Inconsistent Water Pressure
Faulty water pressure, whether it is too strong or weak, at different settings is a clear sign of a plumbing problem. In most cases, the problem can be attributed to mineral build-up in the water exit points such as taps and showerheads, and thus require cleaning. In other instances, the problem may be due to a clog in the water lines, which impedes normal water flow, and will require cleaning efforts.
Slow Drains
Two signs, namely waste water backing up or taking too long to disappear, usually means a clogged drain. These clogs may be caused by the build-up of grease and grime, tree root intrusion, and the build-up of debris like tissue paper being caught among the roots that invaded your drainpipes. Drain unclogging methods like snaking or hydrojetting are required to remove the build-up and unsure smooth drain system operations.
Puddling in Your Lawn or Yard
If you notice puddling in your lawn or yard, or that the grounds are moist and wet despite the lack of rain, you may be experiencing a leak in your water line or sewer lines. The leak may be coming from a crack along the pipelines or in the bends and joints of the pipe lines. To determine the source of the leak, it is imperative that you seek the assistance of a professional plumber.
Hot Water Problems
Hot water problems come in different forms – from little or no hot water, inconsistent water temperature, leaks in your water heater tanks or lines, discolored water and so on. All these are indicative of water heater problems like sediment build-up or corrosion. If you are using gas powered water heaters and notice a smell of gas, no matter how faint it is, call a plumber immediately and vacate the house.
