(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 04, 2013 ) Memphis, TN – Greenway Home Services knows that saving money by doing simple plumbing repair projects can be achieved by the novice handyman. Not all plumbing issues require a service call by a professional company. Greenway provides excellent customer service by offering their customers some basic plumbing tips:
• Purchase a plumbing auger.
If the young ones are prone to throwing toys and other objects into the toilet and one is concerned about major toilet clogs that are just too much to handle with a plunger, they should consider purchasing a closet auger. For less than 40 dollars one will have a tool that can clear up even the toughest problems without needing to call a plumber.
• Shut off main system when leaving for a while.
Make sure to shut off the main system before leaving the house for a few weeks. The water will stay in the pipes, but this should prevent any further damages in case a leak starts while you are away. One should check that the shut-off valve is working properly before they leave.
• For bad pressure in the shower.
If one has bad water pressure in the shower, the shower head might be clogged. Take a plastic baggie, fill it with regular vinegar, and tie it to the shower head so that the shower head is covered. Leave it overnight. In the morning, take the baggie off and use a small toothbrush to scrub away any mineral deposits.
• Regular maintenance of your plumbing lines is a great idea.
Maintaining oneÂ’s plumbing is easy. OneÂ’s options are getting the lines snaked or jetted. Jetted is a technology that is proven more effective than snaking. It gets deeper and cleans harder. performed on your lines. Call the plumbing experts at Greenway Home Appliances at 901-252-0460 or visit http://www.plumbingrepairmemphis.org/
• Tips for Plunging.
When plunging a drain to attempt to remove a blockage, first make sure that the drain is completely covered in water. This helps to form a seal. Then, plunge at least fifteen to twenty times before stopping. Repeat the process two to three times. If this doesn't work, try a chemical drain cleaner.
• Coat your sinks with expanding foam to deaden sounds.
If the kitchen contains to sinks side by side, sounds will resonate strongly between them and create vibrations. This is not good for the pipes. The expanding foam will reduce the vibrations and protect the pipes. It might be easier to apply foam before the sink is installed. Call the Appliance Repair Professionals at Greenway for more information.
• Know what can go down the drain.
Certain things shouldn't go into oneÂ’s plumbing system. By knowing what one can and cannot flush or throw into the garbage disposal and sink, one can save their selves from a costly repair or disaster. A plumber can usually get your plumbing back into working condition, but can be avoided if you know how to dispose of items correctly.
• Make sure pipes are insulated.
Cold weather can cause expensive plumbing repairs if your pipes freeze. This problem is easily avoided. First, you need to check your outside pipe to make sure it has the proper insulation. When the temperature dips, you should also make sure your garden hoses are disconnected and that your exterior faucet is shut off. You can avoid future plumbing repairs by doing this, and therefore, saving you a lot of money.
• Make sure any plumber that you hire can handle the type of job you have.
There are many aspects to plumbing and many contractors can do almost all of them, but some are better suited to doing work involved in specific areas. If need a plumber for your septic system, get one that specializes in septic systems, etc. Visit http://www.plumbingrepairmemphis.org. or call Greenway Home Services at 901-252-0460 for experts on all plumbing repair issues
