2 Times To Call For a Professional Plumber

There are some DIY plumbing projects that you can handle on your own. But there are other times when plumbing problems exceed your abilities and you need to call the experts. If you need a plumber in O’Fallon, MO, our team is who you want to call. 

We are plumbing experts and we can help with the toughest jobs, no matter how big or small they are. We’ve seen it all. If you’re not sure what plumbing problems require expert care, you can keep reading to learn more about two times that you should bypass any DIY attempts and enlist the help of an expert plumber. 

Major Leak

If you have a leaky faucet, there’s a pretty good chance that you can stop at your local hardware store, get a replacement, and install it over the weekend. But if you have a major leak that is causing damage to your home, it’s time to call in an expert. If you can, turn off the source of water to prevent a leak from doing more damage. If the leak is small enough, you can put a bucket or tub underneath it to catch water.

But a lot of times, leaks happen out of sight and you don’t know about them until you begin to see the damage by way of water stains or mold and mildew growth. Either way, you want to give us a call to help you fix it. We would like to dissuade you from searching online for your own fix for major plumbing problems.

If you don’t have the expertise needed to fix the problem correctly, you can actually cause more damage. We can help you out no matter what the problem or what time of day it is. That’s what emergency plumbing services are for!

Whole-House Clogs

If you have slow-draining sinks and tubs in your house, that’s a sign that you have some kind of clog at a major point in your plumbing system. Clogs can also occur in the lines providing water supply to your house and cause reduced water pressure when you turn on your faucets. If you’re having either of these problems, give us a call. We can pinpoint the source of the clog and fix it so that you can enjoy water that drains quickly and has strong water pressure.

Most of the time, when you have a clog that is affecting plumbing across your entire house, it’s caused by a major obstruction like a tree root in one of your main lines. You think that your pipes are strong, but they are nothing compared to the strength of a growing tree. Tree roots can grow through so slowly that you don’t notice the problem at first until it gets really bad. In this case of a tree root obstruction, we may have to reroute the major pipes so they run through your yard on a new path. Doing this is a preventative measure to ensure you don’t face the same problem again in the future.
