To prevent plumbing problems from happening, there are few minor steps you can take that will have a big impact on the plumbing system in your home:
Keep an eye out for leaks on a regular basis - Inspect under sinks, faucets, water heaters and shower heads often to make sure there are no leaks or signs of extra water. Early leak detection can help you save a lot of money and hassle down the line.
Keep things out of your kitchen sink - Make sure not to dump grease down the drain as grease is sure to build up and clog your drain later on. Also, even if you have a garbage disposal, try to put almost all food waste in the compost bin or trash. This will help avoid buildup in the drain pipes.
Keep your sewer line cleaned - You may want to consider regularly having your main sewer line snaked or hydro-jetted in order to prevent any buildup and potential clogging.
