Types of pipes

You can use a plunger to unclog minor plugs in your drains. For severe and major clogs in your drain, contact MidCity Plumbers for help unclogging your kitchen drains, bathroom drains or shower drains.

By getting a drain stopper, it can help filter out food particles, hair and debris from entering your drain and causing build up. Never dispose of anything down the drain that is not recommended.

Minor clogs can be cleared with do-it-yourself methods, but major clogs will require a professional plumber at MidCity Plumbers to ensure there is no further damage to your drains.

The first step is to turn off the main water supply. Then turn off the electricity if you can do so without stepping in the water. Next, evacuate the house and call an emergency plumber at MidCity Plumbers to respond quickly to diagnose the problem and begin water damage restoration.

There are many reasons why pipes may burst. Some of the reasons are: increase in water pressure, frozen pipes, corrosion and incorrectly installed pipes. This can cause water damage and flooding, which can quickly become expensive to repair.

Different types of noises water pipes indicate a specific issue. If the water pressure is too high, it can cause water pipes to make loud banging or humming noises. Gurgling noises occur when pipes have difficulty draining. Rattling noises are caused by pipes that may not be secured tightly enough, which causes noises when water moves through the section of the pipe. Whistling noises indicate some or more parts are worn out and need replacing. MidCity Plumbers specializes in determining which course of action to take for each noise and repairs the issue quickly and efficiently.

The most common sources of a leaky faucet are a worn out O ring, washer or gasket, which will need to be replaced. This can be easily fixed quickly without a professional. The basic steps are: switching off the water supply, removing the handle, removing the stem, installing the new stem and then reattaching the faucet handle. However, if you need help changing your O ring, washer or gasket, MidCity Plumbers is happy to help.
