A blocked or clogged drain line is one of the most common plumbing problems, and pretty much everyone has to deal with them at some point in their lives—but you shouldn't be forced to struggle with clogged drains on a regular basis. Most drainage clogs aren't very serious and can be handled with a plunger and some good old-fashioned elbow grease, but there are some situations that can't be resolved without the help of an experienced plumber. Calgary plumbing systems that are plagued by frequent, unexplained clogs may have something more serious going on, like a damaged wastewater disposal line that needs to be repaired or replaced.

Whether your clogged drains are just basic blockages or a symptom of a deeper issue that requires the services of a plumber, Calgary homeowners are often interested in finding ways to stop clogs before they even start. The most effective ways to avoid clogged drains are to focus on preventative maintenance and take care not to let anything go down the drain that doesn't belong there. For the most part, that means wastewater, toilet paper and human waste only. You may be able to get away with some food scraps if you have an in-sink garburator, but everything else should be kept out of your drains.

It also makes a lot of sense to consider investing in preventative drain cleaning services from your local plumber in Calgary. Homeowners rarely encounter a clogged drain when they get regular drain cleaning because our hydro jetting service removes clog-causing buildup before it can get bad enough to choke off the flow of wastewater. Maintenance appointments also give your plumbers in Calgary the opportunity to notice potential problems and correct them before they can cause a disruption in your daily routines.

There’s no testing necessary to answer this question—it’s safe to say that every building in Calgary has hard water, meaning there are high concentrations of dissolved minerals such as calcium and magnesium in it. However, much like the weather patterns, the entire city doesn’t experience the exact same thing. The water is actually a bit softer in north Calgary at about 166 PPM (mg/L), while the water in south Calgary clocks in at a harder 216 PPM, or parts per million. To put that into perspective, 121 to 180 mg/L is considered hard, while anything over 180 mg/L is very hard.

There are certainly places in Alberta with harder water—Grande Cache has a water hardness of 325 mg/L—but the water is hard enough in both north and south Calgary to cause issues for our plumbing systems that require regular service from a qualified plumber. Calgary's hard water is safe to drink and bathe with, but it's hard on your plumbing system because mineral deposits build up in the pipes over time and slowly choke off the flow of water. In some severe cases, we've seen pipes that had little more than a pinhole left for the water to get through. That's why Calgary and other places with hard water may need hydro jetting more often than places with soft water. You can also speak to your Calgary plumbers about the possibility of installing a water softener.

If you notice a sudden spike in the charges on your water bill, even though your regular routines haven't changed that much, it makes sense to suspect a leak that needs the attention of a plumber. Calgary homeowners should note that the most common water-wasters by far are actually toilets that are constantly running and dripping faucets, so if you have one of those issues happening in your home, that's likely causing the increase on your bill.

But if your toilets and faucets aren't the culprits, and you suspect a hidden plumbing leak on your waterline, you can still do some troubleshooting to narrow down the possibilities. First, make sure all faucets are off, toilets have not just been flushed, and water-using appliances are not running. Check the position of the indicator on your water meter, then check it again after about 10 minutes. If the indicator has moved or is moving on an analog meter or a digital meter is flashing a number other than zero, you likely do have a leak. Now, turn off the main water supply shutoff valve to cut water to the entire house and check the meter again. If it has stopped indicating a leak, the leak is located somewhere after the water shutoff valve. If it's still indicating a leak, the leak is located on the line between the meter and the shutoff valve. Either way, it's important to call us right away for help from an experienced plumber. Calgary homes can suffer a lot of damage in a short amount of time from a hidden leak, so it needs to be taken care of ASAP.

Although there are instances when you might be aware of the precise source of a plumbing problem and seek assistance from a plumber, Calgary residents are often uncertain about the reasons behind issues such as sewer backups, persistent clogged drains, or unexpected spikes in water bills. This is understandable, as we typically associate plumbing with the visible fixtures we frequently interact with. However, the truth is that the majority of our plumbing systems remain concealed behind walls, floors, or underground.

When you contact our team for help from a plumber, you can be confident that we will thoroughly inspect and diagnose the problem at hand. This comprehensive assessment will reveal the exact nature and location of the issue, allowing us to determine the most effective plan to get it resolved. Rest assured that our experienced Calgary plumbers will expertly address the problem, ensuring that your system functions flawlessly once again with the help of a qualified plumber. Calgary plumbing inspection methods include a range of advanced techniques, including state-of-the-art video camera inspections, leak detection methods, and thorough visual inspections of all visible components of your plumbing system. With our expertise and cutting-edge tools, we leave no stone unturned in ensuring the optimal performance of your plumbing.

In a cold climate such as the one here in Calgary, hot water is a necessity for numerous purposes in our daily lives. If you find that your shower turns freezing cold when you're only halfway done, or your water never really seems hot enough no matter how long you let the faucet run, those are clear signs that you need to contact a plumber. Calgary homeowners don't need to just cope with hot water heaters that barely function when they can simply call Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Calgary for water heater repair, water heater installation and routine maintenance services.

When they get the news that they need water heater replacement service from an experienced plumber, Calgary property owners are usually not too happy about the hassle and expense that can come along with a replacement. But there are actually some big benefits of water heater replacement when it's handled by an expert plumber in Calgary. Residents often tell us that they noticed a significant decrease in their energy bills after having a tankless water heater system installed, and the convenience of having ample hot water whenever you need it goes a long way toward making your household more comfortable.
