Top Tips For Keeping Your Home’s Plumbing In Tip-Top Shape


Posted in: Plumbing Repair

As a homeowner, it’s important to have a team of professional plumbers you trust to spring into action in the event of a plumbing repair emergency. It’s not a matter of if you’ll need to address repair issues; it’s a matter of when.

Plumbing repairs are one of those things that every homeowner faces at some point, but what if you could help avoid a lot of them? At H&H Plumbing Inc., we like to educate our customers so they can take good care of their plumbing and avoid seeing us on a frequent basis.

Preventive Care For Your Residential Plumbing

Any established plumber could tell you some stories about the problems they’ve encountered and the surprising mishaps homeowners have gone through. The goal is to avoid issues like kids’ toys in the toilet or inappropriate debris in the garbage disposal. Learn to care for your plumbing so it can take good care of you!

Avoid grease in the drains – It’s a known rule, yet homeowners always break it. They let “just a little” slip by, but this adds up over time and collects in your pipes wreaking havoc on your plumbing.

Use body wash – Bar soaps break off in chunks and leave soap scum that collects in your drains and pipes. Body wash is much less destructive to your home plumbing system.

Don’t throw trash in your commode or garbage disposal – the only thing that should be flushed down your toilet is the waste it’s intended for and toilet paper. Nothing else! And your garbage disposal can handle a lot of things, but not all the things homeowners put in there. There’s a checklist of things to avoid that include pasta, bones, eggshells, coffee grounds, and more.
