Most Frequently Asked Questions About Plumbing This Year

To get this year started off right, homeowners should look at how they can improve the function of their plumbing systems. Plumbing gets used every day for tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and bathing. It is easy to forget the comfort and convenience that modern plumbing brings until the system breaks down.

To prevent unnecessary plumbing repairs this year, homeowners should be sure to keep up with a plumbing maintenance plan and trust a professional plumber with repairs and maintenance. Avoiding common mistakes such as flushing non-flushable items, leaving plumbing fixtures in a state of disrepair, or attempting DIY plumbing installations can go a long way in saving homeowners money on their plumbing services this year.

What Common Plumbing Problems Should Homeowners Avoid?

Using hair traps in the bathroom and food traps in the kitchen sink helps prevent debris from clogging the drain. Ice and tree roots are also common culprits for clogging up plumbing systems. Homeowners who neglect to prevent clogged drains may find themselves calling the plumber for the burst pipe repair, which can be a far more expensive and troublesome repair. Burst pipes can cause water damage, accidental electrocution, and more hazards for homeowners.

Clogged drain repair should be left up to a professional plumber if a plunger will not do the trick to remove the clog. Homeowners should avoid liquid drain cleaning products as they are ineffective, and the toxic chemicals they contain pose health risks such as skin irritation and respiratory failure.

Toilet repair is another common problem that plumbers deal with. Constantly running toilets can quickly increase utility bills as they waste water and energy. Most toilets use a system of valves and other small components to run. Replacing parts on the toilet, such as the valves, as they wear out from use helps prevent a small problem from turning into a big one.

How To Know When It’s Time To Call a Professional Plumber?

Plumbers are trained in gas leak detection and repair, which can be very dangerous. Sewer line repair and water line leak repair are two tasks that need to be left up to a highly trained professional plumber.

DIY plumbing repairs and installations are not recommended, but DIY can be especially hazardous when it comes to a gas leak or water leak. Homeowners can solve some clogged drains at home with a plunger, but for serious repairs, it is best to trust a local plumbing company to get the job done right.

How Can Homeowners Prevent Plumbing Emergencies?

  • Do maintenance on time.
  • Do not attempt DIY plumbing.
  • Have a trusted local plumber on standby.
  • Schedule maintenance in advance.
  • Use drain guards to prevent clogs.

Keeping up with plumbing maintenance and cleaning can help to prevent plumbing emergencies this year. Homeowners may want to consider scheduling plumbing service from a local plumbing company through a maintenance plan. This helps to take the hassle out of keeping up with the maintenance schedule.

During maintenance appointments, the plumber will be able to fix small problems before they get out of control. Replacing broken or outdated parts in the plumbing system can improve the system's longevity and prevent accidents.
