PLUMBING FIXTURE REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT

It's common for plumbing fixtures to need occasional repair or replacement. Whether you're dealing with a leaky faucet, a clogged drain, or another issue, knowing how to approach the problem is key. Sometimes, you can handle repairs yourself; other times, a professional plumber is necessary.

DIY Repairs

For minor issues, you can often do it yourself. For example, a leaky faucet might just need a washer replacement. A slow-draining sink, often caused by soap scum, hair, or food particles, can sometimes be cleared with a plunger or a plumber's snake.

When Replacement is Needed

Sometimes, replacement is the only option. If your toilet constantly runs, you might need to replace the flapper valve. When replacing a fixture, first turn off the water supply to that area. Then, use a wrench to loosen the nuts and bolts holding the old fixture in place before removing it.

Why Call a Professional?

If you're unsure about a repair or replacement, it's always best to consult a professional plumber. They can assess the situation, offer expert advice, and have access to specialized tools that make the job easier and faster.
