Low water pressure is a common issue in older homes and can indicate anything from sediment buildup in pipes to leaks or corrosion. If you notice a sudden or gradual decrease in pressure, it’s worth investigating further.

Rusty or discolored water is a clear sign of aging pipes, often due to corrosion in galvanized steel or cast-iron plumbing. This issue is more than just an aesthetic concern—it can also affect water quality.

Occasional clogs are normal, but persistent blockages could point to underlying issues like tree root intrusion, outdated pipe materials, or deteriorating sewer lines.

Banging, gurgling, or whistling sounds in your pipes may be symptoms of water hammer, trapped air, or pipe degradation. These noises are often early warnings that your plumbing system needs attention.

Water stains on ceilings, walls, or floors are common signs of hidden leaks. Even minor leaks can cause significant damage over time, leading to mold growth and structural concerns.

An unexplained spike in your water bill could indicate a hidden leak. Checking your meter when water is not in use can help confirm if there’s a problem.

In homes built decades ago, plumbing materials may no longer meet modern standards. For example, lead or polybutylene pipes should be replaced for safety and durability.
