Do you think I should get a tankless water heater?
Oh no, a pipe has burst! What should I do?
First, think about the safety of everyone in the home.
- Get the water turned off by using the main valve. This is going to stop further water damage and you’ll feel a lot better. Now you can see what you’re dealing with.
- Inspect the impacted pipe and surrounding area as best you can. If it’s on an upper level, see where the water is moving to.
- Anywhere the water is, or is going to be, get the electricity turned completely off as well. If you’re uncertain, just be safe and shut everything down temporarily.
- Take some photos of the damage for insurance claims and such.
- Call Robinson Air so we can get a plumber out there to get you all fixed up!
I think there are leaks in my home; how can I check?
Call Robinson. Let one of our trained professionals come in and take a look. Leaks are one of the main culprits behind higher water bills and hundreds upon hundreds of wasted gallons of water. Leaky toilets. Leaky faucets. Leaky pipes. Leaky tanks. We can help.
What are some signs I need to call Robinson Air for plumbing repairs?
Well, other than emergencies like bursting pipes and major clogs, the big sign is higher water bills. There may be some leaks you’re unaware of or leaks beyond what you may be initially calling about. Another big one we see is when your water pressure drops out of nowhere. If it’s not something going on in the area, there could be a variety of issues in your home. Have an unreliable water heater, or you’re seeing water stains (damp areas) on the ceiling and walls? Call Robinson Air!
Less common signs could be uneven water levels, cracks showing up in your plumbing system, or you’ve recently been trying to DIY something and it’s not helping. Speaking of which…
Should I just try and DIY this plumbing issue myself?
No. Unless you have the proper tools, materials, skills, and experience, serious plumbing work is NOT something you should attempt to fix or mess with yourself. Sometimes small things are actually signs of much bigger problems. And sometimes, small mistakes in fixing small problems can cause much bigger headaches. It’s best to let professionals handle such a serious system in your home.
