Kitchen & Lavatory Faucets

Pro Tip: If your kitchen or lavatory faucet has low water pressure, try removing and cleaning the aerator. Often clogged screens reduce water flow.

When your faucets drip after turning them off, are loose, or have low water pressure, contact the professional plumbers at City Plumbing &  Rooter.

A dripping faucet can waste more than 2,000 gallons of water per year.  Often, with homes that have fluctuating water pressure and/or hard water, the seals inside of most faucets become worn leading to slow leaks. Our team works to make repairs on fixtures in good condition whenever possible.

If the faucet cannot be repaired, it is time to replace it with a new high quality faucet. There are many manufacturers making exceptional fixtures with high quality materials. We offer a wide range of faucets to fit kitchen and lavatory design needs and your budget.

We also recommend checking the water pressure in the home, if it is too high, a water pressure reducing valve can help and will reduce leaking fixtures in the future.  

Showerheads

Pro Tip: If your shower head has hard water buildup and clogged spray holes, soak it in distilled white vinegar and hot water.

Quality shower heads will last homeowners for many years. However, other elements may lead to leaks and failures. High water pressure can cause leaks in the pipes leading to the showerheads requiring reinstalling with new plumbers tape, and can also cause leaks inside of the shower heads. If you notice dripping in the shower head or pipes, call City Plumbing & Rooter for an expert diagnosis and repair or replacement estimate.

Many homeowners want to upgrade their fixtures to a high efficiency shower head to help save water costs, but don’t want to sacrifice water pressure. Quality manufacturers are making great products with a high water savings while maintaining a luxury shower experience.

Replacing a showerhead is also a way to transform an ordinary shower with rainwater functions, music directly from the shower, LED light, and aromatherapy. For a small investment, homeowners can enjoy a spa like shower in their own home. City Plumbing & Rooter will show homeowners how to achieve luxury for an affordable cost.

Toilets

Pro Tip: Address running toilets immediately. A running toilet can waste close to 6,000 gallons of water per month.

Toilet repairs never happen at a convenient time and you need an expert to respond quickly. We are available 24/7 and deliver the best in quality customer service.  

Toilets can leak inside of the tank from a worn flapper or flush valve, from the toilet into the tank, and at the base. While running toilets are easy to identify by the sound, slow leaks from the toilet tank into the bowl can cost just as much water and go on for months before being noticeable. A dye tablet test can help identify where the toilet leak is coming form. Place it in the toilet tank and watch for color leaking into the bowl.

We can replace flappers and flush valves in no time to restore your services. If the leak is at the base, we can determine if it is a main sewer line problem.

Over time, toilets can fail requiring replacement. When internal parts are unavailable or worn beyond repair, replacing the toilet is the best option.

Small hairline cracks can also occur from tightening bolts too much or age and cannot be repaired. A toilet can also lose flush power due to calcium deposits inside of the toilet drain. Sometimes, an acid treatment can restore flow, but most often a brand new toilet will solve the problem permanently. Our team can provide a new toilet to fit your budget and match the look of your bathroom.

Garbage Disposals

Pro Tip: Use the garbage disposal sparingly. It is only for pushing small particles through the line.

Some common disposal problems may include:

• Humming sound when it is turned on, but nothing happens

• It turns on, but the blades do not turn

• It is leaking

• It drains slowly

If the disposal hums and nothing happens, the motor could be blown meaning it would have to be replaced. If it is humming, but the blades won’t turn, it could be jammed inside of the disposal or need a reset.

Disposal leaks often mean a seal is broken somewhere in the kitchen drain, and will typically require replacement. If the disposal is draining slow, a routine snaking will usually solve the problem.

City Plumbing & Rooter can reset or replace your disposal quickly restoring service to your kitchen sink. There are many choices in garbage disposals. Our team of experts will walk you through all options to fit your disposal needs and budget. We will also help to ensure the disposal remains in good working condition with tips to keep it running and clog free.
