Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my toilet keep getting clogged?

Recurring clogs in any plumbing fixture is a sign of a larger blockage deep in the sewer pipe. It is worth asking a plumbing professional to inspect the pipe and provide a method such as hydrojetting to clear the clog.

Can a small leak really cause significant damage?

Yes. Even a slow leak can damage drywall, flooring, cabinets, and framing over time. Early repair can help prevent more costly repairs later.

What if I think I have a hidden leak?

Hidden leaks can show up as water stains, mold growth, damp areas, or unexpectedly high water bills. Our team can inspect the plumbing system and recommend the next steps.

Can you replace outdated plumbing fixtures during a remodel?

Yes. We can help homeowners update plumbing fixtures and components as part of a remodeling or renovation project.

Will a new fixture improve efficiency?

In many cases, newer plumbing fixtures can provide better performance and improved water efficiency compared to older models.

Can you install plumbing components supplied by the homeowner?

Installation requirements vary depending on the project. We can discuss the equipment and determine whether it is appropriate for the installation.

Why do I have low water pressure?

Low water pressure can be a result of blockages in fixtures, a valve not opening all the way, your pipe system being outdated, or a hidden leak somewhere in your plumbing.

Why does my shower take forever to get hot?

This could be because of the distance between your water heater and the shower, the diameter of your pipes, or because your water heater tank might have an issue, like a build up of sediment.

Do I need a permit to remodel my bathroom?

This depends on the scope of the work involved. When you hire John Owens Services for the job, we handle the permit process for you.
