Water Pressure Assessments

If your shower suddenly feels more like a trickle or your water pressure changes every time someone turns on another faucet, something may be going on with your plumbing system. R.A. Hoy provides water pressure assessments for homeowners throughout Kitty Hawk, Kill Devil Hills, Nags Head, and the surrounding Outer Banks. We’ll test your home’s water pressure and help figure out what’s actually causing the problem before recommending a repair. And low pressure isn’t the only thing worth paying attention to. Water pressure that’s too high can put unnecessary stress on your pipes, fixtures, water heater, and appliances over time. Whether your pressure feels too low, too high, or simply inconsistent, we’ll help get to the bottom of it.

FAQs

What's considered normal water pressure for a home?

Most homes are comfortable with water pressure somewhere between 40 and 60 psi. If your pressure is consistently below 40 psi, there may be something restricting water flow or another issue that needs attention. On the other hand, pressure above 80 psi can put unnecessary stress on your pipes, fixtures, and appliances. If you’re not sure where your home’s pressure falls, we can test it for you.

What typically causes low water pressure in an Outer Banks home?

There are a few possible causes, which is why testing the system first is important. Sometimes it’s something relatively simple, like a partially closed shutoff valve. Other times, sediment buildup in older galvanized pipes or a failing pressure regulator could be restricting the flow of water. If your home uses a well system, the well pump could also be part of the problem. We’ll help narrow it down so you’re not guessing at the fix.

Can high water pressure actually damage my plumbing?

Yes. More pressure isn’t always better when it comes to your plumbing. Consistently high water pressure can put extra stress on pipe joints, water heaters, fixtures, and appliance supply lines. Over time, that added strain can contribute to leaks and premature wear. If testing shows your water pressure is too high, a pressure-reducing valve may be a relatively straightforward way to bring it back into a safer range.
