How Much Does It Cost to Fix Low Water Pressure?

Asking how much it will be to fix low water pressure is kind of an impossible question to answer because there are so many causes for low water pressure. Some fixes will be free, and some can be very costly.

For instance, if the problem is a blocked aerator on your faucet causing low water pressure in just one sink, unscrewing it and cleaning it off and replacing it can fix the problem. Similarly, if you and all of your neighbors have low water pressure, there may be a problem with your municipality’s water supply, which they will be responsible for fixing, not you. In both of these cases, increasing water pressure may take some time to achieve or to advocate for, but they will not cost you anything monetarily. 

On the other hand, if you have a pipe clog so bad that it cannot be broken up, a plumber may have to replace a portion of your home plumbing pipe. Depending on where it is located, this may involve cutting into drywall, which is going to be a very costly fix. In some cases your main line may need to be rodded or hydro jetted, which will be a more expensive fix than simply roto rooting or using reverse water pressure to suck out a clog. Similarly, if your shower or sink faucet is all corroded inside and needs to be replaced, that can be costly as well. Low water pressure that is due to a failure of some sort or problem that requires specialized tools to fix is always going to be more costly.

Where low water pressure is due to a leaking pipe if the leak is not discovered immediately, it can result in significant home damage. A pipe that leaks over time can ruin flooring, drywall, ceilings, and belongings, not to mention lead to mold growth. This cause of low water pressure is often the costliest scenario because the plumbing fix is just one part of the solution, and the rest of the cleanup can cause the cost to add up quickly.

When you have low water pressure, call a local plumber to come take a look. Plumbers have diagnostic tools to determine what the problem is and where it is, as well as the expertise needed to fix the problem. Let a nearby plumbing company fix your water problems to restore decent water pressure in your home. Stop the annoyance of trying to shower or do the dishes without enough water – get your water pressure fixed today!
