Common plumbing problems we fix in Durham
Water spreading under the floor
A split supply line in a vented crawl space can run for days before anyone notices. A soft floor, a musty smell or a meter that keeps turning are the usual clues.
Pipes that froze in a cold snap
Lines in crawl spaces and exterior walls are exposed when temperatures drop below freezing for a few nights. They often split on the thaw rather than the freeze.
Sump pump running constantly
Saturated winter soil keeps crawl-space pumps busy. A pump that never stops, or never starts, needs checking before the next storm.
Slow drains through the whole house
When every fixture drains slowly, the problem is usually in the main line rather than at any single drain.
Well pump cycling on and off
Rapid cycling usually points to a waterlogged pressure tank or a failing pressure switch rather than the pump itself.
What affects the cost of plumbing work in Durham
Before you call
Do you give quotes upfront?
Yes — you get a clear, flat price before any work begins, with no hidden fees.
Is there a call-out fee?
No — estimates for Plumbing in Durham are free and no-obligation.
Are you licensed and insured?
Salem Plumbing is fully licensed and insured for Plumbing across Portland.
Do you work on private wells as well as city water?
Yes. We repair and replace well pumps, pressure tanks and switches, and install filtration for wells with iron, manganese or hardness.
Why do pipes freeze here when winters are mild?
Most homes have supply lines in vented crawl spaces. When a cold snap brings several nights below freezing, exposed lines can freeze and split, usually showing up when they thaw.
Do I need a water softener?
Usually not on city water - Salem and Portland water is soft. Softeners and filters are mainly for private wells with hard water or iron.
