Common Issues that Affect Water Lines

Although water lines are built to last for decades, they tend to experience a wide range of issues from time to time. Some problems come with aging pipes or natural wear and tear, while others occur due to lack of maintenance. Luckily, Barron Plumbing & Heating can offer you the plumbing services you need to get through common and uncommon water line troubles alike. Below are some of them:

Leaks

Leaks can occur due to clogs, incorrect pipe laying, corrosion, cracked seals, pipe joint damage, or cracked pipes. But regardless of what’s causing the problem, you should address it quickly. Even minor, seemingly harmless leaks can waste a considerable amount of water daily and eventually cause significant damage, leading to costly plumbing repair services.

Burst Pipes

High water pressure, shifting ground, extremely cold temperatures, improperly positioned pressure valves, and heavy traffic can cause pipes to burst. Broken water pipes can result in flooding, warped walls, and damaged ceilings and floors. Let a plumber from our team regularly inspect and maintain your water lines to prevent such issues from occurring.

Clogged Pipes

Over time, magnesium and calcium molecules will settle in your water lines, leaving a residue. This can build up and clog pipes throughout your home, mainly shower heads and faucets, reducing the water pressure on these fixtures. Certified plumbers from a reputable plumbing company can help remove these clogs, but installing a water softening system can serve as an extra layer of protection and help avoid problems down the line.
