Why a Burst Pipe Is a Plumbing Emergency
A burst pipe is a plumbing emergency that requires immediate repairs. If a pipe breaks, at first only a small amount of water may be released, however, soon hundreds of gallons of water could be gushing into your property. This can cause extensive water damage to your flooring, walls, insulation, and even electrical system. Mold and mildew can grow if there is an excess of moisture. To try to limit the damage, call the experts at Pride Plumbing for services in New London.
How To Avoid Clogged Drains
A clogged drain at your house or building can create a major nuisance for your household or building occupants. To avoid these, follow these tips to prevent blockages:
- Scrape extra food into the trash and not down the sink when washing dishes.
- Never put grease down the drain. Instead, let it cool and then throw it in the trash instead of down the drain.
- Don’t let your hair cause blockages. Install a screen over the drain in your shower and tub to collect it.
- Avoid flushing anything other than sewage and toilet paper down the toilet.
- Schedule regular professional drain cleanings to remove any smaller blockages before they become larger.

Common Water Heater Problems
You rely on your water heater to provide hot water for showers, baths, laundry, and more at your house. When it malfunctions it can create an inconvenience. Some common problems you might encounter with your unit can include:
- Your unit isn’t producing hot water: The most noticeable issue with your system can be if it stops producing hot water. If you have a gas-powered unit this can be due to an extinguished pilot light. It could also be caused by a severely damaged heating element.
- Your system is leaking: Have any leaks inspected by a plumber to determine if they can be repaired or if the unit should be replaced.
- You hear odd noises: Strange noises coming from your unit can be due to a damaged heating element or a buildup of sediment inside the system.
- You see cracks: Any cracks in the unit should be examined by a professional.

Pride Plumbing was called out for a shower water diverter not working properly. Our inspection found that it was installed incorrectly. We took it apart and reinstalled it properly. We then tested the diverter, and it functioned correctly.

Pride Plumbing was called out for an American Standard toilet tank that would run constantly and not fill. Our inspection determined that the tank’s water fill valve was malfunctioning. We replaced the water fill valve with a new Fluidmaster PRO45B model along with its above-floor braided stainless steel water supply line and tested for leaks and proper operation with no issues. We also provided a cost estimate to replace the toilet with a new Gerber Viper model. This would include draining and pulling the old toilet, inspecting/cleaning/replacing the flange, replacing the toilet bowl, toilet tank, flapper, water fill valve, tank to bowl gasket and bolts, seat, wax ring gasket, toilet bowl bolts, toilet bowl bolt washers, toilet bowl bolt caps, and above-floor stainless steel braided water supply line.

This would include performing the following work: 1) trenching a ditch from an existing water meter to the home to expose and remove the outside main water supply line; 2) installing a new 1-inch black roll and PEX outside main water supply line from the water meter to the house along with installing tracer wire; 3) connecting the new water line to an existing water line connection under the house and installing a thermal expansion tank and ball valve main water cut off in the crawlspace; 4) installing a new pressure reducing valve (PRV), ball valve, and check valve at the water meter in the meter box; 5) testing the new water line for leaks and working order; and 6) backfilling and tamping the ditch after the work is completed and approved by Stanly County’s Inspection Department.
