Your plumbing pipes may turn out to be a source of distraction at times. Banging, humbling, rattling or squealing noises may be startling, or even annoying. With professional plumbing services around, you can address these issues in a quick time. The point is, the water pipes habitually undergo significant changes in temperature and pressure. Normally, plumbing pipes do not bother you as they remain silent. However, there are times when these noises do distract you and your family members. Hiring an expert to fix the plumbing noise happens to be the most logical solution in these situations.

5 Inexpensive DIY Home Improvement Jobs That Can Boost Your Property Value

Whistling or squealing noise

In general, several small components make up a plumbing system. These are present particularly in valves and faucets. In case a small component like a washer gets worn out, it may produce a whistling or squealing noise when the water flows through it. You would find worn or broken washers close to your washing machine or dishwasher. In case you observe these noises close to the appliances when they remain operational, hire a plumber and get all the valve components inspected.

Rattling noise

Most modern homes have water pipes concealed behind floors, ceilings and walls. You need to fasten suspended pipes securely. In case one of these pipes become loose, you might hear rattling noises as the water passes through that particular area of the pipe. Given that plumbing pipes remain concealed under solid structures, you need to count on a professional plumber.

Gurgling noises

You might hear gurgling noises in water pipes when there’s an obstacle in the way. Normally, gurgling noises in the pipes point to clogs in the pipes. This obstruction may be caused by the accumulation of debris, soap scum, hard water and minerals in the internal walls of the pipes. Besides, certain items may accidentally get into the drainage pipes, leading to gurgling noises. On hiring a professional plumber, you can remove the obstruction and restore the normal functioning of the pipe.

Humming noises

Humming noises in your plumbing pipes indicate a high pressure of water in the system. In case this pressure is beyond the capacity of the system, the pipes start vibrating. In the process, you get to hear the humming noise. In case you have a well at home, have a look at the tank pressure. Under normal conditions, the pressure should not exceed 55 pounds per square inch. Call in the experts in case you have no access to read the pressure of water. They would make the necessary adjustments to do away with the noise.

 Banging noises

Issues with the water flow or pressure may cause banging noises in plumbing pipes. Air bubbles and water hammers often lie at the root of these noises. When a valve or faucet gets shut off all of a sudden, it leads to a water hammer. In these cases, water moving towards the exit at high speed strikes the closed valve, leading to a loud bang. Besides, issues in your pipe can trap air, which may also lead to such noises.

 Ignoring plumbing pipe noises at the initial stages may lead to expensive repairs, as the condition aggravates. Whether you need professional plumbing services for blocked drains or any other condition, it would be wise to reach out to an established plumbing company in your city.
