Because plumbing pipes are hidden behind walls and beneath the soil, homeowners won’t know they have a plumbing problem until something backs up. With that said, there are still ways to know you need plumbing services in Beaver, PA.
Corrosion
When metal comes into contact with water, it corrodes. Even if your pipes have a lifespan of 50 years and over, corrosion happens from the inside out. It happens in the supply line first, because that’s the area of heaviest use.
Your water will look rusty and brownish when corrosion is present. Flakes of corrosion may even come out of the tap.
Leaking Pipes
You’ll notice before the water spots appear on walls and ceilings that you have leaking pipes. The water pressure will drop like a rock, and it will take longer for a vessel to drain. Call for plumbing services in Beaver, PA, immediately.
Low Water Pressure
Another way you’ll know you have plumbing problems is low water pressure. Somewhere deep underground, you could have holes in your sewer pipes, pipes that have separated, broken seals on joints, and/or blocked sewer lines. This costs you money every day it’s allowed to continue.
These reasons you need a plumber are all out of sight (and out of mind.) There are plenty of signs you can see such as a running toilet or leaky faucet. It’s the ones you can’t see, though, that causes the most trouble. Miller Plumbing Heating Cooling Electric knows them all and is standing by to help when you contact us today!
