your water or do not have the proper tools, it is in your better interest to reach out to an experienced plumber near you at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Bowling Green. Our professionals are trained, licensed, and backed by decades of experience. Reach out to us today to request a job estimate!

    If you want to take a chance at troubleshooting, below are 3 ways you can fix a water shut-off valve leak:

    Step 1: Tighten the Packing Nut

    1. Turn off your water before your main water shut-off valve.
    2. If you see some threads underneath your water shut-off valve’s packing nut, that means you have some room to tighten it. Use a crescent wrench to tighten it by turning it clockwise gently. If this doesn’t stop the leak, move on to step 2.

    Step 2: Replace or Add New Teflon or Graphite Cord

    1. Replace or add a new Teflon or graphite cord in the nut. Start by removing the handle by unscrewing the top screw. If mineral deposits make this difficult, use vinegar to break them down. This may be a challenge because the components should soak for 15 - 20 minutes, but if you are able to, it will work!
    2. When you have removed the screw, loosen the handle. Take care to not damage the pipe going in or out. You may use a crescent wrench to carefully pry it front and back off to carefully remove it. Keep it on the nut to ensure that the valve remains closed before removing the nut completely.
    3. When you have removed the nut, clean it off, and prepare to add Teflon or graphite cord to replace the packing material.
    4. Clean up the stem with some plumber sandpaper and lightly rub off the mineral deposits without damaging the teeth and the stem. Take the packing cord and wrap it around the stem at least twice.
    5. Reintroduce the clean packing nut and make sure that the Teflon or graphite cord is tucked underneath it when you are putting it back in place. The nut should not fully reach the bottom because of the added cord -- you should be able to see some exposed threads at the bottom of the nut. If you do not see exposed threads, add more cords. Note: When tightening the nut, it does not have to be very tight -- it only needs to be secure for now. When you test with water, you can tighter it further to stop the leak.
    6. Open the water to check if the leak is still there. If it is, tighten the nut with a crescent wrench. If the leak continues, turn off the water and go to step 3.

    Step 3: Disassemble and Add a New Flat Washer

    1. Remove the handle, packing nut, and bonnet nut, and replace the flat washer. The bonnet nut can be very difficult to remove -- remember to not put too much torque on your pipes because this could damage them. If the bonnet nut is giving you trouble, extreme heat must be applied to the pipes around it. If you do not have a tool for this, it is best to leave it with the professionals at our plumber company. Call for an estimate!
    2. If you are able to remove the bonnet nut, take it to your local hardware store to get the right flat washer to replace it.
    3. If there is still a leak, add some Teflon cord or tape to seal the bonnet nut when replacing it.
    4. Turn off the valve and turn it on at the curb to set the valve gain.

    If this still does not solve your water shut-off valve leak, simply leave it to a professional plumber at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Bowling Green. Our skilled technicians are available 24 hours a day for any of your plumbing needs — big or small, we’ve seen it all.
