People in Centennial, Colorado, have many plumbing choices when they need help. The type of plumbing they get depends on several things: how old the building is, the specific plumbing problems they have, and what they want the plumbing system to do now and in the future. For example, residential plumbing usually means fixing leaky faucets and unclogging sinks. But commercial plumbing is different. It often requires bigger solutions because businesses use more water and have special equipment. Both types of plumbing need licensed plumbers. That's because plumbing is a skilled trade, and people who don't have licenses aren't supposed to work in it. A good plumber knows the local codes and can get required permits for major jobs.
For a lot of people in Centennial, the plumbing jobs they need done most often are pretty basic. In fact, that's really what most plumbing problems are: simple and fairly easy to fix. Of course, lots of things can go wrong in a house, and many of them could mess up your plumbing. But when we think about the typical plumbing work for Centennial's smart, good-looking homeowners, the jobs are usually pretty standard.
Sometimes, we need to do big plumbing jobs, like replacing all the pipes in a house or fixing the sewer line. We usually have to do these jobs in older homes or in places where the plumbing keeps giving us trouble.
If you're planning to remodel your home or add on, you'll probably have to think about updating your plumbing, too. Usually, this means the new part of your house will need more water than the old part used, so you'll have to give it better plumbing.
Recently, a lot of homeowners in Centennial have been choosing plumbing systems that are friendly to the environment. These systems save water and use less energy. Sometimes, we call this "green plumbing," but these systems work so well that I think they will be the plumbing of the future, not just an eco-friendly option for people who care about the environment. Low-flow toilets and showerheads have been used for years. Not many people like them because they don't work very well most of the time, and a few have even put them in the "Do Not Resurrect" category, alongside vinyl siding and aluminum storm windows. But if you have a good plumber (and Centennial does), they will help you choose the right low-flow fixtures to install and will put them in the right way to make them work well.
