Don’t Get Yourself in a Fixture Fix
When Pompano Beach homeowners face a leaky faucet or diminished water flow, they are naturally tempted to roll up their sleeves and tackle the problem themselves. After all, how hard can it be to fix a dripping tap? Harder than it looks, it turns out.
While your can-do spirit is admirable, here’s why entrusting your faucet repairs to Service Minds Benjamin Franklin Plumbing is the smartest move for your home and wallet:
Common Faucet Issues
- O-ring Obstacles: These tiny components play a crucial role in preventing leaks. Misaligning or damaging one during a DIY repair can turn a small drip into an O-cean of Oh-nos.
- Washer Woes: Worn washers are common culprits in faucet leaks. But replacing them isn’t as simple as it seems – using the wrong size or type can exacerbate the problem.
- Cartridge Conundrums: Many modern faucets use cartridge systems. Improper installation or damage during a DIY attempt can result in erratic water flow or complete failure.
- Pressure Predicaments: High water pressure in Pompano Beach can strain faucet components. Addressing symptoms without tackling the root cause can lead to recurring issues.
- Corrosion Complications: Our humid climate accelerates corrosion. Attempting to remove corroded parts without proper tools and expertise can cause extensive damage.
Faucet Failure Flags
Pompano Beach homeowners encounter a variety of problems with their taps and faucets. Call Service Minds Benjamin Franklin whenever it’s time for a faucet flip:
- Leaks: Persistent drips can waste a significant amount of water and increase utility bills. Leaks often indicate worn-out washers, O-rings, or valve seats that need to be replaced.
- Low Pressure: Reduced water flow calls for professional help to determine if it’s caused by mineral buildup in the aerator, pipe corrosion, or issues with the water supply line.
- Odd Noises: Loose parts on the brink of failure often send out a warning signal in the form of a squeak or high-pitched whistle when the tap is turned.
- Discoloration: Visible rust or corrosion on taps can compromise the water quality and the structural integrity of the faucet. Rusty water could come from the faucet or further back in the plumbing system.
- Temperature Variations: Inconsistent water temperature can result from problems with the faucet’s mixing valve. Our plumbers can check it out and assess your water heater, another potential culprit.
- Broken Handles: Handles that are difficult to turn or have broken off completely can make it impossible to use the tap.
- Installation: If your faucets have seen better days or you just want an upgrade, Service Minds Benjamin Franklin will ensure proper installation for easy, leak-free operation.
