What causes clogged pipes and drains in East Irvine, California?

Old Pipes

Old Pipes Lead to Leaks - Elder & Young Plumbing Company

Pipes last a long time, but they won’t last forever. The Original pipes are made from materials that are subject to corrosion such as iron and over time the pipe weakens and begins breaking down until eventually it breaks entirely due to corrosion or other damage related issues – this is when you start noticing leaks in your property which can potentially cause major problems for homes in East Irvineif left unchecked for too long! If you have older pipes like these at home then we would recommend upgrading them with newer pipes before any serious damage occurs.

Tree Root Intrusion

Tree Root Intrusion lead to leaks - Elder & Young Plumbing

Rest assured that with the help of an expert plumber from Elder & Young, we’ll use our leak detection equipment to find and fix your plumbing problems quickly.

Foundation Shifting and Settling

Foundation Shifting Causes Slab Leakse

One of the most important factors that go into determining someone’s home is their piping system, and it needs to be checked regularly for any potential problems. One reason why pipes in your house are more fragile than you might think is because they have to move with what’s happening around them- so if there has been an earthquake or natural disaster nearby then this will affect every aspect including water pressure changes which can cause plumbing issues like color changes.

Pipe Corrosion and Aging Pipes

Pipe Corrosion leads to leaks - Elder & Young Plumbing Company

Corrosion can cause both leaks and clogs. It’s important to take care of any corrosion on your pipes, as it may indicate that you need to have them looked at by a professional plumber right away! If the problem appears more severe than it is, consider replacing high risk factors- like ones made from cast iron – because these will only get worse over time and require significant repairs later if left unattended.

What are the frequent symptoms of clogged pipe or drain in East Irvine, California?

Water in the Street

It is important to know the signs of a leaking main water line. When there’s nowhere for the overflow from your pipe to go, it will often seep up right in front of your home at the street! If you notice bubbling water on the street then they should contact a professional plumber immediately before any more damage can be done.

Wet Spots on Floor Around Sinks, Toilets and Tubs

If you notice a wet spot on the floor around a sink, toilet or tub, it may be nothing, or, it may be due to a water leak. Homeowners should regularly inspect the areas around sinks, toilets and tubs and look for wet spots or discoloration. If you notice don’t notice anything unusual, and the moisture persists, you could have a cracked toilet, or it could be something else. If nothing stands out, call a professional plumber for help. We’ll find the source of the water and solve the plumbing problem.

Puddles Inside or Outside Your Home

If you have water accumulating or puddling inside or outside your home, whether it be in a walkway, or on a floor, it could be an indicator of a water leak in the pipes. While some problems are easier to diagnose and detect, the leaks inside walls and underground are more challenging and special leak detection equipment may be necessary. If you suspect a leak that you can’t see, call us to schedule a service call immediately.

Wet Spots Next to Walls

Water flows downhill. If you have a wet spot next to a wall that is next to a bathroom, it may be a sign of a leak in the bathroom or within the wall between the two rooms. However, if there is no bathroom next to a wet spot next to a wall, it’s likely that the water the result of a water leak that is coming from above and running down the wall and pooling at the floor. In these situations, it’s important to contact a plumber immediately to mitigate the damages that are being done. These situations if not taken care of early can lead to mold and other damage. A professional plumber will use the latest electronic leak detection equipment to detect the location of the leak so that it can be fixed quickly without tearing down walls or the ceiling to find it and fix it.

Sudden Cracks in the Foundation, Low Spots in Pavement and Potholes

When water seeps into the foundation of your house, that’s when things get really serious! Not only will we have to worry about cracks in our walls and ceilings but also structural components like the beams supporting floors above us. This is where leaking water can become dangerous: not just surface level damage but now actual structural problems as well! You never want an issue this big sitting around without being addressed. If you notice cracks in the foundation, contact a plumber right away so that they can inspect the property for leaks using the latest leak detection equipment.
