Q: How do I prevent drain blockages?

• <div><p>Regular cleaning, avoiding grease disposal in sinks, and installing drain strainers help prevent clogs.</p></div>

Q: Can I shower when the water main is broken?

• <div><p>While you may have some water, it's best to wait until after the repair is complete to use your home's pipes. For one thing, the water pressure will most likely be greatly reduced, leading to a less-than-intense shower. There's also the risk of contamination from dirt and bacteria that can enter the broken water main pipe. In many cases, a pro will <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-turn-off-water-main.htm">turn off the flow of water from your water main</a> to do the repairs, so showering won&rsquo;t likely be an option.</p></div>

Q: Why is my shower diverter not fully diverting?

• <div><p>There are a few reasons your diverter valve may not be fully diverting. Blockages from mineral buildup are common, but if your diverter is older, it may be suffering from normal wear and tear. Components can wear down or crack. In some cases, the cartridge may be defective, and you&rsquo;ll need to replace it.</p></div>

Q: What should you do if the main shut-off valve is leaking?

• <div><p>If you notice your main water shut-off valve is leaking, try tightening the valve slightly to see if it stops the leak. If the leak persists or worsens, it&rsquo;s best to contact a licensed plumber to assess and repair the valve. Using too much force or attempting a DIY repair can further damage the valve. </p></div>

Q: Can you pour bleach down the toilet?

• <div><p>You can pour bleach down the toilet as long as you dilute it since undiluted bleach can damage your toilet bowl. If you choose to use bleach to remove stains from your toilet, mix every cup of bleach with a gallon of water. You should also follow safety precautions when using bleach, like working in a well-ventilated area, wearing gloves, and never mixing it with any other cleaner. </p></div>
