How can I prevent clogged drains?

Clogged drains may be prevented if you remember to treat your drains with care. You should be aware of the items that you can safely place in a drain and those that a drain cannot handle. Food, grease and coffee grounds are a few examples of items that you should not put into a drain. These items should be placed directly in the trash.

When you are using a food disposal, you should make sure that cold water is running. Also, you should be aware of which food items cannot be placed in a food disposal. Items like potato skins, pasta, oil, fat, egg shells, rice, fruit pits, coffee grounds and bones. These items have a tendency to become lodged in a garbage disposal and can be very difficult to remove. If you do get one of these items stuck, our professionals can make a visit to your home to remove them and get your food disposal back to working order.

You can also use screen covers for the drains in your bathrooms. Screen covers can prevent hair, toothpaste, makeup fluids and other heavy materials from accumulating in a drain. These items can clog your drain and cause problems.

How can I detect a water leak?

If you have pipeline issues and are experiencing a water leak, the issue can cause your water bill to skyrocket. Detecting a water leak can help you take immediate action in calling a professional for assistance.

First, you should check the pressure relief valve on a water tank. If you hear a hissing sound, you may have a water leak. If you hear any hissing sounds coming from a tank on the toilet, you also could have a water leak.

You should check the meter line and the house bibs located throughout your home. If you notice any water on the ground or in your home, then you may have a water leak. Any hissing sounds coming from house bibs indicates a water leak.
