Some research has shown that some homeowners will call a plumber once every three years! For some people, this may seem a lot, but to other homeowners they might need a visit from a plumber every year.

At Trojan Plumbing we see a variety of plumbing problems, but we’re often asked, “is this a common problem?” Though we’ve seen a wide variety of plumbing issues from big to small, we have put a list together of what our technicians are most commonly called out for.

  1. Dripping Faucets
    We’ve all had a dripping tap in our home and tend to ignore it for a while, but a dripping tap not only wastes water, it wastes money on your water bill.
  2. Leaky Pipes
    Our technicians are often called out to fix leaking pipes. Most pipes will begin to leak near the joints, so keep an eye out for wet spots on the ground or ceiling. Water damage to your home can be very costly, so leaky pipes are a necessity to fix right away by a professional plumber
  3. Running Toilets
    Wondering what the constant sound of water is filling up the tank? That is a running toilet. Most people don’t realise that a running toilet wastes so much water and your hard-earned money. This is mostly due to an internal leak and will need to be fixed by a professional plumber.
  4. Low Water Pressure
    A lot of homes will experience low water pressure, but you may be asking why? It could be time for a new showerhead or you could have a hidden leak in your home. However, those are just a few of the many reasons for low water pressure and you would need to contact a professional plumber to see what the issue is.
  5. Slow or Clogged Drains
    One of the most annoying water-related issues can be a slow or clogged drain. Which leaves sinks or basins filled with water that won’t drain. One of the reasons why a drain will clog is that things like, oil, certain food particles etc have entered the drain causing a blockage. As soon as you notice this happens, it is advised to call in a professional plumber to sort out the blockage.
