Signs You May Need A Main Water Line Repair Specialist
Some of the most common signs of a water leak are not actually active signs of water. Hard water build up around faucets, water shut off valves, or water line connections, are indications there may be a slow leak, or a past leak.
One of the leading causes of water line system leaks is high water pressure. If the home does not have a pressure reducing valve, or water pressure regulator, it could lead to leaks. City water service supplies water, but often it is much higher than the recommended pressure. Excessive water pressure can weaken seals in faucets and toilets, as well as cause friction in underground water lines leading to burst pipes and flood damage. This could lead to the need for a water line replacement.
In San Diego, slab leaks are very common, especially in older homes. Age and water pressure can cause underground pipes to develop pinhole leaks that can go unnoticed until it is a bigger issue.
Our team is able to electronically locate the leak and provide recommendations for direct water service repair or new water line replacement. Often, a reroute of the leaking line can also solve the problem.
Another sure sign of a leak in the home’s plumbing is discoloration on ceilings from upper to lower pipe leaks. This can happen from an upstairs shower, and homeowners may never know. The pipes inside of the walls can leak for long periods, and only when it becomes larger will signs of water appear. Most times, a main water line repair can be made to fix the leak. However, our team will ensure the cause of leaking is addressed to prevent future leaks.
Our team recommends an annual plumbing inspection that will check the water pressure and all visible plumbing systems to ensure homeowners are leak free. While there is little maintenance that can be performed to prevent water leaks, routine inspection can help to identify potential issues before they become larger problems.
If you are experiencing active leaks or suspect a leak, call our expert team for the highest quality water line installation, repair and diagnosis.

When Should I Search For A Plumber Near Me?
John Stevenson Plumbing, Heating & Air recommends scheduling annual plumbing evaluations. Your home is an investment, and it is better to prevent problems before they occur.

Some Common Signs That You Need Plumbing Services
Some residential plumbing issues are easy to spot: active water drips, foul odors, strange sounds from the pipes all indicate something is happening in the system. But, there are more subtle signs that something is going on that requires a specialist. A common plumbing repair in San Diego is slab leaks. Leaks that happen under the foundation of the home. Signs include high water bills, damp floors, warm spots, and sounds of water running when no services are in use.
Common Plumbing Problems
Plumbing can be much more complex than we think. As long as we get hot water from our taps, and everything is working fine, we often don’t think about our plumbing. But, there is a lot going on throughout the home, and it is all connected. Many times, a problem in the toilet is related to the water pressure coming into the home. Some of the most common issues are leaks. Leaks occur when the pipes are older, or plumbing seals are weakened from age and pressure.
Loose faucets, older water heaters, and poorly maintained systems will also lead to problems. If left alone, all of these can lead to burst pipes and major floods in worst case scenarios.
