Your plumbing pipes are concealed from view, which is quite a relief to anyone who does not want to think about where their wastewater goes after it drains. However, because the most intricate parts of our plumbing systems are concealed, some homeowners may neglect to schedule plumbing services that could really benefit their homes and pipes and give them a little peace of mind over the state of their plumbing.
Are your pipes protected from drain clogs? Are you concerned about a leak on your property? Call the plumbers at Tuckers Air Conditioning, Heating & Plumbing for plumbing repair and installation in Gaithersburg, MD, including some of these important services.
- Garbage Disposal Installation or Repair – Do you have a working garbage disposal in your kitchen sink? Many older homes do not, and although it may seem like you’re doing fine without one, you should seriously consider adding one on or scheduling repairs if yours is out of commission. Garbage disposals serve an important purpose for your pipes, protecting them from potential drain clogs and from the possibility that sewage will back up into your tubs and sinks. If you do not have one in your kitchen drain, you may be caught off-guard by sudden blockage far along in the pipes which will take a professional to remove.
- Repairing a Leaky Faucet – While a leaky faucet may not seem like such a big deal to you, your minor faucet leak may waste thousands of gallons of water a year. At the rate of one drip per second, a leaky faucet goes through almost 2,000 gallons of water in a year.
- Drain cleaning – Cleaning out the drains and sewer line helps to prevent clogs from occurring later on. When plumbers perform professional drain cleaning, they use tools and equipment that most homeowners do not have access to—tools that clean out the lining of the drainpipe instead of just removing clogs. Unlike the toxic drain cleaning chemicals found in hardware stores which can actually damage the pipes, professional tools are safe for the drains, safe for your health, and better for the environment.
