What Are The Top 10 Signs You Need Plumbing Repair or Replacement?

1. Some cold water in your hot shower – While some cold water in your shower may not seem like anything to complain about, it could mean something more. While it’s possible that the fix is as simple as re-lighting the pilot light, the lack of hot water could also indicate it’s time to replace your water heater. Call Goodbee Plumbers Slidell to come out and take a look at your unit.

2. Extra bugs and animals attracted to your yard – Leaks in sewer lines often go unnoticed. But if you see an uptick in the amount of bugs and animals attracted to your yard, it could be because of the added nutrients from the sewer line leak.

3. The smell of mold or mildew – If you have a leak in your home that goes unnoticed, it can often lead to mold and mildew growth. If there’s ever any doubt. call in our experts in Slidell plumbing services because a little bit of mold can grow into a bigger problem if left to its own devices.

4. Gurgle – Always take note of sounds coming from unused appliances. If a bubbling sound is coming from your toilet while you’re using the shower then you likely have a clog in your sewer line and this is the air getting out however it can. These situations can lead to burst pipes, so call in an expert pronto.

5. Low water pressure. If water is not flowing forcefully, don’t worry, the experts at Goodbee Plumbing can help. Whether your aerator needs to be cleaned out or you have cracked or broken pips in the walls or under your home’s foundation, our team of experts is here to help. If your home was also built before 1975, it most likely has galvanized piping, which can rust over time, reducing your water flow. 

6. Faucets won’t stop dripping. If your shower is dripping only 10 times a minute, that’s an extra 500 gallons of water per year. While some drips are easy to fix, others can come from cracked pipes or improperly installed appliances. Call Goodbee Plumbing before the drip worsens, and the bills go up! 

7. Water temperature changes in the show when the toilet is flushed. Most homes built before the late 1980s or early 1990s lack a pressure-balanced value, which is a mechanism that stops that annoying temperature change in the shower when someone flushes the toilet. The experts at Goodbee Plumbing Slidell can replace the shower valves eliminating this problem while not requiring any work on your tiles. 

8. Stains on your plumbing appliances – When you have hard water, it will stain your plumbing appliances because while the water evaporates, the minerals in your water are left there to stain.

9. Damp walls or ceilings. Every homeowner dreads finding water where it doesn’t belong. Not only do damp walls or ceilings look unsightly, but they can also often signal a larger issue in your home, such as leaking pipes or other issues.
