Unblocking laundry drain lines and cleaning floor drains
Have you ever loaded your washing machine only to come back 30 minutes later to find soap and water all over the floor? In most cases this is caused by a backed-up drain line that needs to be addressed by a certified plumbing professional.
Flooding is a common problem that results from faulty laundry drain lines. It’s not uncommon for lint and other debris to build up in the lines to cause a blockage. A qualified plumber from VFP Plumbing can determine how best to tackle the job, typically with an electric auger or a jet-rodding application that will clear the drain line.
Utility sink and faucet repair and installation in your laundry room
Utility sinks in laundry rooms and garages get some pretty heavy-duty use. These sinks help us tackle dirty jobs that involve grime, mud and dirt. However, all that debris going down the drain can cause some issues over time. In fact, if the drain in the utility sink isn’t cleared out from time to time a blockage is inevitable.
In the utility sink faucet, a loose cartridge or stem can lead to leaks. The cartridge often becomes twisted inside the faucet, which will cause it to break and leak. With just a few tools and parts, a qualified plumber can address any problem with a utility sink faucet, sink or drain.
Frozen pipes and leak repair
Laundry rooms are sometimes located in areas of the house that don’t require a great amount of heat because they are rarely occupied. But when the winter rolls around and you’re hit with some particularly nasty weather, these areas of the house can be severely impacted if the water lines become frozen.
A frozen line is caused by the expansion of freezing water within it. This can result in cracked pipes, which will leak and cause water damage as well as mold and mildew issues that can pose a health risk. Old World Plumbing can locate the damaged area(s) and make the necessary repairs. We’re also able to thaw frozen or partially frozen pipes and replace any piping or valves that are beyond repair.
Washing machine leak and repair services
There are numerous reasons why a washing machine can leak. The drainage hose coming out of the back of the machine can become cracked or clogged; the drain can become filled with debris and completely blocked; the water valves leading to the machine can malfunction or the unit itself can have a major flaw that leads to leaking.
At VFP Plumbing, we’re experts in laundry room plumbing issues. We can get to the bottom of your washing machine leak, making the necessary repairs to get you back up and running in very little time.
Tips for maintaining your laundry plumbing
A properly maintained laundry room will experience minimal plumbing issues. Taking care of essential plumbing systems will allow clean water to flow to your laundry room and allow wastewater to drain efficiently.
Unfortunately, most people take an “out of sight, out of mind” approach to their plumbing, which means they are surprised by plumbing emergencies that can often be avoided with regular maintenance.
Consider this: if your laundry plumbing is dripping at the rate of two drops a minute, that will add up to around 70 gallons of wasted water over a year’s time. But because leaks don’t fix themselves, those two drops will increase to a slow dribble as the conditions that led to the leak continue to worsen.
To prevent small problems from becoming large ones, schedule a regular maintenance schedule with a qualified plumber and have any repairs made immediately.
Checking the washing machine hoses and clearing drain lines every month drastically reduces the rate of incidents. Properly insulating water lines in drafty areas will prevent line freezing issues. Talk to a VFP Plumbing professional about other maintenance tasks you can undertake to stay on top of your laundry room plumbing.
