Plumbing Repairs – Did you Know

A report by consumer affairs found, the most common type of home repair is on plumbing systems, accounting for nearly 28% of all repairs annually, even exceeding air-conditioners, furnaces and appliances. Every day, 14,000 people experience a water damage emergency in the United States. Water damage, including frozen, burst, or otherwise defective plumbing, affects one in 50 homes per year. The Insurance Information Institute (III) reports, losses from water damage, including plumbing leaks, accounts for 22% of all homeowners insurance claims, and is the second leading cause of loss. The average cost per claim for water damage is now more than $11,600

The International Plumbing Code (IPC), or alternatively in some jurisdictions, Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC), coupled with the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) serve as industry standards for professional plumbing repairs and installations. Like all building codes, plumbing codes are updated on a regular three-year cycle, further expanding minimum standards in order to improve the health and safety of plumbing systems. Lessons learned from water and fire damage investigations inform proposed code changes. Additionally, as new plumbing technologies emerge, the model plumbing codes integrate innovative materials and systems, developing practices for safe installation. 

The International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC), serves as the foundation for plumbing maintenance and restorative repairs. The IPC further expands IPMC requirements for plumbing maintenance by requiring both the plumbing system and materials in existing and new construction to be maintained in proper operating condition in accordance with their original design and in a safe and sanitary condition. Further, the International Plumbing Code, specifically section 102.3, assigns responsibility for plumbing maintenance to the owner of the property

Plumbing maintenance and repair is paramount to preventing property damage, but also protecting homeowners from the financial liability and loss. Various homeowners’ insurance products exist. The most comprehensive home coverage is an “all perils” policy covering common disasters and many uncommon causes of loss. However, like all other standard policies, there are exceptions. The most notable insurance exceptions are damage caused from a lack of maintenance, and mold.

Common Plumbing Issues

Plumbing issues can arise at any time, causing inconvenience and disruption to your daily life. Some common plumbing issues include:

  • Leaks: Leaks can occur in pipes, faucets, and toilets, wasting water and causing damage to your home. Even a small leak can lead to significant damage if not addressed promptly.
  • Clogs: Clogs can develop in drains, toilets, and sinks, leading to backups and overflows. These blockages can disrupt your daily routine and may require professional plumbing services to resolve.
  • Water Heater Problems: Water heaters can malfunction, resulting in a lack of hot water or leaks. Regular maintenance and timely water heater repair can prevent these issues from escalating.
  • Sewer Line Issues: Sewer lines can become clogged or damaged, causing backups and overflows. These problems can pose health hazards and require immediate attention from a plumbing repair service.
  • Frozen Pipes: In colder climates, pipes can freeze and burst, leading to significant damage to your home. Preventative measures and prompt pipe repair are crucial to avoid costly repairs.

Addressing these plumbing issues promptly is essential to prevent further damage and costly repairs. If you encounter any of these problems, contacting a professional plumber can help ensure your plumbing system remains in good working order.

Plumbing Emergency

A plumbing emergency can occur at any time, causing significant disruption to your daily life. Some common plumbing emergencies include:

  • Burst Pipes: Burst pipes can cause extensive water damage to your home, requiring immediate attention to prevent further issues.
  • Sewer Backups: Sewer backups can create health hazards and damage your property, necessitating prompt intervention from a professional plumbing service.
  • Leaks: Significant leaks can lead to water damage and mold growth, making it crucial to address them immediately.

Preventing Future Plumbing Issues

Preventing future plumbing issues requires regular maintenance and inspections. Here are some tips to help you keep your plumbing system running smoothly:

  • Regular Inspections: Regularly inspect your pipes and fixtures for signs of wear and tear. Early detection of potential problems can prevent significant damage.
  • Address Leaks Promptly: Check for leaks and address them as soon as they are discovered to avoid water damage and mold growth.
  • Use Drain Screens: Install drain screens to catch hair and other debris that can cause clogs in your kitchen sink and bathroom drains.
  • Run Hot Water: Periodically run hot water through your drains to clear any accumulated debris and prevent clogs.
  • Install a Water Softener: Consider installing a water softener to reduce mineral buildup in your pipes, which can lead to blockages and reduced water flow.
  • Annual Plumbing Inspection: Have your plumbing system inspected annually by a professional plumber to identify and address any potential issues before they become major problems.

By following these tips, you can help prevent future plumbing issues and ensure your plumbing system operates efficiently. Regular maintenance and professional inspections are key to avoiding costly repairs and maintaining a reliable plumbing system.
