Heading out of town for fall break? Take a few minutes to check your plumbing before you leave. 🧳🍂

Before locking the door:
🔹 Check beneath sinks for moisture
🔹 Make sure toilets are not continuously running
🔹 Inspect washing-machine supply hoses
🔹 Confirm that outdoor faucets are completely off
🔹 Know where your main water shutoff valve is located
🔹 Ask someone you trust to check the house during longer trips

A small leak can cause significant damage when no one is home to notice it.

If you find moisture, corrosion, a damaged hose, or a shutoff valve that will not operate properly, have it addressed before your trip.

Is your water suddenly yellow, brown, orange, or cloudy? Don’t assume it will clear up on its own. 🚰

Discolored water may be connected to:
🔹 Corrosion inside older pipes
🔹 Sediment inside the water heater
🔹 Iron or mineral buildup
🔹 Work being performed on the municipal water system
🔹 Sediment entering a private well system
🔹 A deteriorating water service line

The source matters. Discoloration appearing only in the hot water may point toward the water heater, while both hot and cold water being affected could indicate a larger supply or piping issue.

Avoid washing light-colored clothing or using visibly discolored water for cooking until you understand what is causing it.

Option One Plumbing can inspect the system and help determine where the discoloration is coming from.

Did your water bill suddenly increase even though your household habits haven’t changed? Your plumbing may be trying to tell you something.

An unexplained increase can be caused by:
🔹 A running toilet
🔹 A dripping faucet or shower valve
🔹 A leaking water heater
🔹 An underground water-line leak
🔹 A hidden leak beneath the home or inside a wall
🔹 An irrigation-system problem

Some leaks release water continuously without creating an obvious puddle inside the home.

To perform a quick check, turn off every water-using fixture and appliance, then look at your water meter. If the meter continues moving, water may still be flowing somewhere in the system.

Option One Plumbing can help locate the source before a hidden leak causes a much larger bill—or expensive property damage.

If a pipe suddenly bursts, knowing where your main water shutoff is could prevent thousands of dollars in damage. 💦

Every homeowner should know:
🔹 Where the main shutoff valve is located
🔹 Which direction closes the valve
🔹 Whether the valve can still move properly
🔹 Where the street-side meter and shutoff are located
🔹 Who to call after the water is stopped

Main shutoff valves are commonly found near the water meter, inside a garage, in a crawlspace, basement, utility room, or where the main water line enters the home.

Don’t wait for water to start spreading across the floor before trying to find it. If the valve is stuck, corroded, leaking, or difficult to operate, don’t force it, Option One Plumbing can inspect and replace it.

If the same drain keeps clogging, the blockage may be deeper than you think. ⚠️

A recurring clog can point to:
🔹 Buildup farther inside the drain line
🔹 Grease, wipes, hair, or other trapped debris
🔹 Damaged or poorly sloped piping
🔹 Tree-root intrusion
🔹 A belly or break in the sewer line

Chemical drain cleaners may temporarily move the blockage, but they don’t correct damaged piping—and repeated use can be hard on certain plumbing materials.

If the clog keeps coming back, it’s time to find out why. Option One Plumbing can clear the line, inspect it with a camera when needed, and recommend the right long-term solution.

Does your toilet keep running after you flush? It may sound like a small annoyance, but it can quietly waste water around the clock. 🚽💧

Common causes include:
🔹 A worn or misaligned flapper
🔹 A failing fill valve
🔹 An incorrect tank-water level
🔹 A damaged flush valve seal
🔹 A hidden leak between the tank and bowl

Try adding a few drops of food coloring to the toilet tank without flushing. If the color appears in the bowl within about 15 minutes, water is leaking past the seal.

Don’t let a small toilet problem keep running up your water bill. Option One Plumbing can identify the cause and get it fixed properly.

Has your home’s water pressure suddenly changed? Don’t ignore it. 🚿

Low, high, or inconsistent water pressure can be a warning sign of:
🔹 A hidden water leak
🔹 A failing pressure-reducing valve
🔹 Mineral buildup inside the plumbing
🔹 A damaged water service line
🔹 A problem with a well or pressure system

Low pressure makes everyday fixtures frustrating—but excessively high pressure can damage faucets, toilets, appliances, and water lines throughout your home.

If the pressure feels different, let Option One Plumbing find out why before a small issue causes expensive damage.

Your water heater usually gives you a warning before it fails—you just have to know what to look for. ⚠️

Watch for:
🔹 Hot water running out faster than usual
🔹 Popping, rumbling, or banging sounds
🔹 Rust-colored or cloudy hot water
🔹 Moisture around the bottom of the tank
🔹 Water taking longer to heat

These symptoms may point to sediment buildup, corrosion, a failing heating component, or a tank approaching the end of its life.

Don’t wait until you wake up to a cold shower—or find water spreading across the floor. Let the Home Heroes at Option One Plumbing inspect your system and recommend the right solution.
