About J Blanton Plumbing in Arlington Heights, IL

First, turn off the dishwasher and the water supply valve located beneath your sink to prevent further water damage. Check for obvious issues like a loose drain hose or a clogged filter. For Arlington Heights residents, a common cause of leaks is a worn door gasket or a faulty water inlet valve, often due to our local water conditions. J Blanton Plumbing can diagnose the specific cause, whether it's a simple repair or a connection issue with your garbage disposal, and get your kitchen back in order quickly.

That sound, often called water hammer, is common in Arlington Heights homes and occurs when water flow is suddenly stopped, causing pipes to shake. It can stress your plumbing system over time. The issue might be loose pipe straps in your walls or a faulty pressure regulator. J Blanton Plumbing can inspect your water pipes, secure any loose sections, and install or repair water hammer arrestors to eliminate the noise and protect your plumbing from potential damage.

We always check if a repair is the most cost-effective solution first. Often, a jammed disposal can be cleared, or a reset button on the unit can solve the problem. However, if the motor is burnt out or the unit is old and frequently failing, a new installation may be more reliable and efficient in the long run. J Blanton Plumbing will provide an honest assessment and expert installation of a new disposal if needed, ensuring it's properly connected to your sink and drain lines to prevent future leaks.
