New home buyer
We know the decision in buying a new home for the first time can be hard and with a lot of ups and downs. Let say you like a house and you want to buy that house. The house looks beautiful, new kitchen cabinets, granite counter top, stainless steel appliances, those two nice bathrooms just remodeled. The house of your dream. There is an inspector, building inspector which is doing his job as much as possible at the high standard. He wright a report which sounds good. You are almost there to sign the contract and live long and beautiful days in the new house. This is a beautiful story.
And here is coming our question, did you know something about the sewer line, about the water service if is from lead? No? In this situation we recommend before you have the closing to inspect the main sewer with a Sewer Specialist with at least few years experience and also have a Plumber to check the water service, what size is and how many fixtures can handle. The Sewer Specialist will run the video camera through the sewer and will inspect if this in good shape. He will advise you if the main sewer is OK. The Plumber will share with you all the above about water service. Only after those has been inspected you have a big picture about the hidden possible issues. If everything looks good in the reports we can say, yes you can purchase the house and enjoy.
At the end we show you some pictures which can occur if you don't follow our advice.

Antique toilets and bathrooms
How was looking a toilet in Rome or Athens? Did they have such things? Of course they where advance for that times. The freedom will give you, the beautiful mind, time to create, to developed projects to seek new ideas. The Romans and the Greeks took care of their health, probably not so expansive like in our days. We know the Romans Public bathrooms where a place of meetings and good time for many people, from senators to last citizen. The latrines, or public toilets where necessary to maintain the public health. I brought to you our friends few pictures discovered in the web. Enjoy.

We hope to have more business in this beautiful Village.

Have you prevent in a way or other the major disaster to happen to your home? Do you know there are some technologies or system how do you like which protect you home by disasters?

Outside flood control system.
Inside indirect waste system( lift station).
Both have the same efficiency with the note that the outside flood control system can be service by the service technicians without going inside of your home and is cleaner.
Because we install several in last 3 years and since than the homeowners do not have any more issues with the flooding. But don't forget like everything created by humans needs to have periodically maintenance.

New homeowners
More and more young families are buying houses and starts a new life. Most of them are moving from their parents house where most of the time where not involves in the day by day houses problems like regularly maintenance of the house or emergencies. Now it is different. They have responsibilities to maintain their houses and of course to improve the environment where they live. So in the plumbing and sewer side our recommendation once they move to hire a plumber and inspect all the plumbing and sewer installation. The house inspection, we consider is not sufficient to detect eventually issues, most of the time is made very superficial. Here is a list of what we recommend to be inspected soon as you move in:
1. Main sewer line with a video camera.
2. Outside spigots if they are frost free or regular.
3. Floor drains in the basements.
4. Kitchen sink drain.
5. Water heater age.
There are other to be checked but those are the most important.
