Plumbing emergencies (or even routine maintenance) can often be an extremely complex undertaking. Due to the sheer number of pipes, connections and faucets, as well as the varying water pressure throughout your house or building, a professional opinion is the way to go. Not only will a professional plumber be able to easily assess and diagnose the problem, they will be able to fix it without getting injured. ABC Plumbing and Rooter in Chandler, AZ have a staff of plumbing experts that are ready to help. When you think of plumbing, many times the only thing considered is the water that runs to the bathroom. Despite the fact that showers and toilets are typically used the most, other devices like sinks, the hot water tank, outdoor spigots and even the refrigerator and freezer need to be considered. Not only do you need to consider the water itself, but the electricity in the appliances that the water runs to. The risk of electrocution is high if precautions are not taken, or the water is not completely turned off or diverted. Aside from the potential for electricity problems, any leaking or escaping water presents the possibility of tool or hand slippage, which is almost as dangerous. A professional plumber will not only consider all of your water inputs and outputs, they are trained to know each of the individual pieces that allow the system to function. Forgetting to tighten one bolt or screw could cause instability – and even total failure – throughout the whole system. These small missteps do not only have the potential to cause you further problems throughout the structure, but to cost a great deal of money in extra repairs, validating the importance of hiring a licensed, bonded and insured plumber. They will event cover the costs of any and all accidents they are liable for, something a generic handyman cannot guarantee. Even if there is no leak, a variation in pressure or small blockage will change the way that the water flows through your pipes. If nothing else, this is a great inconvenience to the person or people using the water. Another reason to leave your plumbing work to the professionals is that injuries can very easily happen by using tools. Pipes are often in tight spaces and underneath floors, so accessing them can be a challenge. Power tools, sharp objects, and a great deal of patience are necessary when making repairs or changes. The smallest slip of a screwdriver or saw could result in the loss of an appendage at the very worst, or a deep cut on the “getting off easy” side. As the spaces plumbing runs through are often dark, the use of a light source during repairs is necessary, and balancing the use of a flashlight or spotlight with your tool use can be tricky. These injuries are easily prevented by allowing someone that knows exactly what tool to use or where to cut take care of the problem. Making an attempt to resolve any plumbing issues that you have without the help of a professional is just not a smart idea. Not only does this prolong the time that the plumbing is out of commission, it may result in severe injury. Leaving the job to the professionals ensures that the task will be completed correctly, in a timely manner, and safely. You’ll get to keep all of your fingers, not have to worry about forgetting some small detail, and there will be no risk of any other bodily harm to yourself or the others using the plumbing system. ABC Plumbing and Rooter’s trained professionals are available to complete a job of any size – from snaking drains to completely replacing damaged pipes and customizing systems. Utilizing their services is a great way to have peace of mind when it comes to the water flow throughout a building of any size.
