Water and homes

Eastern Goochland has a mix of water sources. Some neighbourhoods are on public water, while many larger properties are on private wells. Homes here tend to have more fixtures than average: several bathrooms, kitchen islands with prep sinks, and outdoor spigots around the property.

The local problem, and the fix

In larger homes, a common call is a set of faucets all reaching the same age at once: cartridges stiffening, finishes wearing and handles loosening across several bathrooms. Some owners repair the ones that are sound and replace the rest to match. Faucet replacement and installation covers what's involved, and shower and tub faucet repair covers valves that won't hold temperature.

Bigger homes, more places to leak

More bathrooms and more fixtures mean more cartridges, supply lines and valves, and more cabinets where a slow leak can go unnoticed. Guest bathrooms and basement bars that are rarely used are a common source: a supply line or valve fails, and nobody opens that cabinet for weeks.

A quick check every few months, opening each sink cabinet and running each fixture for a minute, catches most of these early. If you're on a well, a leak anywhere in a large house also shows up as the pump running more than it should.
