How to solve 10 Common Plumbing Problems
Plumbing issues are a part of every homeowner's experience, but not every problem needs a costly professional fix. From clogged drains to running toilets, many common plumbing problems can be handled with a few tools and basic know-how
Dripping Faucets
A worn-out washer or cartridge is usually the culprit. Turn off the water supply, disassemble the faucet, and replace the damaged part
Clogged Drains
Hair, grease, and debris cause most clogs. Use a plunger, drain snake, or natural solution like baking soda and vinegar to clear the blockage
Running Toilet
This is often caused by a faulty flapper. Open the tank, check the flapper seal, and replace it if it’s worn or warped
Low Water Pressure
Check for mineral buildup in faucet aerators or showerheads. Soak them in vinegar or replace them entirely if necessary
Leaky Pipes
Temporary fixes include epoxy putty or pipe clamps, but a permanent solution usually involves replacing the damaged section

Water Heater Issues
If there’s no hot water, check the thermostat or pilot light. Sediment buildup may also require flushing the tank
Jammed Garbage Disposal
Use the reset button underneath the unit. If that fails, insert an Allen wrench into the bottom socket and rotate to dislodge the jam
Slow Draining Tub
Hair traps and soap residue are common culprits. Remove the stopper and use a drain stick or snake to pull out the debris
Toilet Won’t Flush Properly
Check the tank water level, flapper, and handle chain. Adjust or replace any faulty components.
Sewer Odors
Dry traps or cracked seals can release odors. Pour water into unused drains and inspect wax seals around toilets for leaks
