Plumbers 911 Experts are Available 24/7 For All Your Fixture Needs
Although we all know the problems that frozen, broken, or leaky pipes can cause, comparatively little is commonly known about the dangers of
malfunctioning plumbing fixtures. And while a squeaky handle or a leaky faucet may seem like nothing more than a mere nuisance, they could actually be doing more damage than you think.
But the damage doesn’t stop there. Even in small amounts, water can be a very powerful substance – especially hard water. The minerals that are dripping into your sink or tub don’t take long to begin building up on the porcelain, fiberglass, or even stainless steel surface. Over time, these minerals can start to eat into the material, causing rust stains and other irreparable damage.
Contact a
licensed Missouri plumber in your area through Plumbers 911 to have your fixtures repaired or new fixtures installed in a timely and professional manner.
Just How Bad is a Leaky Faucet?
So just how much damage can the steady drip-drip of a
leaky faucet do, anyway? First, consider that with every drip, you are wasting as much as a few milliliters of water. This can quickly add up to several fluid ounces, and within the space of only an hour you could have lost a gallon or more. In fact, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), an estimated 10% of American homes have leaks that waste 90 gallons of water each day! Aside from the obvious negative environmental impact of this waste, consider how even a few wasted gallons of water each day can affect your utility bill.
Our Missouri Plumbing Services for Fixture Repair
While this type of damage is largely only cosmetic, some leaks can cause real damage that you won’t be able to ignore forever. Leaks in the seals of your fixture handles often travel down the fixture itself, ending up anywhere but your sink. This water can pool on your countertop, worm its way beneath tiles, and even find its way to your floor. In the best case scenario, you will end up with a few loose tiles and a warped counter. In the worst case, you could be looking at hundreds of dollars of water damage to your drywall, wood flooring, and the framing that holds your cabinetry together.
Still, you may think, a potential worst-case scenario of a few hundred dollars in damage isn’t so bad. This may be true, but why risk spending a few hundred when you can have the problem fixed for a fraction of the cost, time, effort, and disruption to your home?
With Plumbers 911, you can trust us to send a qualified expert to your home at your convenience to repair:
- Leaky kitchen, bathroom, or utility sink faucets
- Dripping shower heads
- Running toilets
- Leaky outdoor spigots
- Valves that won’t close all the way
- Seals in or around your plumbing fixtures
- And, of course, leaky water lines or drainpipes
Should Your Missouri Plumber Repair or Replace Your Fixture?
While fixtures can usually be repaired, there are times when replacement is the better option.
Some of the reasons you may choose to replace your broken or leaky fixture include:
Many homeowners opt for new fixtures simply because they look better. In fact, our contractors can install new fixtures throughout your home if you want, and you can decide what to do with the old working ones.
Although this isn’t always the case, in some instances, it may cost just as much to install a new fixture as it would to repair the old one. Who wouldn’t want something new for the same price?
When your current fixtures were installed in your home in the ’60s, it’s probably time to get new ones. After all, when your faucets are too old, you are likely to spring a new leak as soon as the first one is fixed.
Water Conservation. More efficient plumbing products aren’t limited just to water-saving toilets and washing machines.
Low-flow faucets and shower heads can use half the amount of water as regular fixtures, while maintaining water pressure.
New Construction. If you are building a custom home, there is a Plumbers 911 contractor near you who can work with you from start to finish to plumb your new house, specialized Italian fixtures and all.
Your local expert can help you decide whether you should repair or replace faulty fixtures, choose the new fixtures that you would like in your home, and install them at competitive prices. Let us know how we can best serve you today.
