Dr. Styles Master Plumber has built his own small plumbing company in Glasgow and has been servicing several people there already. Part of improving his company is partnering with well known and established ones. One of the recent projects they had was how to respond immediately to a plumbing emergency.
A plumbing emergency is usually very frustrating for a household since it can really be problematic and the water may damage the house. For people to understand better, we will be elaborating the different plumbing emergencies, most common.
- Leaky Faucets – this can really be disturbing if not fixed right away. It will really be very hard to sleep if you keep on hearing the drops of water from the faucet.
- Clogged Sinks – this usually starts with slow draining, meaning there are a lot of food wastes in it that shouldn’t be there. That is why it is always smart to segragate your food waste. It should not go the sink when it should not.
- Clogged Toilets – same as the sink, you should not be putting anything in the toilet bowl like tissue, soap, sanitary pads or anything that may clog it.
- Heater problems – either there is no water or it is also leaky. This will really mess up your daily activities since you are going to take a shower everyday and this will be the cause of why you will run late to your work.
- Burst pipes – this usually happens during cold season or even the rainy season. This mainly happens to old pipes or pipes that are not made of a quality material
- Clogged garbage disposal – this is often due to improper garbage disposal. Every family should maintain a proper garbage disposal. It is beneficial to learn about segragation and even composting.
- Damaged Sewer system – aside from this being very costly, it can really be damaging to your family’s health and safety
These plumbing emergencies are very easy to identify and once you experience any of this you should call a Plumber right away. The Plumber will be the one to fix any issues you may have, any of whic was mentioned above. Once the Plumber arrives, to easily help him understand the depth of the problem, you can share the possible causes and how long it has been happening and other relevant information to determine the root cause of the problem. The plumbing work may take a short or a long period of time depending on the damage. It may be fast if it is just a simple one or it may take days to fix it. Another thing to consider is the cost. You should also be ready with the cost because some problems may cost more especially the scenario of a damaged sewer system but for some, you will just have to buy new pipes. You should also be prepared to render time since you may have to stay at home to watch everything.
