Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my toilet keep clogging?

This can be due to a larger clog deeper down in the sewer pipe. Professional plumbers can locate the area of this blockage using sewer cameras and dislodge it with techniques such as hydrojetting.

Why does my shower take forever to get hot?

This can be because of the distance between your shower and your water heater or even the diameter of your pipes. It can also point to an issue with your water heater tank, like sediment buildup.

Why did my water bill jump so high?

This could be because your plumbing fixtures may have grown inefficient, or you have a hidden leak.

Should I consider repiping my home?

Repiping is a good idea if your plumbing system is more than 40-50 years old. You also might ocnsider it if you are experiencing frequent leaks, rusty water from fixtures, and low water pressure.

Do I need a permit to replace my water heater?

Permits are typically required for water heater installations. John Owens Services takes care of all permit processes when you hire us for the job.

Do you install customer-provided fixtures?

Installation options can vary based on the project. We can discuss your goals and determine the best solution for your plumbing installation.

Can new plumbing fixtures improve efficiency?

Yes, many times it is the case that updated plumbing fixtures will vastly improve the efficiency of your home when paied with proper maintenance.

Do you work on remodeling projects?

Yes! We can assist with bathroom, kitchen, and other plumbing-related remodeling projects.

Why are my pipes making banging noises?

This could be because of loose pipes, too high water pressure, or the pipes expanding due to the water temperature.
