FAQs

  • A burst pipe requires immediate action. First, shut off the water supply at the main valve to prevent further flooding. Next, turn off the electricity in the affected area to avoid the risk of electrocution. Once these steps are taken, call a 24-hour plumber in your area.

  • Low water pressure can result from various factors, including sediment buildup in pipes, a partially closed shut-off valve, or a leak in the plumbing system. To improve water pressure, inspect the shut-off valve, clean faucet aerators, and address any visible leaks.

  • Leaky faucets are a common plumbing issue and can waste a significant amount of water over time. The most frequent culprits are worn-out gaskets, valves, or o-rings. While some leaks can be fixed by replacing these parts, persistent leaks may indicate a more serious issue, such as pipe corrosion. If you are unsure, it's best to consult a plumber for an accurate diagnosis and repair.

  • To prevent frozen pipes during winter, insulate exposed pipes and disconnect garden hoses. Allowing indoor faucets to drip during extreme cold can help prevent freezing. Proper insulation and preventive measures can protect pipes from freezing and potential damage.
