5 Common Bathroom Plumbing Problems in Dehradun (and Fixes)
The 5 bathroom plumbing problems we fix most often in Dehradun homes — low pressure, leaks, smells, slow drains and tap drips.
1. Low shower pressure
Usually a clogged aerator or scaled-up CPVC line. Dehradun's hard water causes calcium scaling within 2–3 years — descaling restores 80% of flow instantly.
2. Persistent tap drip
9 of 10 cases are a perished washer or worn cartridge. Branded Jaquar/Cera replacements last 5+ years.
3. Bad smell from drain
Dry floor trap or biofilm in the P-trap. A high-pressure jetting clears it in one visit.
4. Slow draining
Hair + soap scum is the usual cause. Avoid acidic drain cleaners — they damage CPVC joints.
5. Wall seepage near shower
Almost always a leaking concealed elbow or missing waterproofing. We open a precise 6×6" patch — never break the whole wall.
