Water Valve Installation FAQs
In the majority of situations, we can repair failed valves. What appears to be a small issue now can lead to major failure in the future. If a valve is leaking, does not turn or is loose then an overhaul repair is often the most effective solution. Our specialists can eliminate these problems and get valves working again.
However, on occasion the valve may have completely failed internally and then, replacement is the only option.
On average, well-maintained valves can last up to twenty years and sometimes more. However, poorly maintained valves will need to be replaced sooner.
Leaks, reduced flow, unusual noises or difficulty in turning the valve handle are several indicators that your valve needs attention and service.
Maintenance should be carried out as a minimum on a quarterly basis as highlighted in industry guides and will avoid issues and major failure of the valve.
