Why You May Need a Plumbing Repair

When it comes to plumbing issues, it may be hard to determine when you need a plumbing repair. Some signs you should have your plumbing repaired include:

• Your toilet is running, clogged or leaking.
• Your pipes are leaking or have burst.
• You have slow or clogged drains.
• Your home’s water pressure is too low.
• You are unable to receive hot water.

Another indication you need to call a plumber is if you smell sewage odors in your home. When your plumbing systems are not working as they should, it can be inconvenient and pose a threat to your home and your health. If the plumbing issue you are experiencing prevents your home from operating properly or could damage your home, it is considered a plumbing emergency.

When to Get Your Plumbing Systems Replaced

Your home’s plumbing system is integral to keeping your home operational and safe from water damage. However, as your plumbing wears down and ages, it can cost you hundreds or thousands in repair costs. Depending on the type of material your plumbing is made out of, you should replace your plumbing typically around every 20-50 years. Polyvinyl chloride, cast iron, copper and brass are the most durable and longest lasting materials, whereas galvanized steel lasts the shortest amount of time.

Regardless of the type material your plumbing systems are made out of, it is important to have your plumbing regularly inspected to know when it is time to repair your plumbing versus when it is time to replace it. To learn more about our plumbing services, contact us today!

Wonderfully personable young man replaced my ancient toilet with a low flow wonder. Fast, clean, and efficient work on his part. And not a bad price either!

Hurlburt has tremendous service. I had an issue with water heater and as a man with Google and a screwdriver thought I could fix it. Ended up calling the pros. Promptly had a service scheduled one day later. They found a simple problem of a clogged pressure switch line. They were super prompt, courteous and professional.

We had a new furnace/AC/water heater installed by Hurlburt today, along with a plumbing repair. We were amazed at their efficiency. Although, each crew member introduced themselves, we failed to write down their names so we could thank them individually for a job well done. All 4 were very personable, professional, and polite.Adam, the sales rep that gave us the estimate, was also very personable, straight forward, and polite. No high pressure. We will recommend Hurlburt to anyone that asks.Mike and Deb Richardson
