Clogged drains are a common problem.

More Winter Plumbing Tips

If you have outdoor spigots or faucets, they will freeze in our cold temperatures that we're having. Here a two valuable tips from VIP Property Management, a licensed plumber.

1. Is your garden hose still attached to the spigot? Remove that garden hose before it starts to freeze.
2. Do you already have isolation valves installed in your crawl space or in your basement? If you don't, then call us at 770-906-2838. Once these valves are installed, the water to the hose bib will be able to be shut off from the inside.
   

If you need tips on how to keep your pipes from freezing and how to save money on septic tank treatment, just go to our previous blog. If your pipes are already frozen, don't hesitate to call us. We don't let a little snow scare us; go on and give us a call.

Winter plumbing tips
Here are two winter plumbing tips that should save you possibly up to thousands of dollars during the winter months:

1. To prevent pipes from freezing under your kitchen sink, open the cabinet door under the kitchen sink all the way. The warm air should keep the pipes from freezing. If your pipes are frozen already, call us immediately at 770-906-2838.
   
2. Get your septic tank treated and pumped out before winter comes. That way, you won't pay more money to have a plumber dig through your snow covered or frozen ground if your sewer backs up. As a licensed plumber we can check the sewer level for you.
