When to Call a Professional Plumber in Los Angeles

When to Call a Professional Plumber in Los Angeles

By Asher B In blog No comments

It’s that ‘drip, drip, drip’ sound during the night while you’re trying to sleep, or the quirky toilet that keeps flushing by itself. You particularly love when that happens as you’re entertaining guests for dinner. These little plumbing quirks may have seemed livable at first, but after the first few weeks, these oddities are now driving you crazy. It’s time to call a plumber, and if you live in the Los Angeles area, there’s only one plumber to call: Boss Plumbing.  We are the City of Angels’ most dependable plumber and have been family-owned since 1989.

1. Leaky Faucets

You’ve seen it in movies and television shows: the leaky faucets that drive the insomniac to the edge of insanity as he or she tries to fall asleep. Sure, it’s funny. But a leaky faucet represents a tremendous amount of wasted water, not to mention a lot of money. Often a dripping faucet will only need a relatively simple repair, such as replacing the silicone or rubber washers that stop the water flow from your pipes through the tap. Over time, these washers wear down due to age-related deterioration. However, this is not a task that is so straightforward. Faucets come in an unprecedented range of types and styles. That’s why we recommend you call a plumber.

2. Running Toilets

If your toilet takes a while to refill after you’ve flushed or does it randomly (conveniently when people are over), then it needs to be checked by a licensed plumber. As you know, toilets contain various parts that come together in flushing and keeping water where it belongs in the tank and bowl. Poorly fitting flapper valves, imbalanced floats, or snapped chains are a few examples of the more common toilet problems that can be fixed by you, the homeowner.

However, if you’ve tried all the tricks in your bag and your toilet still isn’t operating correctly, then it’s time to call a plumber. You may very well have a more complicated issue on your hands. Or you’ve fixed the toilet’s excessive running, but your water bill is still very high. That’s where we can help! Call Boss Plumbing today.

3. Low Water Pressure

Low pressure can signify a variety of problems. It may mean that a particular faucet or showerhead is blocked with a mineral build-up of sediment. This is something that homeowners can fix themselves without the need for plumbers. However, there are many more complicated reasons for low water pressure, from a water main break nearby (not necessarily on your property) to a burst pipe. If your attempt to remove sediment or mineral build-up has not changed the lack of water pressure build-up, then it’s time to call a plumber. At Boss Plumbing, we have the expertise and experience to ensure that we can find the source of your low-pressure and fix it.

4. Call a Plumber, Call Boss Plumbing

There are many reasons to call a plumber, from leaky faucets to running toilets and low water pressure. What starts as a small leak, clog, and low pressure can balloon if it’s not tended to by a licensed plumber when needed. That’s why when it’s time to call a plumber, do not hesitate! Boss Plumbing is the premier, family-owned and operated plumbing company in Los Angeles.

We look forward to doing business with you.
