Get matched with top plumbers in Plain Dealing, LA

Q: Will I need to replace a temporarily fixed pipe?

• <div><p>Yes, you should always call a plumber to replace a pipe that you fixed with a temporary solution. Some temporary pipe leak solutions like pipe leak clamps can last for years and prevent further damage to your home, but eventually, they will fail, at which point you could be looking at more significant water damage and mold growth. Even if you suspect that your temporary solution will last a long time, always call a plumber for a permanent fix. Temporary solutions should be for minimizing damage and avoiding added charges for emergency plumbing services.</p></div>

Q: What sealant can I use for a leaking pipe?

• <div><p>The type of sealant you use on a leaking pipe will depend on the pipe material and the cause of the leak. PVC P-traps should avoid petroleum-based sealants, which can degrade the plastic and worsen the leak. Pipe sealant is specifically designed for use on pipes, but remember&mdash;if your P-trap has a crack&ndash;it&rsquo;s best to replace the pipe to avoid future leaks.</p></div>

Q: Are sewer cameras worth it?

• <div><p>Yes. Sewer cameras are invaluable tools that can help pros safely diagnose problems with your septic system. Without a camera to look into your system, septic issue diagnoses would be a combination of guessing and past experience. However, a camera can help confirm ideas that your pro may already have about what&rsquo;s wrong.</p></div>

Q: How to find hidden water leaks in a house?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll have to look around the house to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-find-leak.htm">find different sources of a hidden leak</a>. Check for water under the sinks in the kitchen, bathrooms, and utility rooms. Look at your bathtubs, showers, and toilets, including inside the toilet tanks. Puddles can form around your water heater, so take a good look around it. Inspect appliances like your washer, dishwasher, and refrigerator as well. Look for stains on the walls and ceilings, and listen for drips and running water.</p></div>

Q: How can I tell if drainage pipes need to be replaced?

• <div><p>To avoid a major drainage pipe issue, it&rsquo;s best to inspect your pipes a few times a year for signs of wear and tear. Some telltale signs that you need to replace your drainage pipes include:</p><ul><li><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/signs-hidden-water-leak-your-bathroom.htm">Leaks</a></p></li><li><p>Rust</p></li><li><p>Musty smells</p></li><li><p>Mold or mildew on walls</p></li><li><p>Moisture stains on walls or ceilings</p></li><li><p>Flaking or discolored pipes</p></li><li><p>Frequent clogs or backups</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

"The plumbers were professional, competent, friendly, and accommodating. They didn't try to gouge me or goad me into getting services I didn't need. They fixed what needed to be fixed and did so in a timely manner. I should also note that a week or so after they repaired the issue in my home, I received a follow up call to check on the status of the repair and to make sure that the plumbers that had been dispatched to my home had acted in a professional way. I've never had a plumber (or any repair service) do a follow up like this. I was very impressed. I would definitely recommend Platinum Plumbing in the future and will use them should the need arise."
