Water Pressure Repair for Dover Homes

Hunt Plumbing And Heating INC provides water pressure repair for homes and businesses in Dover, MA. Weak showers, slow-filling tubs or pipes that bang when you turn off the tap all point to a water pressure problem. We find the cause and fix it.

Dover's water: Mostly private wells (about two-thirds of households); the rest are served by small public water suppliers such as the Colonial Water Company, all drawing on local aquifers. Homes on private wells get their pressure from a well pump and pressure tank, so we check the tank and pressure switch as well as the plumbing.

We serve ZIP code 02030 and every community within 25 km of Dover, and our nearest neighboring service areas for water pressure repair include Needham, Wellesley and Medfield.

    Dover's housing is comparatively newer — the median home was built in 1970, and only 10% predate 1940. We rule out fixture, valve, regulator and piping causes before recommending a fix.

Good to know about water pressure repair

  • EPA notes a faucet dripping once per second can waste more than 3,000 gallons per year, so drips caused by pressure problems are worth fixing promptly.

    epa.gov
  • According to the Acton Water District, Massachusetts plumbing codes require pressure-reducing valves to be installed on new or remodeled residential plumbing where water pressure exceeds 80 psi; the District itself cannot alleviate high pressure, so homeowners should have a licensed plumber assess it.

  • The Acton (MA) Water District notes that homes at a geographically low point or near a water pumping station may experience pressure higher than 80 psi, and that sustained pressure above 80 psi can damage on-site plumbing systems and may affect fixtures.
