Common Plumbing Problems in Skye
No Hot Water?
In many older homes in Skye, particularly those built prior to the 1970s, the hot water system may be affected due to age or corrosion. Many properties have cast iron or old copper pipes that require regular maintenance and replacement.
Blocked Drains?
Tree roots can cause blockages in drains as they grow into underground pipes. Clay pipes are also prone to clogging, especially in areas with clay soils. Local soil conditions like compacted earth can exacerbate the issue.
Low Water Pressure?
Pipe materials like copper or galvanised steel may wear out over time, reducing water pressure. Poorly maintained pipes or faulty valves can also contribute to low water pressure issues in Skye's homes and businesses.
From Our Plumbers
"When attending leak call-outs in Skye, we use electronic leak detection equipment to find hidden leaks without unnecessary digging. This saves homeowners significant repair costs and gets the problem sorted faster."
