A dripping faucet wastes water and increases your utility bill. Usually, replacing a worn-out washer or O-ring can stop the leak.

Hair, soap scum, or food debris often cause clogs. Try a plunger or a drain snake to remove the obstruction. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage your pipes.

If your toilet keeps running, the culprit may be a faulty flapper or fill valve. Replacing these inexpensive parts usually solves the issue.

Mineral deposits in faucet aerators can reduce water pressure. Unscrew the aerator, clean it with vinegar, and reinstall it.

Like faucets, showerheads may leak due to worn-out seals. Tightly wrap the threads with plumber's tape before reinstalling the showerhead.

Banging or rattling pipes often result from loose fasteners or high water pressure. Secure the pipes or install a pressure-reducing valve to eliminate noise.

Never use your hands to clear a jam. Instead, turn off the power, use a wrench to rotate the blades manually, and remove any blockages.

If your water heater isn’t producing hot water, check the thermostat or reset the breaker. For persistent problems, call a professional.

Temporarily stop leaks with pipe tape or a repair clamp until a plumber can provide a permanent solution.

Sewer smells often come from a dried-out P-trap or a cracked pipe. Pour water into the drain to refill the trap, or consult a plumber for further inspection.
