Your plumbing system is going to have a problem from time to time, and it is important to call a plumber to help you with the problem. When you have a problem with your plumbing system, it can mean not having water to use for taking a shower or flushing the toilet. Below are some signs that you need to call plumber Bellevue to come and fix the plumbing problem.

Pipe Knocking

When you hear knocking in your pipes when the sink is running, during a shower, or when filling your bathtub, it is a sign. There are many causes of this sound, including “water hammer”, which is the pressurization of the pipes. This problem needs to be addressed as soon as possible before it leads to a pike leak.

Low Water Pressure

When you turn your shower or tap, it should come out with steady pressure. If you start to notice low pressure when you open the tap or shower, it is a sign of a problem. It can even be a slow drip or no water at all. Check whether the faucet or shower is clogged. Low pressure can be the result of a clogged pipe, burst pipe, or a damaged water heater. Call a plumber so he/she can determine and fix the problem.

Continual Dripping

If your shower or sink keeps dripping, then it could be that the water pressure is too high. Another possible problem is the valve for turning the water on and off is broken. This problem should be addressed fast because it can end up damaging your plumbing.

Slow Drainage

When the water is draining slowly, the most common fix is using a pipe snake, boiling water, or commercially available cleaners. If you try that and it doesn’t work, then the problem could be with your plumbing. Maybe it is pooled water in the main drain that has not drained or there is a broken pipe. You should call a plumber to identify and fix the problem because still water poses a health risk. If there are broken pipes, it can accumulate molds behind your walls.

Lack Of Hot Water

There is a maximum capacity when it comes to hot water tanks. If you have used too much water in a short time, you have to wait for the heater to heat more water. If you turn on hot water but it is cold, then there is a problem. It could be a problem with the water heater or a leak. If you notice this problem, call a plumber Bellevue.
