Does your Santa Cruz home experience a lot of plumbing issues? Well, if you are facing any of the items in this list, you’re not alone.
It’s frustrating when your home’s plumbing fails to work the way you expect it, but the right plumber can help fix these issues for good. Check out the most common Santa Cruz plumbing issues as seen by the Anytime Plumbing Inc. team, and reach out to us 24/7 for support in removing them:
1. Clogged Toilets
Clogged toilets tend to occur a lot more often during the summer when this specific part of your bathroom is used more often. Flushing improper items down the toilet can lead to some pretty bug clogs that require an expert to fix. If your toilet gets clogged often, you may have a bigger piping issue on your hands.
2. Clogged Garbage Disposals
Like with toilets, throwing the wrong item down the garbage disposal can lead to a serious clog in the garbage disposal. If you’re not careful regarding what you throw in it, you can even end up creating permanent damage over time.
3. Clogged Pipes
Most Santa Cruz homeowners have little to no difficulties removing shallow clogs from their pipes. There are loads of effective and safe DIY methods to do it. The problem comes when your clogs from farther down the pipe, which renders most DIY tools and solutions useless.
But another cause for concern is frequent clogs. If you’ve just removed a clog from a pipe, and then experience another clog just a few weeks after, there could be a bigger issue than the accumulation of soap and hair. Reach out to a Santa Cruz CA plumber for a more in-depth inspection.
4. Leaks
Leaky pipes, faucets, or even toilets are a common plumbing issue a lot of Santa Cruz residents face. Over time, these fixtures can wear out and not do their job right, cause water to seep through and weigh down your water bill.
Sometimes, tightening the right screw can fix the issue, but not always. Ignore leaks can turn into bursts if you ignore them!
5. Backed-up Sewer Lines
Back-ep sewer lines are really no fun for a household, and they are very common especially during times of the year with adverse weather conditions. A stronger thunderstorm can be enough to cause some pretty back clogs in your sewer lines, so make sure you have them inspected or even upgraded if needed.
