Top-Rated Plumbers in Carrollton, GA

If you think you have a leak in your home, there’s often an easy way you can check. Simply go out to your water meter and record the current level. Make sure no one in your home uses any water for a few hours, then simply go back and check the water meter again (we believe it is easiest to do the first check before bedtime at night, and then do the secondary follow-up check early in the morning). If the water meter level has changed, and no one has used any water overnight, then chances are you probably have a leak of some sort.

Carrollton can have some colder winter months, and therefore it definitely makes sense the water that enters your home is much colder than in Summer and Spring. This often causes the hot water in your tank to lose a lot more heat when it mixes with the incoming cold water. Additionally, you may have sediment in your tank that’s hindering your water heater’s performance.

The most common thing our local plumbers discover when it comes to checking out a leaky faucet is corroded O-rings, gaskets, or valve seats. Together, these faucet parts are what hold back the water until the faucet is properly opened, so if one of them is corroded, you’ll often end up with a leaky faucet. Our plumbing contractors recommend that you or a professional inspect all the components of your faucet, including washers, O-rings or seals, and springs if it has them.

The required horsepower for your sump pump is usually determined by the area of drainage connected to the sump, the depth of groundwater, the depth of the basement, and a few other small factors (most houses use a 1/3 hp pump). We recommend consulting with a professional Carrollton plumber or sump pump expert to make sure you get the appropriate size for your home.
