Plumbing Service Utica MI | Call Kenneth Clark Plumbing

Low pressure in one fixture, like a shower, is often a localized issue we can fix. It's commonly a clogged aerator, a faulty pressure-balancing valve in the cartridge, or mineral buildup in the showerhead—all part of our standard faucet and shower repair services. However, if low pressure is throughout your house, it could indicate a more serious problem like a hidden leak or main line issue, which our plumbing inspection can identify. We'll diagnose the root cause accurately to restore your water pressure efficiently.

A leak at the toilet's base is almost always a failed wax seal, a common issue in older Utica homes. This is a standard repair we perform routinely. We'll remove the toilet, clean the area, and install a new, heavy-duty wax or rubber seal to create a perfect watertight connection to the drain flange. A full toilet replacement is only necessary if the toilet itself is cracked or you're looking to upgrade. We'll advise you honestly on the most cost-effective and lasting solution during our visit.

For a slow drain, we start with a thorough inspection using a drain camera. This lets us see exactly what's happening inside your pipes—whether it's grease buildup common in kitchen drains, a partial collapse, or tree root intrusion. Based on what we find, we'll recommend the right solution. Often, a professional hydro-jetting clears the clog. If we find a damaged section, our drain repair service can replace just that segment, saving you the cost and mess of a full re-pipe. We prioritize fixing the problem correctly the first time.
