Plumbing Repair

Whether you’re struggling with a minor issue or need an emergency repair, the team at Acknowledge Plumbing is here to help you avoid trouble. Our lasting solutions will help ensure your plumbing system is the least of your worries.

Common Plumbing Problems and Their Solutions

Every household faces plumbing problems at some point. Here are some of the most frequent issues and practical solutions to keep your system working:

Dripping Faucets: This common issue wastes water and can also increase your water bill. In most cases, it’s caused by a worn-out washer or O-ring, which can be replaced easily by a skilled plumber.
Clogged Drains: From the kitchen sink to the bathroom shower, clogs are a nuisance. While a plunger can sometimes solve the problem, tougher clogs might require professional drain cleaning to remove stubborn blockages without damaging the pipes.
Leaky Pipes: Often signaled by water stains on ceilings or walls, leaky pipes require immediate attention. Temporary fixes like pipe clamps or tape can reduce damage, but for a permanent solution, replacing the affected section is necessary.
Running Toilets: A toilet that won’t stop running can waste a lot of water. This is frequently caused by a faulty flapper or an improper float height. Replacing these components is usually a straightforward fix that can save water and money.

What To Do When You Need an Emergency Plumbing Repair

Plumbing emergencies like burst pipes, major leaks, or a sewage backup require immediate action to prevent extensive damage to your home or business. Here’s what you should do in these urgent situations:

Shut Off the Water: Know where your main water shut-off valve is located at and turn it off to minimize flooding.
Call a Professional: Some situations are too critical for a DIY approach. Emergency plumbing services are equipped to handle major issues promptly.
Minimize Damage: While waiting for the plumber in Orangevale, try to control the spread of water with towels or buckets. If safe, turn off electrical power to areas affected by water.
Document the Damage: For insurance purposes, you should take photos of the damage caused by the plumbing emergency.

The Importance of Regular Plumbing Inspections

Regular plumbing inspections might not seem necessary, but they are vital in preventing emergencies and extending the lifespan of your plumbing system. During an inspection, a professional plumber can identify potential problems like small leaks, rusting pipes, or worn-out components that might not yet be causing issues but could lead to major problems if left unchecked. Inspections can also improve your system’s efficiency, potentially lowering your water bills. Investing in routine checks helps you avoid the inconvenience and costs associated with major repairs.

The Long-Term Costs of Neglecting Plumbing Repairs

Ignoring minor plumbing issues can lead to considerable long-term costs:

Reviews

Our kitchen drain was draining directly under the house creating a small lake of soap and mud. Several plumbers were called but all were a week or more out. We reached out to a lesser known company, Acknowledge Plumbing, and within a coupe of hours, we had a plumber on site and the problem resolved. It turns out some rodent(s) chewed through the coupling causing the discharge under the house. We are grateful to Acknowledge for their quick response, professional service, and friendly interaction.We are saving their number for any future plumbing problems that may arise. We were very satisfied with this company and highly recommend them to anyone with plumbing issues.

Felix came out to work on my reverse osmosis system. It turned out I need new system but he was thorough, explained everything in detail, and was reasonably priced. I've already teed him up for my next plumbing project. I highly recommend Felix and the Acknowledge Plumbing team.

Called Acknowledge Plumbing to fix an issue with my water pressure & piping. Steve came out the next day to provide a free estimate. He was very knowledgeable and provided some cost saving options to try before needing to do major work. Greatly appreciate the responsiveness & ability to act and respond in the best interest of the customer from this company. Definitely will give them a call for future plumbing needs.

We had an urgent need for help with our water heater on a holiday weekend (is was leaking and needed to be replaced). We were not optimistic that we would get anyone to answer a call, let alone make availability for a service call. Not only did Acknowledge Plumbing pick up the phone, but Savina was stellar in finding us a tech for the same day, and provided updates on her progress in near real time - this is highly unusual these days. Felix connected with us, discussed options for a new unit, procured it and arrived the same day. He was a pleasure to have so the work and got the whole project turned around that afternoon. They are at the top of our virtual Rolodex.

Water Damage: Unaddressed leaks can cause structural damage to your home, including rotting, mold, and mildew.
Increased Utility Bills: Even small leaks can waste substantial amounts of water, leading to higher water bills.
Expensive Repairs: Minor issues can develop into major problems that are much more expensive to fix. For example, a small leak in a pipe can eventually lead to a burst pipe that requires extensive and costly repairs.
