As we continue to prioritize safety at home, many are seizing the opportunity for spring cleaning. Beyond the usual tasks like organizing closets and disinfecting surfaces, it’s crucial to address your plumbing system, which may be under increased stress with more people at home.
Preventative Plumbing Maintenance
Your home’s plumbing network channels waste into the sewage system or a septic tank. Neglecting maintenance can lead to clogs or septic overflows, posing health risks and potential fines. Additionally, without a properly capped sewer cleanout, harmful gases could infiltrate your home.
Toilet Troubles
Is your toilet frequently clogging or showing signs of wear? These issues might indicate it’s time for a replacement. Toilets are durable but not everlasting. Signs you may need a new one include:
- Recurring clogs: Unexpected or frequent blockages.
- Cracked porcelain: Visible damage compromising integrity.
- Sticking handle: Difficulty flushing.
- Weak flush pressure: Inadequate waste removal.
- Frequent repairs: Constant maintenance needs.

Sink and Faucet Considerations
Sinks endure daily use, and over time, they may show signs of aging. Indicators it’s time for an upgrade include:
- Visible wear and tear: Stains, scratches, or rust.
- Constant repairs: Ongoing issues despite fixes.
- Outdated appearance: Styles that no longer match your decor.

- Clean drains: Remove debris from gutters and downspouts to prevent blockages.
