Common Questions About Home Plumbing

The most common plumbing problems that homeowners in Fort Collins and Boulder, CO, typically encounter include:

  • Dripping Faucets – This is not only annoying but also a waste of water and money if left untreated.
  • Slow Draining Sinks – This can be caused by a blockage that is restricting water flow.
  • Clogged Bath or Shower Drains – Hair and soap can easily clog bath or shower drains.
  • Clogged Toilets – This is a common issue that can be caused by flushing things not meant to be flushed.
  • Running Toilet – A toilet that runs constantly can waste up to 200 gallons of water per day.
  • Faulty Water Heater: If you’re not getting any hot water, your water heater might be the culprit.
  • Low Water Pressure – Often a problem in older homes, it can be caused by leaks, clogs, or incorrectly sized pipes.
  • Leaky Pipes: Most common in winter, leaky pipes can cause significant water damage.
  • Garbage Disposal Problems – Misuse (like the wrong kind of food waste) can break it.
  • Sewer System Backups – It’s a serious problem that should be dealt with immediately.

Each issue requires a unique solution, which our professional and experienced plumbers are adept at providing.

Our advanced water jetting service is your best bet to flush out the pipes in your plumbing system. This safe, thorough, professional cleaning method uses high-pressure water to effectively clear build-ups and blockages without damaging your pipes, unlike some do-it-yourself methods that can do more harm than good and lead to more costly repairs.

Tree roots can get entangled in your plumbing and become a major problem. They have the ability to invade and clog your pipes, causing serious damage and potentially leading to an expensive rehabilitation project. Thankfully, our world-class maintenance and regular inspection services can help identify and mitigate the threat of tree root invasion before any damage occurs.

Water damage can be prevented by staying vigilant and maintaining your plumbing system regularly. Always check for leaks, dripping faucets, and unusual water consumption. Equipping your home with water leak detectors and ensuring proper sealing around doors and windows can also be helpful. It’s beneficial to consult with our professional plumbers at Allen Service for early detection and remediation of potential issues.

A plumbing emergency is typically a situation that requires immediate attention due to the risk of extensive damage or hazards. This includes severe leaks, burst pipes, sewage backups, or an uncontrolled flow of water. These emergencies can cause significant damage to your property, potentially leading to costly repairs, and may also pose health risks due to potential water contamination.

Disposing waste properly is absolutely essential to prevent clogged pipes. One easy way to avoid this is by not flushing items like paper towels, feminine hygiene products, or wet wipes down the toilet. It’s also important to be mindful of what you pour down your kitchen sink, avoiding the disposal of grease or food remnants. By using drain guards and scheduling regular plumbing maintenance, you can effectively prevent clogs and keep your pipes running smoothly.

Taking care of your plumbing system is crucial for longevity and preventing costly repairs. Regular inspections, drain cleanings, and checking for leaks and corrosion are essential to identify potential issues early on. Preserving your system’s optimal performance means hiring a professional plumber to provide comprehensive diagnostics and inspections. By doing so, you can have peace of mind knowing your plumbing is in good hands and will continue to operate smoothly.

Dealing with a burst pipe requires prompt action. Start by shutting off the main water supply to prevent additional water damage. Next, contact a skilled plumber without delay. They will assess the damage, carry out necessary repairs, and provide guidance on mitigating potential water damage. Remember, addressing these emergencies promptly is crucial to avoid more severe issues from arising.

Waiting to call a plumber can lead to further damage and increased repair costs. As a general rule, you should contact a plumber as soon as you notice any abnormalities in your plumbing system, such as leaks, strange sounds, or unusual odors. For emergencies like burst pipes, you should call a plumber immediately.

The cost of plumbing repair varies greatly depending on the nature, severity, and parts required to resolve the issue. Allen Service offers transparent pricing and detailed quotes, providing affordable plumbing solutions for our Northern Colorado neighbors.

While drain chemicals can be effective in clearing blockages, they are generally not recommended due to their corrosive nature. These chemicals can cause damage to your pipes, mainly if they are old or made of certain materials. Additionally, they pose health and environmental risks. Instead, consider safer alternatives like using a plunger or a plumber’s snake or hiring a professional if the clog persists.

If you have a slow-draining sink, initial steps include using a plunger or a hand auger to remove any visible blockages. It’s also beneficial to periodically clean the pop-up stopper. If the problem persists, it might signify a deeper issue in your plumbing system. In such cases, we recommend contacting a professional plumber to diagnose and address the issue effectively.

When your toilet overflows, immediately stop the water flow by turning off the water valve, usually located behind the toilet. Then, use a plunger to try to clear the blockage. If this doesn’t work, or if overflows continue, contact our professional plumbers as soon as possible to avoid further water damage and to resolve the underlying issue.

It is generally recommended to have your septic system serviced every 3-5 years. However, the exact frequency can depend on factors such as the size of your household, the amount of wastewater generated, the volume of solids in the wastewater, and the size of your septic tank. Regular servicing helps maintain the system’s functionality and prevents costly repairs.

If you discover a leak in your pipes, promptly shut off the water supply to prevent further damage. If possible, place a bucket under the leak to catch any dripping water. Avoid attempting complex DIY fixes that could exacerbate the problem. Instead, contact our plumbing experts immediately for a proper diagnosis and repair.

Knowing when to replace your plumbing fixtures depends on a few signs. These include persistent leaks, noticeable rust or corrosion, frequent clogs, water discoloration, or a significant drop in water pressure. Age is also a factor, as fixtures over 20 years old often require replacement. Always consult a certified plumbing professional if you’re unsure.

The type of materials for your plumbing largely depends on your specific needs and local regulations. Common materials include PVC for drainpipes, copper for water supply lines due to its durability, and PEX for its flexibility and resistance to both heat and cold. Always consult a licensed plumber to choose the best materials for your plumbing system.

Preventive maintenance for your plumbing system begins with routinely checking for leaks, rust, or abnormal sounds. Regular visual inspections of your plumbing, draining sediment from your water heater, and gently cleaning fixtures can go a long way. Regularly clean drains to prevent clogs, routinely check water pressure, and avoid flushing non-biodegradable items down the toilet. We also recommend seasonal preparations to combat the harsh weather changes.

Recognizing the need for a professional plumbing service often comes down to the severity and complexity of the issue. Persistent leaks, severe clogs, decreased water pressure, or unusual noises are indicators. Do not wait until an emergency arises. Regular maintenance checks by professional plumbers can help prevent major issues and ensure the longevity of your plumbing system.
