The Top Plumbing Repairs Every House Needs<\/span><\/h2>\n

Every homeowner knows that keeping and maintaining your home\u2019s plumbing system in good working order will save you money in the long term. Keeping on top of the little jobs around the house will be your main goal; while an entire plumbing system may seem a little complicated at first, breaking down the system into its different parts will allow you to find the common faults more easily.\"plumbing-repairs\"<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

1. Blocked Pipes<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the most common problems around anyone\u2019s house is a blocked pipe. The majority of plumbing services are called out to service or repair a blocked pipe at least once a day, but with a few simple techniques, you can reduce your risk of blockage. Ensuring that you are not pouring chemicals or cooking oils and fats will cut your risk of pipe blockage in half, so keep an eye out for what you dispose of carefully.<\/span><\/p>\n

The kitchen and bathroom is where the majority of pipe blockage occurs, so ensure that you are using a pipe-safe detergent and cleaning fluid to allow the waste to be adequately flushed away. Use a simple sink waste catcher to ensure that no larger items end up going down the sink, and clean your bathroom plug holes on a regular basis to avoid expensive call outs.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Water leakage around the house<\/span><\/p>\n

A leaking tap can not only be annoying when you want to enjoy the calm of an afternoon, but they will also ensure you have a hefty water bill at the end of the month. Over a period of a year, it is estimated that the average house will waste up to 10,000 gallons of water, which equates to around 270 washes in your laundry machine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ensuring that all of your taps are correctly tightened will ensure that the waste is halted. Call out your local plumber to inspect your taps and pipes at least once a year so repairs or upgrades can be made. The majority of leaking taps can be repaired with a simple washer or two and a little tightening.<\/span><\/p>\n
