Your water lines supply your faucets, appliances, and other fixtures. When they aren’t working properly, it can be a serious problem. Water stains, leaks, drips, and similar issues are all signs that you need to have a water line repair handled quickly.
Lagana Plumbing & Heating’s team of experienced plumbing professionals can get to the bottom of your water line repair quickly. Our fast response time means that we’ll have your home back in order fast so that you can get back to life as usual.
There are several issues that can impact your water lines. An exterior excavation can accidentally break the line. Cold weather can cause water to freeze and expand, breaking the line. A hard physical blow can break or bend your pipe, causing leaks.
Beyond these factors, age can also impact your pipe’s ability to hold up. Metal pipes can corrode, creating pinhole leaks, while plastic pipes can become brittle and shatter under water hammer. In these cases, we can fix the immediate problem, but you’ll want to consider complete water line replacement if this is the case.
The very first step you’ll need to take is to turn off the water source that feeds that water line. In many cases, this is the main shutoff valve for your home or business. You’ll turn it clockwise to turn it off, either a quarter turn if it’s a ball valve and has a rounded provide, or continuously until it stops if it’s a gate valve.
Next, you’ll want to get help to take care of the source of the problem. The sooner you call for help, the faster you’ll get a response and can get back to life without disruptions. That’s part of the reason why Lagana Plumbing & Heating has a hotline staffed with plumbing professionals who can respond quickly to your emergency.
