Do’s and Dont’s of Plumbing

Make sure you are scraping your plates into your compost or your garbage can.  Rice can be a big issue for disposals and sinks. The rice falls tot he bottom of the p-trap then sits and causes quite a sink clog. If you find yourself in this spot, usually a quick removal  and clean out of your p-trap will solve the issue. Give us a call and we can walk you through it!

You should never flush wipes, whether they say they’re disposable on the label or not. Flushable wipes do not break down like toilet paper, they are made of woven fibers that cause them to get caught up in your pipe resulting in clogs and major plumbing issues. A plumber could end up spending hours plunging a snake into your lines over and over again to effectively remove the blockage. And when you’re paying by the hour, labor can add up quickly.
