Bella Vista homeowners understand firsthand the difference between a simple plumbing repair and costly water damage. At JoCo Plumbing, we’ve been the top choice for a professional Bella Vista, Arkansas plumbing company for several years.
Our team has recently tackled several plumbing projects that demonstrate common problems for Bella Vista residents.
These real-world examples, all completed in 2025, showcase our first-hand experience and expertise with various issues that arise, along with our professional solutions that keep homes running smoothly.
1) Leaking Tub and Shower Valve Replacement
Completed: July 30, 2025
One of our most common service calls involves failing shower valves, and this Bella Vista home was experiencing the classic symptoms.
The homeowner reported a persistent leak in their combination tub and shower valve that was not only wasting water but also making it difficult to control water pressure and temperature.
Our team removed the old, deteriorating valve and installed a new, high-efficiency replacement that restored full functionality to the bathroom.
The new valve provides better pressure control, eliminates the wasteful leak, and ensures reliable operation for years to come.
This type of valve failure is prevalent in Bella Vista’s aging housing stock, where original fixtures installed decades ago are reaching the end of their useful life.
2) Cracked Toilet Replacement
Completed: July 25, 2025
A cracked toilet base might seem like a minor cosmetic issue, but it can quickly escalate into a serious problem.
This Bella Vista homeowner discovered visible cracks in their toilet that were causing water to leak at the base, creating potential for significant water damage to the bathroom subfloor.
Rather than attempting a temporary patch, we recommended complete toilet replacement with a modern, water-efficient model.
The new toilet not only eliminates the leak risk but also helps reduce the homeowner’s monthly water bill through improved efficiency.
This project prevented what could have become extensive water damage to the home’s structure while providing the homeowner with a more reliable and efficient fixture.
3) Cast Iron P-Trap and Tub Drain Replacement
Completed: July 30, 2025
Crawlspace plumbing issues often go unnoticed until they become serious problems.
In this case, we discovered that the home’s cast-iron p-trap and tub drain had corroded significantly and were leaking beneath the house.
Our team carefully removed the deteriorating cast iron components and replaced them with modern PVC piping.
PVC offers several advantages over cast iron, including resistance to corrosion and reduced likelihood of clogs due to its smooth interior surface.
This upgrade addresses the immediate leak issue while providing a long-term solution that should serve the homeowner for decades without the corrosion problems that plague older cast iron systems.
4) Full Crawlspace Plumbing System Upgrade
Completed: July 28, 2025
Sometimes, a comprehensive approach is the most cost-effective solution.
This Bella Vista home had an entire cast-iron plumbing system under the crawlspace that had aged well beyond its recommended lifespan, with multiple failure points throughout the system.
Rather than continuing to patch individual problems as they arose, we worked with the homeowner to completely replace all cast iron components with new PVC piping.
This modernization project involved careful planning and execution to minimize disruption to the home while ensuring all new connections met current codes and standards.
The complete system upgrade provides the homeowner with peace of mind, eliminating the ongoing worry about which section of old piping might fail next.
It’s an investment that will prevent numerous future service calls and potential water damage incidents.
