The Common Symptoms of Water Heater Repair
You rely on your water heater on a daily basis. From taking warm and comfortable showers in the morning to washing your laundry, which is why keeping an eye out for trouble is key. If you have a traditional water heater in your home - a tanked system - it’s more susceptible to wear and tear because of its constant contact with water. As such - water heater repairs may be needed more often. Some common symptoms include:
- Rust colored water or rusting around valves
- Water leaks
- Banging or grinding noises
- Little to no hot water
- High energy costs
- Low water pressure
- Foul smelling water
At Honest Abe’s Home Services we offer expert water heater repair services. We work hard to find you a quality solution that’ll get your system back up and running. If your water heater is beyond repair, we also offer replacements, and can even upgrade your home with a tankless water heater.
How to Prevent Clogged Drains
As far as residential plumbing goes, one of the more common plumbing repair issues around is a clogged drain. A majority of homeowners may try a DIY approach to this, but it may not always work - particularly if you use a store-bought chemical drain cleaner that can damage your pipes. A good way to solve this issue is by preventing it.
Always pay attention to what you’re throwing down the drain. Cooking grease can harden and create a blockage in your plumbing along with larger kitchen scraps and debris. The same can be said for excess hair in the bathrooms. Mix that in with soap scum and shampoo and you have a combination for disaster.
The best way to prevent a clogged drain is by putting a trap over any exposed drains. This way you can easily clean it, and nothing ever makes its way inside. Additionally, you can schedule regular sewer line inspection and drain cleaning from our expert plumbers. We’ll keep the water flowing - guaranteed!

Water Heater Maintenance
Maintaining your home's water heater is crucial to ensuring a steady supply of hot water and avoiding costly repairs. One of the most common symptoms of a water heater in need of repair is a lack of hot water or water that doesn't reach the desired temperature. This could be due to a faulty heating element, thermostat, or other internal components that have worn down over time.
Another sign that your water heater needs attention is strange noises, such as rumbling or popping sounds, which can indicate a buildup of sediment in the tank. Regular flushing and maintenance can help extend the life of your water heater and prevent these issues from occurring.
Drain Maintenance Tips
Preventing clogged drains is an essential aspect of home maintenance. One effective way to keep your drains clear is to be mindful of what goes down them. Avoid pouring grease, oil, or other heavy substances down the sink, as they can solidify and cause blockages over time.
Additionally, regularly using a drain cover or strainer can catch hair, food particles, and other debris before they enter the pipes. For older homes or drains that tend to clog frequently, consider having a professional plumber perform a thorough cleaning and inspection of the sewer line to identify and address any underlying issues.
