Broken Pipe Replacement & Repair

• Unexplained Water Bills: Leaking or broken pipes waste a surprising amount of water, and that waste shows up on your bill.
• Low Water Pressure: If your faucets or showerheads are trickling instead of flowing, a broken or blocked pipe might be to blame.
• Visible Water Damage: Discoloration or water stains on walls, ceilings, or floors often signal a hidden leak.
• Pooling Water: Puddles on your lawn, basement floor, or anywhere else can indicate a broken underground or interior pipe.
• Strange Smells: A musty odor could mean water is leaking where it shouldn’t. If the smell is more like sewage, you might have a sewer line issue.
• Noisy Pipes: Banging, clanking, or gurgling noises can signal problems like pressure buildup or loose components.

What to do when a pipe breaks

The clock starts ticking the moment you realize a pipe has broken. Here’s what to do:

• Locate your home’s main shutoff valve and turn it off immediately. For gas lines, shut off the gas supply and evacuate the area if you suspect a leak.
• Open all faucets to release any remaining water and reduce pressure in the system.
• Document the damages by taking photos or videos of the affected area for insurance purposes.
• Call Mr. Rooter Plumbing to request an urgent pipe repair or broken pipe replacement.
• While waiting for help, mop up any standing water to prevent mold or further damage.
