Common Plumbing Problems in Bonita Springs
Bonita Springs’ coastal location, water conditions, and housing stock create some specific plumbing challenges. Here’s what we see most often:
💧 Hard Water & Mineral Buildup
Bonita Springs water has high mineral content that causes scale buildup on fixtures, shower doors, and inside pipes. This reduces water heater efficiency and can clog pipes over time. A water softener system is almost essential in Bonita Springs.
🏖️ Salt Air Corrosion
Bonita Springs’ proximity to the Gulf means salt air can accelerate corrosion on outdoor plumbing fixtures, hose bibs, and water heater components. Regular maintenance helps prevent premature failure of exposed plumbing elements.
🔴 Polybutylene Pipe Failures
Many Bonita Springs homes built between 1978-1995 have polybutylene (poly-b) pipes. These gray plastic pipes become brittle over time and can burst without warning. If your Bonita Springs home has poly-b pipes, consider proactive repiping before disaster strikes.
🌴 Root Intrusion
Bonita Springs’ beautiful landscaping includes many trees whose roots seek out water sources – including your sewer line. We regularly clear root intrusions and can recommend solutions to prevent recurring problems.
🏠 Condo & HOA Plumbing Issues
Bonita Springs has many condo communities and HOA neighborhoods. We’re experienced with the unique challenges of multi-unit buildings, including shared plumbing systems, access restrictions, and HOA requirements.
🏖️ Seasonal Home Plumbing
Many Bonita Springs homeowners are seasonal residents. Homes that sit vacant for months can develop issues like dried-out traps, stagnant water in pipes, and undetected slow leaks. We offer seasonal startup and shutdown services to protect your home year-round.
Bonita Springs Plumbing Tips
Protect your plumbing and save money with these tips from our experienced plumbers:
💡 Install a Water Softener
Bonita Springs’ water is very hard. A water softener protects your pipes, water heater, and appliances from scale buildup. It also makes your water feel better and keeps shower doors spot-free.
💡 Seasonal Home? Prep Your Plumbing
If you leave Bonita Springs for the summer, have your plumbing properly winterized (or summer-ized!). Turn off the main water, drain pipes, and consider having someone run water monthly to prevent issues.
💡 Flush Your Water Heater Annually
Bonita Springs’ hard water causes sediment to build up fast. Flushing your water heater once a year removes sediment, improves efficiency, and can add years to its lifespan.
💡 Know Your Main Shut-Off Valve
In a plumbing emergency, every second counts. Locate your main water shut-off valve NOW, before you need it. This is especially important in Bonita Springs condos where water damage can affect neighbors.
💡 Check for Poly-B Pipes
If your Bonita Springs home was built between 1978-1995, you may have polybutylene pipes. These gray plastic pipes are prone to sudden failure. We offer free inspections to check your pipe type.
💡 Protect Outdoor Fixtures
Salt air accelerates corrosion on outdoor plumbing. Rinse hose bibs and outdoor fixtures regularly, and consider covers for exposed pipes near the beach.
