Lubbock Homeowners: Avoid Costly Plumbing Emergencies This Spring with These Pro Tips

Plumbing Emergencies This Spring

Spring in Lubbock may be short, but it packs a punch—warmer temperatures, sudden storms, and a lot more demand on your home’s plumbing. At BTAC, we’ve spent decades helping families across the South Plains avoid surprise leaks, pipe bursts, and water heater failures at the worst possible times.

Spring is the season to get ahead of hidden plumbing issues before they become full-blown emergencies.

Top Spring Plumbing Problems in Lubbock Homes

As temperatures rise, your plumbing system starts working harder—longer showers, outdoor watering, and more use of sinks, toilets, and appliances. This extra pressure can expose problems that have built up over the winter. Common issues we see each spring include:

  • Cracked or weakened pipes that start to leak during temperature swings or heavy rainfall
  • Tree roots growing into older underground drain lines, leading to clogs or slow drains
  • Water heaters struggling to meet increased hot water demand
  • Gurgling drains and slow-moving sinks, often signs of buildup or early-stage blockages
  • Outdoor spigots or irrigation lines damaged during winter freezes

Catching these problems early with a professional plumbing inspection can save you hundreds in repairs later.

Getting Ready for Guests or Storm Season? This Is the Time to Act

Whether you’re hosting a graduation party, having family over for Memorial Day, or simply trying to get ahead of Lubbock’s unpredictable weather, May is the ideal month to schedule a plumbing check-up.

BTAC’s licensed plumbers perform thorough inspections of your entire plumbing system. We’ll check your water pressure, inspect key fixtures, test your water heater, and look for leaks or signs of wear. If something’s wrong, we’ll fix it quickly—before it becomes an expensive headache.
