5 Plumbing Problems to Catch Early This Spring

As San Francisco warms up, it's the ideal season to give your plumbing a check-up. Winter weather can put serious stress on pipes, valves, and drains. A simple spring check-in can uncover small issues before they become major expenses.


1. Leaky Hose Bibs or Outdoor Faucets

Cold temps can crack outdoor plumbing. We’ll inspect for leaks and recommend simple fixes before water damage happens.

2. Water Heater Wear & Tear

Water heaters work hard through winter. A spring check ensures it’s still running efficiently — or flags when it’s time for a replacement.

3. Underground Pipe Shifting

Heavy rains and soil movement can shift old pipes. Our check-in spots early warning signs like pressure changes and pooling.

4. Fixture Functionality

Dripping faucets, slow drains, or toilets that won’t stop running? Small fixes now save water — and headaches — later.

5. Pressure Issues

Unbalanced pressure can signal deeper problems. We test it quickly and flag concerns before they become emergencies.
