Inspect Your Drains And Pipes Before Winter: Home Security Measures

• Use a plunger or try unclogging it with your own hands. However, you should only do this if the drain is not blocked by anything too big!
• Pour some boiling hot water down the drain every week. This will help maintain good drainage and also reduce any unpleasant smells coming from the drain.
• Make sure you are not disposing of any food or other substances down the sink! This is one of the most common causes for blockages in drains and also one that can be easily avoided.
• Be careful while using commercial drain cleaners, as they contain acids that may damage your pipes if used too often! Only use them when you really need to.

If you are still having problems with your drains, then it is time to call the professionals!
