Benefits of Maintenance Visits

  • Home safety 
  • Prolong life of plumbing fixtures and piping 
  • Keep the system running efficiently 
  • Lower utility bills 
  • Save money on repairs 

One of the best things homeowners can do for their plumbing systems is to maintain their plumbing with annual maintenance checks by professionals. Home plumbing systems are a complicated network of fixtures, drains, and pipes connecting to the main water line and sewer. Any problem with the plumbing could affect the overall performance of the system.  

It is best to leave maintenance up to a professional for safety reasons, as the homeowner could injure themselves or the plumbing in the process if they do not know what they are doing. However, homeowners can do a few things to help maintain their plumbing. Examples of maintenance that homeowners can do themselves include keeping the plumbing fixtures clean, paying attention to warning signs of a leak, and inspecting the plumbing fixtures for signs of damage. 

Professional plumbers go through years of on-the-job training to obtain a certificate for working on plumbing systems. This gives them the expertise needed to complete maintenance safely, quickly diagnose problems with the plumbing system, and provide the homeowner with solutions. 

Improve Plumbing Safety

homeSome safety hazards can result from skipping out on plumbing maintenance. Plumbing leaks can lead to the growth of mold due to moisture. Mold has negative effects on human health, including respiratory problems and headaches. When the water from a leak reaches the home’s electrical wiring, it can be a huge safety hazard because of the risk of electrocution or fire. 

Another common plumbing hazard is a burst pipe. There are a few reasons why burst pipes occur, including clogged drains, an imbalance of water pressure, or frozen pipes. When a pipe bursts, it can send debris and water flying. Hidden plumbing leaks underground can wreak havoc on the home’s foundation. When the water from a burst pipe underground soaks into the soil around the foundation for a long time, it can soften to the point that the structural integrity of the building is compromised. Regular maintenance checks can prevent burst pipes and other hazards by catching the issues early and allowing the plumbing to run safely and smoothly. 

Improve the Longevity of the Plumbing System

One of the reasons it’s important to maintain the plumbing system is to protect the homeowner’s investment. No plumbing fixture lasts forever, but with regular maintenance checks, homeowners can be sure they are getting the most out of their plumbing system. 

Homeowners can extend the lifespan of plumbing fixtures by keeping up with a regular maintenance schedule. Plumbing maintenance can help catch issues early on before they worsen, allowing them to be fixed before a replacement or additional repairs are necessary.  

Save Money

Keeping the plumbing system running efficiently also helps to save the homeowner money on utility bills. A leaky pipe or faucet can be like money going down the drain. Some leaks can be difficult to find because the pipes are hidden under floorboards or in the walls, but plumbers can easily find any hidden leaks and repair them with leak detectors.
