Signs of a Broken Hose Spigot
If you notice any of these problems, contact Gilmore for outdoor faucet repairs in Sacramento:
- Foundational Damage: Leaking spigots can lead to water seeping into your home’s foundation, weakening the structure.
- Visible Damage: Whether you see rust, dents, or cracks, you’ll need to have the fixture looked at. If there is severe damage, spigot replacement services may be necessary.
- Low Water Pressure: If you're experiencing low water pressure inside your home, it could be due to leaking outdoor faucets.
- Water Pools: Unusual water pooling in your yard can indicate a leaking spigot or an underground pipe issue. This often happens when the ground can't quickly absorb excess water.
Common Problems with Outdoor Faucets that Need Repairs
Because they are more vulnerable to the weather, outdoor spigots can experience different problems. Our plumbing experts can find the solution for various issues, including:
- Leaking Spigot: Leaks can occur at the spigot or hose connection due to worn-out washers, gaskets, or seals.
- Frozen Pipes: As the temperature drops, outdoor spigots can freeze, causing pipes to crack or burst. In this case, we’ll have to spot-repair small areas or replace the unit.
- Low Water Pressure: Debris buildup, mineral deposits, or partially closed shut-off valves can cause low water pressure. In this case, we’ll have to unclog the spigot.
- Broken Handles: Over time, handles can become damaged or stripped, making it difficult to turn the spigot on or off. Replacing the handle or the entire spigot may be the best repair option.
- Damaged Hose Bib: Constant use can damage the hose bib, which is where the hose connects to the spigot. Hose bib replacement services are the best solution for this issue.
To lower the risk of problems, our team can help you select and install spigots and hoses that work efficiently. This can help lower your water bill and prevent costly malfunctions.
