How to judge plumbing work
Most plumbing emergencies are the visible end of a slow problem: a supply line that has been weeping behind drywall, a water heater whose anode rod gave up years ago, or a drain line that has been narrowing with scale. The value of a good plumber is largely in catching the slow version before it becomes the loud one.
Water pressure, pipe material and water chemistry interact more than most homeowners expect. Hard water shortens fixture life; pressure above roughly 80 psi stresses every joint in a house. Asking what a plumber measures — not just what they replace — is a fair way to judge one.
| Component | Typical service interval | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Water heater flush | Annually | Sediment reduces efficiency and shortens tank life |
| Anode rod check | 2–4 years | A spent rod moves corrosion to the tank itself |
| Supply hoses (washer) | Replace every 5 years | Burst hoses are a leading cause of water damage |
| Main shutoff exercise | Annually | A seized valve turns a small leak into a large one |
| Drain line inspection | As symptoms appear | Slow drains often precede a full blockage |
