We may bring our hoses in for the winter, drag them back out in the spring, and even check them for leaks and cracks. It is the normal thing to do. But not many of us think about our outdoor hose spigot when it comes to maintenance projects. You use that spigot to hook up your hose to wash your car, water your garden, or clean the patio. It is always there, doing its job. Is it doing it properly is the question to ask? At A-List Plumbing, we provide outdoor water hosebib repair and replacement service in Edmonds.
What is a Hosebib?
That is the fancy term for your outdoor water faucet. You can use it with a hose attached or without. It allows you access to water while outside of your hose and is a convenient thing to have around.
Why Should I Be Worried About It?
During the warmer months, you use it often, and there may not be any problems. But some things can impact your hosebib and cause damage. When the weather turns cooler, you should disconnect the hose pipe from the spigot. When water freezes, it expands and can cause pipes to burst. If there is any water at all in the hosebib, it can damage it in colder months. If it is damaged, water can leak, and you end up losing gallons of water daily. Obviously, this can raise your water bill.

My water heater had developed a slow leak and I called A-List to come check it out. By the time they got here, next day, it had stopped leaking. The service technician advised I just keep an eye on it. It may have been caused by setting it to vacation mode while we were gone for a few weeks. No charge for the service call. I would highly recommend them based on their honesty.
