Leaky Faucet fixed with American Plumbing
There are several ways you can detect a leaky faucet as well as any other major plumbing issues. More times than not, as someone who knows their home very well, you can tell when something is out of the ordinary. It’s imperative that as a homeowner, you inspect different areas of your home regularly. For example, the next time you’re in your basement or under the kitchen sink, take a look at your pipes and see if they’re discolored in any way. If there’s any rusting or discoloration, it’s a strong sign that there’s moisture present. This could mean there’s dripping from a sink or drain line or a slow leak in the supply line. Catching something like this early could mean saving time and money on a more serious plumbing problem.
Some indicators of major plumbing issues are slow drains, drops in water pressure during the winter caused by frozen pipes, spiking water bills, bubbling ceiling or wall paint, green patches in the yard due to additional fluids, wobbly toilets, and colored water coming out of your faucets. Some of these issues could be resolved by simply removing a clog or tightening a bolt, but when it comes to making sure that these issues don’t have a more serious underlying problem, it might be time to call a plumber for a leaky faucet. They can better diagnose what is going on and fix it promptly.
In some cases, a slow stream of water or low water pressure indicates an issue in distribution. If it happens in more than one spot in the house, it could indicate a problem at the water main or an active leak in the supply line. Another sign of a leaky faucet is smelling a sewer-like odor. Drain traps have vents that keep sewer gas from entering your home. They channel sewer odor up to the roof while the drain traps stop sewer odors from coming through the sink drain. So if you smell the sewer gas in your home, chances are a trap has run dry or a vent line has cracked.
