Know the exact locatio

n where the shut-off valves are.

When plumbing problems arise and water is leaking or showering uncontrollably, the easiest solution is to turn off the water. There are many valves in your home that are under sinks, in walls and when in doubt, there is a main water valve near the water meter. These valves are usually gate valves were a handle turns of the flow, or a spigot were they twist downward to stop the flow. By shutting off the water flow to damaged faucets will prevent further water damage to your home or office before we arrive. Having this knowledge of where the valve points are will save you time, money and prevent further water damage to your home or office.

Keep drainage areas clear and clean

Most plumbing problems occur when something bigger that the pipe somehow gets clogged in the drain. The problem starts when someone else is using the water without knowing there is an object or food lodged in the pipe. The water pressure will either break the pipe or sent that object into a T connector, jamming the entire plumbing drainage system. By keeping items and objects away from sinks, drains and shelves atop plumbing fixtures will eliminate any pipe blockage.

Maintain your pipes!

By keeping an eye on your plumbing fixtures, pipes and drains to make sure they are working as normal without leaks, clogs or moisture under cabinets or floors, you can prevent emergency plumbing problems from occurring in your home. Scheduling a monthly or quarterly examination on all plumbing fixtures, pipes and drainage will keep those unwanted plumbing emergencies away as well as keeping your home from getting water damaged.
