When you imagine needing a plumber, are you picturing something catastrophic? A burst pipe spraying water several feet, or a toilet overflowing onto the bathroom floor? These are indeed times when a plumber in Akron, OH<\/a> is necessary. But sometimes, the signs that you need help with a plumbing issue are more subtle.  For example, a slow-draining sink<\/a> might not seem urgent but could be the start of a larger issue that requires plumbing repair service<\/a>. Here are some clues that you need a plumber!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Water Heater Not Providing Hot Water?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Are you experiencing low water pressure when you\u2019re using the hot water? Is the water not getting quite hot enough? Strange noises, drips and puddles, or visible rust? Do you have discolored or smelly hot water? It\u2019s time to have your water heater checked out, and the person for that job is a plumber. Whether you need routine maintenance, water heater repair, or a full replacement, we\u2019ve got you covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mysterious Warm Spots on the Floor?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that the majority of water pipe leaks happen in hot water lines? This means that even before you notice a wet spot or water stain on your wall, ceiling, or floor, you might be able to feel the warmth coming through. Sneaky leaks can do a lot of damage, but we\u2019re experts at pinpointing their location and repairing them with minimal inconvenience to you and your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strange Noises Behind the Walls?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Does it sound like there’s a ghost inside the walls of your bathroom? You could be hearing an issue called a “water hammer.” This occurs when there are problems with water pressure or lack of air cushion within parts of the piping in your walls, or when your water heater temperature is wrong. It can make quite a bang! But it\u2019s straightforward to repair it, so you don\u2019t need to jump at those sudden scary sounds anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Are Your Drains Making Noise?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What if your noise is more of a burbling sound than a bang? There are two main causes of burbling noises coming from toilets or sinks, tubs, or shower drains in your home. One is a partial clog, which traps some water and then allows it to gurgle slowly through. The other is trapped sewer gas from a problem with your sewer vent\u2014a situation that requires expert plumbers<\/a> to assess before it becomes dangerous. Call a plumber right away, just in case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signs Your Toilet Needs a Plumber<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A toilet that just keeps running can waste an enormous, expensive amount of water. A toilet that\u2019s reluctant to flush is a huge bother and even a sanitary concern. A toilet that leaks at the base can rot your floor. If you\u2019re not happy with how your toilet is doing, you don\u2019t need to suffer any longer. Just get professional plumbing help to sort it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is Your Home Wasting Water Without You Knowing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps you haven\u2019t noticed a toilet running, a fixture leaking, or water soaking through your walls from a hidden leak. But if your water usage increases, and you don\u2019t know why, it\u2019s certain that the water is going somewhere. Don\u2019t let it become a horrifying surprise later when a wet, moldy wall collapses. Have a plumbing inspection so you can stop wasting water and worrying where it\u2019s ending up.  If you\u2019ve received extremely high water bills<\/a>, you may already have a hidden leak and should act quickly to prevent further damage.
