Avoiding Common Plumbing Mistakes Helps Avert Disasters

Want to prevent plumbing disasters? Follow these simple steps from our master plumber, Ken,  and avoid making some of the most common mistakes that lead to plumbing disasters:

• Avoid hair in drains, and clean the hair strainer frequently to keep your drains
unblocked

• Do not flush diapers, baby wipes or any other non-biodegradable items down the
toilet

• Avoid food scraps from being washed down the sink drain, and do not pour oil or fats
in the drain either (they solidify eventually)

• Avoid planting vegetation or trees near your sewer, this will prevent roots from
entering your line and causing a sewage back-up
