There are a number of plumbing issues that can pop up in the home that might require you to hire a plumber to fix.

Kitchen
Your kitchen is full of potential plumbing problems. In most homes these days, there is not only the kitchen sink to deal with but also a garbage disposal and dishwasher. All of these can experience leaks and clogs that might be serious enough to need the specialized knowledge of a plumber. Many refrigerators these days have ice makers, which require a water line that presents another potential kitchen plumbing problem.

Bathroom
The bathroom is another place in the home for the potential for plumbing problems. Toilets can get clogged up or their can be problems with leaks in the water line or in the tank. Sinks and showers present more potential plumbing issues. Drain clogs are common in both of these areas, as are leaks.

Basement
A basement is a potential trouble spot for plumbing issues. Most basements have floor drains, which can become clogged easily. This is where many people have their washing machines and water heaters, which are both potential leak problems. Also, the basement is where water and sewer lines enter and exit the home, leaving the potential for leaks that can cause big problems.

Outside
Hose spigots and sprinkler systems present plumbing issues outside, with leaks the biggest potential problem.
