Thanksgiving Causes 50% Surge in Plumbing Calls!

Thanksgiving isn't just for stuffing our belly but also clogging our drains! In a new report, Plumbing service calls increase on Thanksgiving Day by nearly 50% over the week. This backup has mostly to do with grease, leftovers and peels that go along with cooking large family meals.

Here's your top tips to keep things running smoothly:
  • Never pour oil or fats down your drain, this will clog your drain line. Pour oil and fats into a jar or container then dispose properly.
  • Try waiting 10 minutes in between showers and trips to the restroom.
  • When in doubt, throw it out. Use garbage disposals less, throw most things in the trash.
  • Keep water dripping in faucets that are prone to freezing.
 Avoid holiday congestion during the Christmas and New Years Holiday week, call us at (516) 874-7937 for more information on  maintenance and repair services.
