Plumbing DIY

You might think you have no idea how to repair anything around the house. The most minor problems happen in your plumbing system and you are the first one to take out the phonebook looking for a repairman without even examining the issue first. We are not here to tackle this problem with you, but we are to offer you some tips and tricks you can consider and apply easily if the matter is not that serious. So, keep on reading and we will tell you when it is time to reconsider and take out your phone out again to call your local plumbing service in Toronto. Let’s get started.

Low water pressure

Probably one of the most common problems that maybe you have encountered often around the house too, is the problem with low water pressure. You step into the shower aiming to relax and enjoy the warmth, while unexpectedly the water decides to lose its once strong pressure. First, you need to consider clearing the clogs regularly and over time, otherwise similar to the inside of a kettle that gets rusty over time leading to slower water pressure, the pipes will act the same way. You must be on watch for leakage and should you encounter leaks, it is best to have a professional take over the matter because you do not want to damage the pipes. A temporary solution that works for minor issues and cannot solve the problems with leaking, is to install a water pressure booster pump. Of course, this is only suggested for those who are certain that this problem is not fundamental and need just a little bit of boost in the pressure.

Problems with garbage disposal

This is one of the most disturbing problems around the house. The water does not go down the drain and you are faced with water that contains dirt and pieces of food that just cannot be drained. You have probably seen this a lot. There is a small dirty pool that seems unfixable. However, we are here to tell you that it is not and you do not necessarily need a plumber for this issue. So, let’s get into it. First, be sure to use the plunger. Then, after you fill the sink with water do this again and press down slowly. After you do this, pull the plunger out with a forceful motion. Do this a few times and please remember to get rid of garbage and debris followed by a minute of running water inside the drain to clear the area. If this does not help, be sure to call your plumber.
