Is Preventative Plumbing Maintenance Really Necessary?
Many people never consider the option of preventative maintenance for their plumbing systems, instead preferring to wait until something goes seriously wrong that requires them to call their local Memphis plumbers for repair or, in severe cases, replacement. But the truth is that investing in regular preventative plumbing maintenance, such as drain cleaning and plumbing inspections, can actually save you money and a lot of stress over time.
No one wants to struggle with slow, clogged drains that are getting increasingly worse over time or deal with a major catastrophe like a broken down water heater, and preventative maintenance gives you the peace of mind that those types of problems are not on the horizon. Routine maintenance gives your Memphis plumbers the opportunity to check out your system and notice potential problems, then correct them before they have a chance to cause inconvenience or disruption to your household.
Preventative maintenance also goes a long way toward keeping your plumbing system in excellent shape so you can avoid the need for pipe replacements and other major projects for longer, and who doesn't want that? Finally, it's worth noting that if and when you decide to put your house up for sale on the real estate market, a history of preventative plumbing maintenance can help there, too. Being able to produce a record of regular maintenance appointments with qualified plumbers in Memphis, along with other evidence like a video sewer inspection, will help convince prospective home buyers that your property is in excellent shape and they won't be dealing with a plumbing disaster any time soon.
Can Memphis Plumbers Help Reduce My Utility Costs With Plumbing Repairs?
There's no doubt that our experienced Memphis plumbers can make your plumbing system run more efficiently overall, but how much difference you notice on your utility bills depends on the current condition of your system and the types of components you have installed. Suppose you have an aged system with a few components reaching the end of their serviceable life, and your water and energy charges are increasing on your monthly bills. In that case, we can likely make a significant difference in how much you have to pay for utilities.
Many people don't realize that even something like repairing a leaky faucet or toilet that never stops running can make a noticeable difference in your water bill. Those problems may not seem like a big deal—sure, the sound of running or dripping water is annoying, but at least the leak is contained inside the fixture. But that fixture can actually use thousands of gallons of water over the course of a year, which, of course, you have to pay for. It's basically no different from flushing money down the drain.
Your plumbing system doesn't just use water. Some components also require a fuel source such as electricity, oil or natural gas, and if they're not functioning properly, they're not maintaining the energy efficiency of your house. Your hot water heater is a good example. Conventional, tank-style water heaters use a lot of fuel because they are constantly heating that big tank full of water, so hot water is available whenever you twist the tap. But over time, parts of the water heater suffer wear and tear damage or become clogged with sediment, and the unit needs more and more fuel to provide the same amount of hot water. Manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to improve the energy efficiency of their products, so replacing an old, damaged unit with a new, energy efficient model can make a huge difference in energy costs. You could save even more by having your Memphis plumbers swap a tank-style unit for a tankless water heater installation, which heats water on demand when you turn on the tap and saves a huge amount of energy by not constantly heating a tank.
Do You Have to Dig a Huge Trench to Complete Sewer Line Repair?
In the past, when it was necessary to work on a buried sewer line, it was also necessary to dig up the line, which is a time-consuming, laborious and destructive process. Fortunately, that's often not the case nowadays because our Memphis plumbers have trenchless technology, such as pipe relining, that is non-invasive, fast and highly effective. Pipe relining involves inserting a "sleeve" saturated with epoxy resin into a damaged line and inflating a tub inside it to push it against the walls of the existing pipe. Once it has cured in place, the inflatable tube is removed, leaving behind a solid resin lining in the pipe that is watertight and resistant to damaging elements such as tree roots.
What Are the Signs That Drain Cleaning is Necessary?
Ignoring or missing the signs that your drains are clogged can result in severe plumbing problems such as overflowing toilets, burst pipes, and water damage.
Schedule professional drain cleaning with our Memphis plumbers if you experience:
- Clogged or slow drains
- Foul drain odors
- Bubbling or gurgling drains
- Water coming up your drains
- Frequently overflowing toilet
- Difficulty flushing the toilet
- Drain flies
- High water bills
- Standing water
