pipe-leaksIt can be difficult to determine when you need to call a plumber. Simply placing a bucket or pan under a dripping supply valve is not the way to handle a leak; it will get worse over time and damage the house. Items offered on TV and the Internet are often touted to “fix anything,” but seldom work. You need to call a plumber if you see any of the following conditions:

• Leaks at a supply valve
• Leaks at joints in the pipes
• Leaks in the middle of the pipe
• Leaks in the attic or wall
• Any leaks in or near the water heater
• Water or sewage is backing up in the sinks or toilet
• Leaks in the yard
• A basement filled with water

Pipes require different repairs according to what they are made of. For example, iron, copper, PEX, PVC and aluminum pipes are all repaired using different substances and tools. Professional plumbers are well trained to repair any type of piping material.

A professional plumber will assess the problem and advise you about what needs to be done to repair it. The repair will be warranted; if the problem persists or the repair fails, he or she will return to ensure the problem is fixed properly. Plumbing companies can be reached 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
