How Can I Tell if I Need Plumbing Repair?

There are a number of indicators you can look out for that may signal that your plumbing is in need of a professional service. For example, if you notice water backing up in your toilet or shower, it’s best to call in a plumber. Additionally, if your toilet is continually overflowing or having trouble flushing then you most likely need a repair. Keep an eye out for those and any additional signs that could indicate your home’s plumbing is struggling and is in need of repair.

Signs of Plumbing Problems:

  • Your water pressure keeps fluctuating
  • Your home has no hot water
  • Your water temperature is inconsistent
  • Your lawn has developed wet patches
  • Your toilet and drains are making gurgling noises
  • Your home has no water at all
  • Your water bills have skyrocketed
  • Your drains are emitting a sewage odor
  • Your ceiling has developed water stains
  • Your pipes have started to rattle or shake

Be sure to contact the Wausau plumbing repair pros at Mr. Rooter Plumbing if you do notice any signs that your plumbing is malfunctioning. Delaying a necessary repair can lead to more damage to your plumbing system, and possibly your home, as well as more costly problems down the line.

  • Some plumbing problems can be fixed with a few tools from the hardware store and a DIY tutorial online. Mr. Rooter Plumbing has several helpful videos on different plumbing problems. For example, fixing a running toilet isn’t too tricky if you only need to replace a defective item in the toilet tank. However, there are a few situations where having an experienced, licensed plumber is necessary.

    If the plumbing issue is causing more damage to the rest of your home, it’s better to let a plumber handle the repair. For example, a leaking water heater will need to be replaced if it’s old and not repairable. Leaking water heaters can cause water damage to your property, which is costly to repair. A leaking water heater will also need to be turned off until repaired, so getting it up and running as fast as possible means you have running hot water again.
