How to Prevent Plumbing Disasters for Thanksgiving
Having a special time set aside at the end of every year to slow down and be thankful is incredibly healthy. All year long, people are beset with problems and forget to take a moment to be optimistic. The holiday season is the perfect time to make up for lost opportunities to be thankful.
But, it is also the perfect time of year for plumbing problems to be particularly pesky. Nothing should interrupt the quiet reflection or the time spent with families during this season. Take some advice from this local clogged drain service and stay protected from holiday plumbing problems.
Prevent Problems Arising from Clogged Toilets
During the holidays, nearly everyone will go somewhere to visit friends and family. Those who host guests for holiday get-togethers need to be aware of the extra traffic that will take place in the bathroom. One of the things that can ruin a holiday party faster than overcooking a turkey is a clogged toilet.
Party hosts should take extra precautions to prevent an emergency clogged toilet repair from ruining a party. If a toilet has shown signs that it is likely to get clogged, like previous clogs or slow flushing, one could replace the toilet in advance of the holidays with professional toilet installation.
Blocked Sewer Lines Can Ruin Dinner
A common problem that contributes to clogged toilets has to do with a clogged sewer line. Clogged sewer lines are more serious than a clogged toilet because a clogged sewer line has the potential to allow sinks and tubs to back up as well. Luckily, one can take preventative measures.
Clogged sewer lines can result from numerous factors that could need fairly invasive sewer line repairs. One of the main culprits of sewer line problems is old piping, the victim of tree root invasion. If roots cause frequent sewer clogs, it may be time to consider replacing the line with modern plastic materials or rerouting it away from trees.
Schedule Routine Maintenance and Focus on the Meaning of the Holiday
Sewer line repairs don’t always have to be a huge repair that involves new plumbing and digging up the yard. Sewer line repair is often as easy as scheduling a hydro-jetting visit from a local plumber. Along with drain cleaning, hydro-jetting can leave drainage piping as clean on the inside as the day it was installed. This ensures that no problems will happen during the Thanksgiving season when drains and sewers see more usage than usual.
Hydro-jetting is a process where a plumber washes the inside of sewer lines with high-pressure water. The pressure coming from the hydro-jet is powerful enough to remove grime from the inside of pipe walls and cut through tree roots. One hydro-jetting visit can remove decades of buildup that is contributing to clogs in the sewer and drain system of a home.
