Does your sink problem sound like any of these?

My sink is clogged

Sink clogs are one of the most common sink repair calls we get. There are many things that can result in clogged sinks. In the bathroom, clumps of soap, hair, and dirt can get trapped on the sink stopper or build up in the P-trap, blocking water from flowing through and then out of the drain.

In the kitchen, soap, grease, and food particles can build up along the walls of your pipes, eventually getting large enough that they block water flow.

My sink is leaking

Almost everyone has had to deal with a leaky sink at some point — a sink that won’t stop dripping no matter how hard you try to turn it off. And let’s face it: Faucets are some of the most used appliances in your home, so they’re bound to leak eventually.

Fortunately, faucet repair or replacement is no problem for the experts at James A. Wheat & Sons. Call us as soon as you notice a leaky faucet — the constant dripping can corrode fixtures, stain sink bowls, and waste lots of water.

A few of my sinks have low water pressure

If the water pressure in a few of your sinks is wonky while others are normal, there could be a few things wrong: You may have faulty aerators, rotting pipes, or other plumbing issues.

If you notice strange water pressure issues, call Wheat & Sons for a quick diagnostic — the problem may be a quick fix, or it may require more detailed plumbing work.

I have bad odors coming from my sink

Bad odors from sinks are another fairly common problem, and fixing it ranges from easy to slightly complex.

If you’re getting bad odors from your sink as a result of a dried-up P-trap, run the faucet for about 30 seconds to fill it back up. If it’s a faucet you don’t use very often, make sure you run it periodically so the trap doesn’t dry out.

If this doesn’t work, the bad odors may be the result of a bacterial biofilm developing in your pipes. Bacteria from the biofilm are released into the air when you run your sink, resulting in a foul odor.

If this is the case, call James A. Wheat & Sons. Our expert plumbers can clean out your drains so you won’t have to deal with nasty smells.

Sink Installation

Whether you’re building a new home or renovating your kitchen or bathroom, we guarantee we’ll install your new sink quickly and efficiently. We’re experts at making sure all the seals, fittings, and other components secure the sink to the counter in a manner guaranteed to protect your cabinets and countertops from damage.

We adhere to strict quality controls throughout the installation process to ensure the sink installation meets the highest quality standards and most precise installation requirements that comply fully with area building codes and standards.

Sink Replacement

Porcelain sinks crack. Metal sinks rust. Stone sinks chip and flake. Design styles change, and your needs evolve. When your old sink doesn’t fit your home anymore, or the damage is too severe to repair, we’ll remove it and replace it with the new sink of your choice.

We’re experts at installing drop-in sinks, under-mounted sinks, farmhouse sinks, and more. We have extensive experience with solid surfaces, stone, enamel, copper, and stainless steel sinks. We’re happy to tell you which options are best for your needs and the preferences.

Sink Repair

Day in and day out, your sinks can take a beating. Razors, dropped soap dishes, children’s toys, pots and pans, cleaning agents, and other items can easily damage the surface. As cracks form and scratches emerge, the damage can significantly diminish the look and reliability of your sink.

Our team can repair a wide range of damage to your sink, whether made of porcelain, stone, stainless steel, aluminum, etc. We adhere to strict quality standards and will tell you the outcome you can expect before our team performs the repair.
