Frequently Asked Questions
How can a plumbing inspection help with my home's low water pressure in Hillsboro?
Low pressure in Hillsboro is often due to mineral deposits in older pipes or issues with the pressure regulator. Our detailed inspection checks your entire system—from the main line entry to individual fixtures—to pinpoint the exact cause. We'll identify if it's a simple clogged aerator, a problem with your home's pressure-reducing valve, or a more significant pipe restriction, then explain your repair options clearly.
What does Gavco look for during a toilet inspection to find a leak?
When inspecting a leaking toilet, we first check the wax seal between the toilet base and the floor drain, a common failure point. We also examine the tank bolts, the fill valve connection, and the supply line for moisture. Our inspection determines if the leak is causing hidden water damage to your subfloor, which is crucial to address promptly to prevent mold or structural issues in your Hillsboro home.
Why is a professional plumbing inspection recommended before I try to fix a leak myself?
While a running toilet might seem straightforward, the true source of a leak can be tricky to locate. An inspection ensures we identify the correct problem—like a faulty flapper versus a cracked tank—so you don't spend time and money on the wrong parts. For Hillsboro homeowners, this saves hassle and prevents minor issues from turning into major water damage repairs down the line.
