When it comes to any sort of plumbing problem in your property, you want to make sure to take care of it at the earliest opportunity. The sooner you notice an issue, the quicker you can fix it. This approach will make it a lot more convenient and less problematic for your wallet.

The trouble is we often do not even realize we have a big problem until a lot of damage has happened. Some of the most common plumbing issues that may seem small but are causing a lot of headaches for property owners are:

Leaky Sinks from Bathtubs to Shower Heads

Running Toilets

Slow Draining or Clogged Sink

Clean The Aerators

Leaky Water Pipes

Replace Galvanised Water Pipes

Low Water Pressure

Inconsistent Hot Water

Leaky Sinks from Bathtubs to Shower Heads

Constant water dripping might be annoying enough to keep you up at night restless.

  • Running Toilets

    It’s annoying enough when you hear the constant sound of water filling up the tank in your toilet even when no one is using it. Many homeowners don’t fix this issue for months, and even years until they are sick and tired of the constant noise.

  • Slow Draining or Clogged Sink

    This is a very common plumbing problem. It can become serious quickly if you don’t fix it soon enough. A drain is designed to allow water through. When the sink gets blocked,  water has nowhere to go, clogging up the sink, bath or shower drain as a result. You might find yourself dealing with an unhealthy situation when the clogged drainpipe is in the wastewater sewer pipe. However, most blockages happen in your kitchen or bathroom sink.


    This is an inconvenience situation as it slows you down from your current routine. It’s best to call a professional for a drain cleaning at the first sign you notice the problem.

  • Clean The Aerators

    Aerators are small screens put in place at the end of faucets. They break up the flow of water into many small streams, injecting air in between. Aerators substantially reduce the water volume flowing from your faucet.


    Aerators are fairly easy to remove. However, they can be harder to remove on older fixtures. Use a pair of pliers when you find it difficult to remove it. Just be very careful not to damage the delicate mesh as you remove it.


    Once you remove it, you can soak the aerator in a vinegar solution as this will loosen any built-up mineral deposits. Sometimes you may need to use a soft brush for harder to remove debris.

  • Leaky Water Pipes

    The kitchen it’s often the room with the most plumbing problems as it is one of the most commonly areas you use on a daily basis. Keep an eye out for wet spots behind walls as leaky pipes can be a more serious problem than a leaky faucet. This is because leaks go unnoticed for a long time before you discover there is a problem.


    By the time you discover the water leak, it might be too late and the leak has already caused extensive damage.

  • Replace Galvanised Water Pipes

    Anyone living in a home built more than 30 years ago will have some section of their plumbing running galvanised water pipes. These pipes have an iron base coat with zinc and are often likely to get rust and leak as a result. Replacing an old galvanised water pipe system it doesn’t come cheap and it requires a lot of work.

  • Low Water Pressure

    It is frustrating to have low water pressure in your shower and faucets. This is another common plumbing problem homeowners experience. Water leaks in your plumbing lines aggravate this common headache. Sometimes it can happen when your faucets or showerhead aerator screens are blocking the water flow.


    Pressure at each fixture will likely vary but all should have a steady flow. It’s best if you hire a licensed plumber who can find the source of the problem and figure out the best solution when the pressure is low or uneven.

  • Inconsistent Hot Water

    Many factors cause water from your faucet to get too hot or switches between hot and not hot enough including:


    • An insufficient hot water tank size
    • Competing appliances like a toilet or dishwasher
    • Faulty mixing valve
    • Older valves often fail to control water temperature adequately
    • Lack of balancing features that are effective at keeping the temperature from fluctuating

    Inconsistent hot water is irritating and even lead to skin scalds and/or burns. Plumbs Up has professional plumbers with many years of experience who take care of the above plumbing issues.
