Plumbing problems may cause secondary problems. Leaks in pipes in the walls or ceilings can lead to mold formation or a weakening in the walls or ceiling. Damaged water lines may lead to low water pressure or a lack of water flow to the house. Dripping faucets can keep some people up at night from the echoing of each water drop into a metal sink.

The degree of a leak may make it more difficult to spot, but you can be on the lookout for various signs of a leak in your home. If you notice water bills creeping higher each month, mold growing where it shouldn’t, or damp walls or cabinets, you might have one or more water leaks. These can cause severe water damage over time or produce an environment for mold to thrive. For individuals with allergies or sensitivity to mold, this can be extremely dangerous. Leak detection in water lines can be difficult as the water may travel along the outside of the pipe from the leak location before dripping down. Our plumbing technicians know exactly how to find the source of the leak and replace the pipe if needed.

Sewer leaks can cause gases from the waste-line to back up into the home or cause slow drainage. While some handy homeowners might be able to repair leaky water lines, sewer lines and gas lines must be repaired by a professional plumber. Gas leaks can be especially dangerous due to both an explosive hazard from the gas and from carbon monoxide poisoning to those inside. If you notice a rotten egg smell, it could indicate a sewer leak, but it could also be a dangerous leak in your gas line. Get out of the house immediately, and call C&W Plumbing’s emergency service anytime of the day or night to come and repair the leak immediately.

When you think you have a leak, but don’t know where to find it, call the best plumbing company in Carrollton, C&W Plumbing, at 972-95-2597 to make an appointment.

With so much emphasis on saving money in today’s economy and “going green,” your shower can be the first place in your home to start saving water. The average person in America uses 80-100 gallons of water daily, meaning the average American family uses around 300 gallons of water every day. The biggest water usage comes from flushing the toilet, with the second highest coming from baths and showers. Your Lewisville TX plumber, C&W Plumbing , can offer you solutions to saving water and money today.

The most obvious step to conserving water in your shower is to install a low-flow shower head. By cutting back on your showerhead’s GPM (gallons per minute), your home can decrease its daily water intake while still allowing you to enjoy a shower. Cutting the flow down to somewhere 1-3 GPM can save you 2-4 gallons per minute when you’re in the shower, saving you money off your home’s water bill. Many low-flow shower heads now come with adjustable pressure restrictors, allowing you to adjust the water flow based on personal preferences. So if you like a stronger shower than your spouse, you two can still both get the most out of your shower.

Other simple solutions to saving water would be to limit your shower time. The average American spends 10 minutes in the shower, wasting water in the process. Installing a shower time can make you better aware of your shower duration, cutting down the length to a more reasonable time. Simply set your desired time, and an alarm will sound when you have reached your desired length.

Now more than ever, saving water and money is essential for your home. With these simple water-saving tips, you can do just that. For more information about low-flow showerheads and shower timers, contact our local Lewisville plumbing experts. C&W Plumbing can assist you with all your plumbing needs today. Just give us a call at 972-395-2597 or contact us online.

When it comes to the plumbing system in your home, the possibility of a leak is always there. Even with proper preventative maintenance, sometimes leaks just happen. Before you go about fixing a plumbing leak, however, it is extremely important to diagnose what type it is, so you know exactly what you’re dealing with. By effectively diagnosing the type of leak, you can be better prepared as to how to alleviate the issue. Our Lewisville TX plumbing technicians at C&W Plumbing can assist you in detecting, diagnosing, and repairing these leaks in a timely and efficient manner.

If you notice you have an unusually high monthly water bill, a water leak may be your issue. A water line leak is a serious issue, and can be caused by something as simple as a running toilet or something far more complicated, such as a slab leak. Slab leaks can cause costly damage to your home’s foundation, and are not something to be taken lightly. One of our reliable plumbing professionals can accurately assess the situation in your home, devising the best plan of action to move forward with, and execute it effectively.

Far more serious are sewer leaks and gas leaks. The former is mostly characterized by slow draining in your home, a gurgling sound when flushing the toilet, or a rotten egg smell wafting through your residence. These leaks are usually caused by an obstruction in your drain line, be it a tree root or anything else material in nature. A video camera inspection can determine the cause of the obstruction.

Gas leaks are the most serious of all the types of leaks in your plumbing system. Gas leaks are dangerous in that they are silent in nature, but vastly increase the chances of extreme fire or carbon monoxide poisoning. Gas leaks are often fatal, so if you suspect you have one in your home, it is best to evacuate and wait for a technician to ensure your home is safe for you and your family.

As any homeowner knows, clogged drains can be one of the most inconvenient common problems in your kitchen or bathroom. For those drain cleaning dilemmas that simple snaking cannot solve, however, what is a homeowner to do? Luckily, our trained Lewisville TX plumbing technicians at C&W Plumbing offer a service called hydrojetting, essential when other methods have failed.

What hydrojetting does is clean your sewer pipe through powerful blasts of high-pressure water. The most powerful of our drain cleaning services,  these strong streams of water can help clear up any debris or material buildup that may be present in your pipes. With a hose and special high-strength nozzle, the water can take care of the large excess buildup of grease, grime, and mineral deposits that other methods have failed to clear. Even the most stubborn sediment buildup is no match for our hydrojetting service.

Before beginning hydrojetting, our team of trained Lewisville TX plumbers can offer you a camera inspection of your drain lining to determine the exact cause of your problem. We can determine the location, as well as the extent of the problem, deciding if hydrojetting is needed or if there are other viable options. We will develop a game plan for your clogging problems, executing it in a timely and cost-effective manner.

If you are experiencing a clogged drain or think your sewer lines are in need of a scouring, please don’t hesitate to give us a call at 972-395-2597 or contact us online today to schedule an appointment.

The clogging of bathtub drains is something almost every homeowner will have to deal with. Unlike many household problems, however, the root of this draining difficulty is not from a one-time occurrence, but the gradual buildup of excess material over time.  Although the experts at C&W Plumbing of Lewisville are always here to assist you with any drain cleaning needs, as a homeowner, it is important to understand what may have caused the problem in the first place.

Clogged bathtubs are most often caused by one of three things. The best bet as to the culprit would be hair, as when you wash your hair and shed some dead pieces, the hair has nowhere to go but down the drain. It can become stuck to the sides of the piping, building up over time and attaching on to other excess material, preventing proper drainage.

Another common cause would be soap scum, which, like hair, builds up in your drain over time. For those unaware, soap scum is what can cause solid white stains on your otherwise clean shower walls, and results when soap is combined with hard water.

Hard water itself is the last likely reason for a backed-up bathtub.  Hard water contains high mineral content, which, although not noticeable to the naked eye, can prove costly when it comes to the life of your drain. A simple solution to alleviate this issue is to install a water softener, which can combat the high levels of calcium and magnesium in your water supply. Our trained Lewisville plumbing technicians can install this device for you.

With this knowledge, a backed-up bathtub should be one less household hazard you have to worry about. If experiencing a clogged drain, as always, please call or contact us online to schedule a service.

When summertime hits and Lewisville residents are ready to get outdoors and have a good time, the last thing on their mind is their plumbing system. However, it’s important to note that the pleasantries of heat and sunshine that are so compatible with fun in the sun can also cause destruction and devastation to plumbing fixtures. Taking a few precautions can help you avoid costly repairs from your local Lewisville plumbing company.

When you spend a lot of time outdoors, your clothes are bound to get dirty, especially children who play in the dirt or on playgrounds with dust and dirt and mud. This can lead to excess material in your washing machine hose, including additional lint and large amounts of dirt clogging the hose. By moving the washing machine away from the wall a few inches, you can remove kinks that cause additional blockage, which can lead to bulging, cracks and leaks. Make sure to clean out your machine to keep your washer running.

During a cookout, it is best to have garbage cans for leftovers so you can be more careful what you put down the garbage disposal. Residential garbage disposers are not typically equipped for hefty loads such as cornhusks or other fibrous and stringy foods. You may also want to avoid throwing a great deal of fat that can lead to large clogs in the pipes down your drain. A number of “just-add-water” foods, such as stuffing or mashed potatoes, will also create instant clogs.

Something else to watch for so you don’t end up with a disaster during your party is sewer drain backup. Due to excess rainwater that can seep through cracks in the sewer line, as well as new growth of tree roots that can invade your sewer system at any time, spring and summer are the most common times for a sewer problem. Since you don’t want the mess, smell, or hassle – especially during the neighborhood barbecue – have your Lewisville plumbing technicians inspect your sewer lines prior to risking a backup.

Taking a few simple precautions when it comes to proper plumbing can help you pull off your summer fling without a hitch. And if you find any plumbing repairs that need to be addressed, call our local Lewisville plumbers for fast, efficient plumbing service.

There are many methods to cleaning clogged drains. The most popular methods are a plunger and a harsh chemical gel or liquid cleaner. If you want to go green and keep the more toxic chemicals out of your home and pipes, then there are a few things to understand.

Green drain cleaners or “enzymatic” drain cleaners feed on the organic waste in the drain through enzymes. They then digest and reproduce creating “good” bacteria that continues to spread all without the use of harsh or dangerous chemical. Undoubtedly, this is better for your pipes and the rest of your home, yard and family.

If you don’t want to purchase a green drain cleaner, there are plenty of home remedy mixtures for unclogging your drain. Try pouring boiling hot water down the drain. Heat can be a great tool to loosen clumped or crusted waste. Mixtures of baking soda, vinegar, and salt flushed with hot water after sitting for 30 minutes to an hour can also help unclog most drains without the use of harsh or toxic chemicals.

The best way to keep your drain clean is through preventative plumbing maintenance. Clean your sink strainers and stoppers. Don’t pour just anything down your sink or shower drain. Avoid pouring grease and large chunks of food down your drain or disposal. Buy screen covers for your shower drain to avoid hair buildup.

When in doubt, always call the professionals at your local Lewisville TX plumbing service. C&W Plumbing is here for all your residential plumbing repair and maintenance. Give us a call or go online to schedule an appointment now.

When leaks are found around the home, whether found within the foundation or around pipes, there is always room for concern. If you spot a leak but can’t figure out how it got there, you may have a slab leak, and it may be time for one of our Lewisville TX, plumbers, Plano TX plumbers or Flower Mound TX plumbers to assist you.

A slab leak is a crack in the pipes creating a water leak within the concrete foundation of a building. This is a very serious issue, as slab leaks cause extreme damage to a home inside and out. There are several symptoms that you can look for to detect a slab leak early and, most importantly, save yourself a lot of time, energy and money down the road.
