When to call a professional

Not sure if it is time to get help? If any of these sound familiar, it is worth a call.

• Water pressure drops noticeably when you run two fixtures at once — common in Harrah ranch homes where corroded galvanised pipes are narrowing inside the walls after 50+ years.
• You hear a banging or knocking sound when you shut off a faucet quickly (water hammer) — a sign that air chambers are waterlogged or missing, stressing pipe joints that will eventually crack.
• Rust-colored water comes out of the tap for the first few seconds each morning — indicates corroded galvanised pipes that are shedding iron scale and may be months away from pinhole leaks.
• The toilet runs for 20-30 seconds after every flush, or you hear it refilling randomly during the night — the flapper or fill valve is failing and wasting hundreds of gallons per month, spiking your water bill.
• A musty or mildew smell under the kitchen or bathroom sink, even when nothing looks wet — slow drips are soaking into the cabinet floor and growing mould that spreads into the drywall.
• The water heater makes a rumbling, popping or crackling noise when it heats up — sediment from Harrah's hard groundwater has built up on the bottom of the tank, causing hotspots that stress the steel and lead to leaks.
• Water pools around the base of the water heater or you see rust streaks down the side — the tank is corroding through and will fail completely within weeks, flooding your garage or utility room.
• Drains gurgle or bubble when you run water elsewhere in the house — a sign of a partial sewer line blockage (often tree roots in Harrah's older systems) that will back up completely during the next heavy use.
