SPRING TIPS:

• Check outside spigots for any signs of winter freeze damage.  If your water pressure isn’t normal check for potential leaks in your house or crawl space.

• Spring is when the tree roots start to actively grow.  If your sewer line is continually clogging you should have your lines evaluated.

• If you have an ejector pump, please have a plumbing professional inspect it before heavy spring rains.

• Make sure your sump pump is operating correctly and have a battery back-up system installed for extra protection.

• Spring is a good time to ensure that all of your drains have strainers to prevent hair, soap and other debris from clogging your drains.
