Harrisburg in southern Cabarrus County grew quickly from a small crossroads into a town of subdivisions. Many homes were built from the 1990s on, with plastic drains and PEX or CPVC water lines. Those homes now reach the age when the first water heater wears out and fixture parts start to fail.
Newer homes also have their own common issues. Builder-grade faucets and toilet parts tend to wear faster than better parts. A water heater in a garage or attic should have a drain pan, and a leak there can go unseen.

A standard tank water heater often lasts around 8 to 12 years, depending on water quality and use. Many Harrisburg homes are at or past that age with their original unit. Rust-colored water, rumbling noises or water around the base are signs to have it checked.
If a faucet drips again soon after a repair, or a toilet keeps running, a better-quality replacement can save repeat repairs. Not every fixture needs replacing. We look at what failed, tell you whether a repair will last, and leave the choice to you.
Check that it sits in a drain pan with a line that carries water away. Look for rust, moisture or stains on the ceiling below. An attic leak can soak insulation and drywall before you notice. If the unit is aging, plan its replacement before it fails.
