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.

Spring 2016

There is one week inside the Spring of 2016. So far after a moderate Winter the beginning of the Spring is pretty nice in Great Chicago land area. But how we know the south stream which bring the rains in the neighborhood is closer. So are you prepare to this? Is your plumbing system prepare for this? You are smiling and this means that is not. So we can give you some tips. Are you ready?

1. Clean the main sewer line and have done a video camera inspection of the main sewer to prevent the obstructions like roots, debris exiting in the sewer.

2. Check the sump pump and the battery back up system if is ready to help the primary sump pump. Also check if outside the discharging pipe nave no obstruction to discharge the water.

3. Do you have window well? Is this cleaned enough by the debris, dirt, or even more by the leaves accumulated for last fall? No, then clean the window well.

4. Check the down spots if they are properly hanged and no leaves inside to block the rain drained from the roof.

One more think. Are you doing all those by yourself? Please don't. Call a sewer technician or a plumber. They know what to do and you have enough time to relax and enjoy the Spring.
Look how beautiful is the Spring.
