Plumbing-savvy homeowners sometimes prefer to tackle jobs themselves rather than call a plumber. With the right skills, simple plumbing repairs are a viable DIY project. However, not all Cincinnati homeowners have a good knowledge of plumbing or the desire to DIY plumbing projects. Rest assured; it’s ok to call a plumber for even the smallest plumbing repairs – it’s better to get the job done right by a professional than to risk damage to your home!
If you start a DIY plumbing project and later find it is beyond your capabilities to finish, please reach out to Thomas & Galbraith’s professional plumbing team. We are ready to jump in to get the job finished and prevent damage to your home and plumbing system. From installing a new water heater to leak repairs, you get the fast and reliable plumbing service you need. We dispatch a plumber to your property right away to ensure you’re well taken care of.
Some plumbing issues are inevitable and happen over time, while others are preventable when you know exactly what to do. The Cincinnati plumbers of Thomas & Galbraith are always here to help when you face a plumbing repair situation, but we also want to help you avoid plumbing issues as much as possible.
Below, find key tips from a skilled plumber to help you avoid some of the most common plumbing issues Cincinnati homeowners face:
Many people pick up the phone and call for plumbing service when something isn’t working right. If you follow our guide below, you may find that the problem is something you can easily fix yourself.
Below, our plumbers explain some simple DIY tricks to try when you first notice plumbing problems. If you are uncomfortable with checking any of these things, then you should call for service and let one of our expert plumbing technicians perform service for you.
If a leak is obvious, you may attempt to repair it with fiberglass repair tape or plumber’s putty. This should be done as a temporary fix to stop water damage until a plumber applies to perform a permanent solution. If the leak is behind a wall, under the floor, or in the attic, call a plumber.
Try pouring hot/boiling water into your toilet from waist height. The heat from the water may help dissolve the clog.
Pour a quart of dawn soap down a clogged drain. The soap surrounds the clog and lubricates it so that the next time you run water, the clog should flow out.
Plunging isn’t just for toilets – plunging can also be used to dislodge clogs in sinks and shower or tub drains.
Whatever you do, do not use chemical drain cleaners. The chemicals can cause damage to your pipes, requiring pipe replacement beyond drain cleaning services. It’s best to call a plumber for professional drain cleaning and clog removal if the methods above do not work.
Mineral deposits can build up in your faucet, causing low water pressure. Fill a sandwich bag with vinegar and wrap it around the faucet so that the faucet soaks in the vinegar. Leaving it overnight should give it enough time to dissolve the minerals, freeing up the faucet to provide normal water pressure.
Remove aerators from faucets and leave the part to soak overnight in a cup of vinegar. Use an old toothbrush or cleaning brush to remove deposits.
Try jiggling the handle first. If this does not work, check out the inside of the tank. The lift chain may be wrapped around the lift arm and just need to be straightened out. The float may be just above the water. Bend the arm downward to ensure it makes the water shut off. The flapper at the bottom of the tank might not be making a good seal around the drain hole, so clear away debris to get a tight seal.
The most common plumbing issues a homeowner will face are leaking or dripping faucets, constantly running toilets, a clogged drain or toilet, jammed garbage disposal, and a sewer system backup.
Make sure that your plumber is licensed and insured, provides you with an estimate, cleans up after him/herself, and guarantees the work.
The top plumbing emergencies: failed sump pumps, a burst pipe, sewer backup issue, or your water shut-off valve failing.
A leak in your pipes could damage your home’s infrastructure and foundation and should be addressed as soon as possible.
The first thing you should do is shut off the water. Whenever a plumbing emergency happens, use your water shut-off valve right away. If it’s a major emergency, it’s recommended you turn off your water heater to prevent the unit from getting damaged. Call a plumber, explain the situation, and listen to their recommendation.
