Signs You Need Pipe Repair
Wondering if you might have trouble with your pipes or know you have a problem and wondering if you need a plumber? Keep an eye out for the telltale signs that you need professional pipe repairs:- Water out of place: If you’re finding water or dampness anywhere in your home, it doesn’t belong; you probably need a plumber to get to the bottom of the issue before it becomes serious.
- Pests, mold, and damage: Leaking water causes damage to your property, lets mold grow, and feeds pest populations even if you don’t notice the water itself — so keep your eyes open.
- Changes in water pressure: If the water pressure drops in your home, you might have a leak hidden somewhere, letting water escape undetected.
- Frequent plumbing issues: If you have recurring plumbing issues, you might have a more fundamental problem with your pipes warranting repairs.
How To Prevent Frozen Pipes
Frozen pipes can be devastating for a home, with the worst damages coming with the thaw — be sure you know how to prevent the issue in the first place to give your plumbing the best chance at surviving winter undisturbed.- Insulation: Proper insulation on your pipes and around areas like crawl spaces that house those pipes can substantially reduce your risk of frozen pipes.
- Circulation: Make sure your home’s warm air can flow to your pipes — don’t close bathroom doors and vents to save energy and let your pipes get super cold!
- Sealing: Close crawl space entrances, garage doors, and similar openings in your home to give your pipes the best chance of staying warm.
- Dripping: Letting a faucet drip just a little can prevent freezing and prevent the pressure damage that results from freezing.
- Warmth: Make sure you keep your thermostat to a decently warm temperature, no lower than 55 degrees, even if you’re away from your home.
