Outdoor Water Faucet Services Oakville

Spring & Summer is the time of year where everyone is heading to their backyards for all kinds of relaxation and fun. But first a little bit of tending to your yard needs to happen, specifically the turning on of your outdoor water taps.

Outdoor water faucets are called a few things from taps to hose bibs to spigots to that thingy outside. The names all refer to the metal tap sticking out of the wall of your home (and sometimes there’s one in the garage as well!).

Opening Up Outdoor Water Faucets

Is Your Water Off?

Much as you want to turn the water on here, you need to make sure your outdoor water taps are off to begin with. Go to any and all outdoor taps and turn the knob as far as you can to the right, ensuring it is off before you go any further.

Turn The Water On Inside

Head to your basement and find your main water valve. That valve isn’t only the point of entry for all water to enter your home. It’s also connected to all secondary pipes that direct water to the various taps on your property including the outdoors. Find the pipes that are attached to your outside taps and turn them on/to the left.

Back Outside

Now it’s time to turn on your outdoor water taps; go back outside and turn the knobs to the left.

Pressure Check Your Outdoor Water

If you have been successful so far but notice that you aren’t getting a lot of water pressure outside, chances are you may have sprung a leak somewhere over the winter months. If that’s the case, turn the outdoor water off and go look around at the pipes leading from your basement. You may find water dripping along the way – there’s your leak!

Contact John THE Plumber

The possibility does exist that something else is amiss if you can’t find a leak yet your pressure remains low. Should that be the case it is now prudent that you call in a professional. Plumbing situations should always be seen to sooner than later. Waiting opens you up to bigger problems and higher expenses. If that’s the case give our office a call today. One of our knowledgeable office representatives will work with you to see if they can aid in trouble shooting over the phone.
