What are the Most Common Plumbing Problems?

  1. Dripping Taps

A dripping tap is not only annoying to the point of driving you insane, it’s also a common and costly problem. A single dripping tap can fill a swimming pool over the space of a year and if you consider how much water is being wasted, this can cost you lots of money over time! The good news is, a dripping tap is usually quite simple to fix so call C.S Crown plumbing and we will get the issue resolved quickly for you.

  1. Poor Water Pressure

Water pressure problems are common however they are a little more complicated to diagnose and repair than a dripping tap. There are many different causes for water pressure issues including blockages, a build up of deposits on faucets, cracked pipes or something as simple as a shut-off valve being closed. A qualified plumber is the best person to diagnose and fix the problem.

  1. Running Toilet

Jiggling the flush button on the toilet is usually enough to stop a toilet from running, temporarily anyway. If you find yourself constantly doing this or juggling the button is no longer working, you may have a more complex issue. This could be anything from sediment build ups to a silent leak.

  1. Drain Blockages

Many of us keep a plunger in the house incase of a drain blockage and usually a little bit of suction is all that’s required to unclog a kitchen sink or shower drain. But if you find plunging doesn’t help, you may have a more serious clog that requires assistance from a plumber.

  1. Leaky Pipes

A number of sources can be blamed for leaky pipes. Structural movement, old pipes and accidental damage- just to name a few! Don’t ignore leaky pipes, get them fixed by an experienced plumber ASAP to save water and money.
