When you hire someone to do work for you, you want to know that you are getting quality work, and this goes for plumbing services. Below are three signs that you had less than stellar plumbing services.

Small Leaks – When you have hired a plumber, they are supposed to fix the leaks. However, if you are still seeing small leaks after the work is done, the work wasn’t the best. Dark streaks below faucets, pitted fixtures and dark spots in your bottom cabinet all indicate a small leak.

Wobbly Fixtures – If a plumber has come and put in new fixtures, they’re not supposed to wobble. If they keep on moving once the plumber is gone, it’s a sign that the work wasn’t the best. Be wary when the faucet, drain, or showerhead is wobbly since it could mean that the mounting isn’t proper.

Joints Are Loose-Fitting – Your joints in your plumbing system should be stable and fit. If the joints are sloppy, you might have costly repairs and future replacements. Check if there are sealants or glues over the joints. It’s possible that they were glued haphazardly. This can be very dangerous.

These are three signs that the plumbing services you hired weren’t the best. Next time, you want to make sure that you are reading reviews and asking for references before you hire someone. Otherwise, you may run into this problem again, and it’s an expensive plumbing problem to have.
