Yikes! This is How Your Grease Drain Looks Like If You Don’t Fix It | by Sarah Lavinski | DIY ...

A lot of people say, “it’s okay if you use hot water.” Don’t let them fool you. After a while the grease collects in your drains and gets into the sewer lines which doesn’t just create a kitchen clog, but it can create a clog throughout your home. If this does happen, the best thing to do is pay your local plumber to come out and clear the line. If it doesn’t get resolved damage can be caused in your sewer lines which can create a larger problem.

Our best advice to dispose grease is:

Let the grease dry and dispose into a container or throw away. If there is excess grease still on the pan, you can use a paper towel to scrape it off and throw away.

What is Hydro Jetting?

Hydro Jetting is a plumbing solution that is noninvasive and clears pipes by effectively removing blockages. Clogged drains can sometimes take a lot of work to clear and sometimes even require excavation but using this Jetter can help solves those complicated clogs with this solution.

We strongly recommend using this equipment before the winter to make sure your drains are clear and flowing. When it’s sweater weather.. it’s time for the Jetter!

Our Hydro Jetter can clear your drains and pipes of several things:

Grease
Roots
Scum
Mineral Deposits
Food Waste
Debris

There are many benefits to using the Hydro Jetter. While using a snake to unclog your drains works for most clogs, however, it doesn’t clear everything. The Hydro Jetter’s most importance is how effective it is. It completely clears your drains, and you can even use it on a Culvert.

Are you concerned about the environment? The only things necessary to use the Jetter is a power outlet and water which means it’s eco-friendly! You don’t need to put all the chemicals down your drain if you choose to get the Hydro Jetter service!

Back To School Plumbing Tips

Taylor Fixtures, Plumbing Tips and Advice, Service Calls, Site updates back to school, back to school plumbing tips, laundry tips, plumbing tips, shower advise

Now that school is back in session, the mornings can become hectic. In a school aged home with working adults, the competition to use the restroom can get a little crazy. During this adjustment of getting back into the school routine, we have some plumbing tips for you!

Shower Times:

Staggering shower times can be helpful in reserving hot water. The last thing you want is to hop in the shower and the water be cold. Assigning morning and night shower times can help prevent you from running out of hot water.

Tub/Shower Drains:

Speaking of increased showers / baths – the drains are also more likely to get clogged with soap and scum as well as hair. If you notice your shower/tub drain is draining slower than normal. Give us a call and we would be happy to get the drains clear and flowing for best results.

Laundry:

With kids back in school, you already know that you’ll at least have an extra load of laundry per week! Routine maintenance on your laundry machines is always a great idea. Some helpful tips would be to always clean the lint trap in the dryer and checking the hoses for any cracks and confirming connections. The laundry hoses should be replaced every couple of years to ensure proper operations. Laundry drains also can get clogged with soap and debris and using an auger would be the best way to clear those drains.
