2 Tips to Prevent Water Leaks

1. Install a water softener. Do you have hard water in your house? Hard water can leave deposits of calcium and magnesium on your pipes, which can cause corrosion and lead to a leaking pipe. Reach out to 1-800-Plumber and we’ll assess your home’s water and recommend a water softening system that best suits your needs.

2. Make sure your drains are clear. You can avoid clogs – which can cause leaks – by avoiding putting certain food items down the drain. It's not a good idea to dispose of eggshells, coffee grounds, seeds, grease, and oil this way. You also need to avoid disposing of household items, including lint, paint, and kitty litter (even if the package says it is flushable) Please avoid using commercial-grade drain cleaners. These types of cleaners are too harsh for home plumbing systems and can eat right through your pipes, no matter what types of pipes you have in your home.
