If you have some skills with tools, you may try to fix little plumbing issue. Replace those washers, tighten up a leak, and grab the plunger. However, there are situations not suited to DIY Plumbing. That’s when you start booking for expert plumbing services in Bucks County, PA. Barner Murphy has a reputation for quality work and outstanding customer service.

When Should I Call the Experts for Plumbing Problems?

It’s easy to overlook plumbing. But when something goes wrong, it can be a big “something.” There are specific situations in which you need plumbing services in Bucks County. Here are just a few.

• Water Heater Failure

Having no hot water is a frustrating inconvenience. However, a failed water heater might leak if there are tank cracks. For those with gas water heaters, there’s a safety issue involved. Watch for odd smells and report them immediately. Barner Murphy carries a line of exceptional water heaters to replace your broken one. 

• Toilet backup that doesn’t stop: 

Close the valve where the toilet gets water. Human waste backup is a health and safety matter. Call Barner Murphy, and let us get to the heart of the problem.

• Clogged Sink

Nothing you’ve tried gets the sink flowing again. Don’t be tempted to us chemicals at this point. Some drain clog removers can actually harm your plumbing. So, reach out to your friendly neighborhood plumbing service in Bucks County. A quick response means your shower will be up and running quickly.

• No Water or Water Pressure

You need a plumbing expert to find the reason why you have no water or your water pressure is slim and none. DIY won’t work. Walls and yards require inspection to diagnose the culprit.

• Water Main Break

This is a job for the town or county utility crews. You may see flooding in the streets, and water may become contaminated. Sometimes water raises to your sidewalk or lawn. You will be without water until they find and repair the problem.

• Burst Pipes

If not addressed quickly, the water from a burst pipe can damage ceilings, floors, and walls. Later, this can lead to mold, meaning remediation. Barner Murphys plumbing services in Bucks County include assistance with this matter. 

• Leaks

You’ve tightened that pipe 10 times, and it still leaks persistently. Or, perhaps you are finding signs of leaks with no source. Leaks should be fixed as soon as possible. Pipes are like the arteries in a home and contribute heavily to your house’s overall plumbing health.

Knowledge Matters

Master plumbers go through years of training. They have all the tools necessary to fix water systems, and you’ve probably never heard of (or seen) half of them. DYI vs. hiring a professional means being honest with your level of ability. A Yahoo video can only do so much. Your repair efforts are not guaranteed, meaning you may have to spend more time and money trying to resolve something.  

Remember the phrase, “water has its way.” While you may think you’ve fixed a problem, it could stem from a different source altogether. A professional plumber can examine the situation and trace the water to avoid more damage. 

Barner Murphy strives for the “do it once; do it right” mindset. You will be part of our repair process from the first inspection until the project’s end. You get quality results with no hidden fees, and our work comes with a guarantee.
