It's possible to start a bathroom renovation project or repairs without even considering any underlying plumbing issues, but to take this approach usually ends in disaster. Some plumbing problems are easily fixed and easy plumbing jobs can be safely done by the handy homeowner, but more difficult bathroom renovation issues should only be repaired by a licensed plumber - it's important to know the difference.

Bathroom Plumbing Problems

Before you begin your bathroom renovation job or any major repairs, do an audit of the current plumbing problems there might be with your system and setup. You need to consider the following plumbing issues.

Kenilworth, NJ (PRWEB) March 14, 2013 -- As the winter season enters its latter stages the bitterly cold temperatures have placed considerable strain on home heating equipment that has had to run virtually non-stop during the prolonged cold snaps. In addition, “roller-coaster” temperature swings have placed “stop-and-start” stress on home heating equipment as it is called upon to first keep the home warm and comfortable during a plunge in temperatures, then sit idle for prolonged periods of time as warmer weather blankets the region. For many unfortunate families the result has been no heat on the coldest days.

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) January 12, 2013 -- Consumers turn their faucets on every day and assume safe drinking water is immediately available. However, when water pressure fails or is reduced, contaminated water from the ground, storage, or other systems can be drawn into the water supply.

To prevent this occurrence, backflow devices are needed. For example, lawn irrigation systems need a vacuum breaker backflow preventer to protect against lawn and pesticide chemicals being drawn in from the lawn and back into the drinking water supply. The University of Southern California Foundation for Cross –Connection Control and Hydraulic Research conducted a study to determine the degree of protection against backflow that is present in today’s homes. They found that nearly 10 percent of residences had direct health hazard cross-connections.
