Holiday disasters
Plumbers see a big increase in activity during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Simple forethought will prevent big messes and inconvenient repairs. With all the food prepared and served during the holidays, garbage disposal use increases dramatically.
- Do not place grease or meat in your garbage disposal.
- Run water constantly and grind only small amounts of food at a time.
- Be sure all food is completely gone when finish using the garbage disposal. This will help avoid overfilling and unpleasant odors.
House guests, holiday parties, and holiday meals bring more people than usual into your home. This gives your toilets a work out.
- Check out your toilets to make sure they are in good working order prior to the holidays.
- Provide a plunger in each bathroom for immediate use.
- Make sure only toilet paper is used in toilets.
