4 Common Plumbing Problems

Plumbing problems come in many forms. Some of the most common issues we deal with include the following:

  • Dripping Faucets: A dripping faucet not only wastes water but the sound can be aggravating. It is often caused by a worn-out washer or faulty internal components.
  • Leaky Pipes: Leaky pipes can result from corrosion, high water pressure, or shifts in the foundation of your home. They can cause water damage to walls, floors, and ceilings, leading to mold growth and structural issues over time.
  • Running Toilets: A running toilet is not only annoying but can waste a significant amount of water. It occurs when the flapper valve or other internal components fail to seal properly, causing water to flow continuously into the toilet bowl.
  • Low Water Pressure: Low water pressure can make daily tasks like showering or washing dishes frustrating. It can be caused by various factors, including clogged pipes, water leaks, or problems with the municipal water supply.

The Signs You Need Plumbing Repair

Recognizing the signs that you need plumbing repair helps to prevent further damage and costly repairs. Ignoring these signs can lead to more extensive issues and potential water damage in your home. Here are some common red flags that indicate it’s time to call our Massapequa plumbing repair pros:

  • Spiking Water Bills: If you notice a significant increase in your water bill without any explanation, it could indicate a hidden water leak or a plumbing issue.
  • Rotten Egg Smell: A foul odor, similar to rotten eggs, coming from your taps could indicate a gas line leak or contamination in your water supply. This smell is often caused by the presence of hydrogen sulfide gas, which can be harmful to your health.
  • Slow Drains: If multiple drains in your home are running slowly or are frequently clogged, it could indicate a blockage in the main sewer line. This can lead to backups and potential damage to your plumbing system.
  • Low Water Pressure: If you notice a significant decrease in water pressure when using your shower or faucets, it could indicate a blockage in the pipes or a problem with the water supply. Low water pressure can make daily tasks difficult and may be a sign of underlying plumbing issues.
  • No Hot Water: If you are experiencing a sudden decrease in the amount of hot water or no hot water at all, it could be due to issues with your water heater. This can be caused by a faulty heating element, a malfunctioning thermostat, or sediment buildup in the tank.
  • Visible Wear and Tear: Cracked pipes, rusted fittings, or leaks around plumbing fixtures are visible signs of wear and tear. These signs should not be ignored as they can lead to water damage and potentially compromise the integrity of your plumbing system.
  • Lush Green Grass: If you notice areas of your lawn that are consistently wet or have lush green patches, it could indicate a hidden water leak. This often occurs underground and can lead to water waste.

Very thankful for Chivalry! Our central air stopped working on a hot & humid day. We called & a technician was sent to our home early the next morning. The woman that answered the phone (Savanah) was very polite & helpful. She patiently answered all my questions & assured me that I would receive a call when the technician was on his way to my home, which I did. Technician Nick showed up to our home & was extremely nice. He quickly figured out the problem& had it fixed in no time. The price we paid for parts & labor was very fair. We will definitely use Chivalry again & highly recommend them to anyone needing heating & cooling service.

Review for Chivalry Plumbing I had a persistent leak in my basement, and another plumbing company told me I needed to replace my entire sewer line from the house to the street — a $10,000 job. Thankfully, I got a second opinion from Chivalry Plumbing. David and Eric came out, carefully assessed the situation, and correctly diagnosed the issue: a corroded pipe that the other company completely missed. Their honest and accurate diagnosis saved me thousands of dollars and, more importantly, actually solved the problem. David and Eric were professional, pleasant, and easy to work with throughout the process. I’m very grateful for their help and hope this finally puts an end to my plumbing issues. Highly recommended!

My tub was not draining and we called Chivalry plumbing for the first time. My husband mentioned he noticed the trucks in the neighborhood. David and Eric came to evaluate the situation and told us that there were roots clogging up the sewer pipe. I have to say that David and Eric did a fabulous job. They are very thorough, clean and neat. Everything is running great and I highly recommend Chivalry plumbing and of course David and Eric are the best. Carol and John Annunziata
