• Smell gas? Get everyone out first, then call your gas company or 911 from outside.
• Take photos. They help with insurance and show the plumber what happened.

Common Plumbing Problems in Perris

Heat, hard water and shifting clay soil do most of the damage here. Half of the homes in Perris were built before about 1999. Newer homes tend to have copper or PEX with plastic drains, so calls here are more often about water heaters, fixtures and pinhole leaks than about worn-out pipe.

• Expansive clay soils move with the seasons, which stresses slab plumbing and buried water lines.
• Summer heat and hard water wear out water heaters and irrigation valves ahead of schedule.
• Copper in many tract homes from recent decades develops pinhole leaks once it reaches middle age.
