A leaking tap often results from a worn-out washer. In older homes, the entire tap may be nearing the end of its lifespan. While replacing a washer is straightforward, older taps can be challenging to disassemble without specialized tools. It's advisable to turn off the water supply before attempting any repairs and consider consulting a licensed plumber to avoid potential damage.

Signs of a water leak include: Unusual Wet Patches: Damp areas in your lawn or garden without an obvious cause. Increased Water Bills: A sudden spike in your water bill without increased usage. Dripping Taps or Running Toilets: Visible leaks from fixtures. Ceiling or Wall Stains: Discoloration or mould growth indicating possible leaks.

Common reasons for a lack of hot water include: Depleted Supply: Extended use may temporarily exhaust the hot water. Pilot Light Issues: In gas systems, the pilot light may have gone out due to a draft. System Faults: Malfunctions within the hot water system may require professional attention.

Pipes can burst due to several factors, including: Defective Parts: Manufacturing defects can lead to weaknesses over time. Corrosion: Chemical reactions, especially when pipes contact incompatible materials, can cause deterioration. Physical Damage: Accidental impacts, such as digging in the garden, can damage pipes. Temperature Stress: Pipes expand and contract with temperature changes; over time, this can lead to stress fractures.

If you detect a gas smell: Open Windows: Ventilate the area immediately. Check Appliances: Ensure all gas appliances are turned off. Turn Off Gas Supply: Locate and shut off the gas meter, typically found at the front corner of your property. Contact a Professional: Call a licensed gas fitter or plumber to inspect and rectify the issue promptly.

Older homes may have terracotta pipes, which can: Crack Over Time: Leading to leaks and blockages. Attract Tree Roots: Roots can infiltrate cracks, causing further damage. Be Affected by Soil Movement: Reactive clay soils can cause pipes to shift and break. Regular inspections by a licensed plumber can help identify and address issues with terracotta pipes.

A continuously running toilet can waste significant water and increase bills. To address this: Check the Flapper: Ensure it's sealing properly; replace if worn or damaged. Inspect the Float: Adjust the float arm to ensure the tank fills to the correct level. Examine the Fill Valve: Replace if it's not shutting off as it should.
