Q: What happens if I don’t fix a broken sewer cleanout cap?

• <div><p>There are a few things that can happen to your sewer system if you don&rsquo;t fix it. These include rainwater entering it and causing rust and corrosion, dirt and debris leading to blockages, small animals getting stuck inside and clogging your sewer line or entering your home, and shortening the sewer system&rsquo;s life span. </p><p>Without a cap, nothing prevents toxic and non-toxic gasses like methane and hydrogen sulfide from slowly escaping your sewer system and entering your home and the surrounding atmosphere, resulting in a foul <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-stinks-how-get-rid-sewer-gas-smell.htm">sewer odor throughout your house</a>. </p></div>

Q: How do you avoid future clogs?

• <div><p>Using less toilet paper is the easiest way to prevent future clogs. Also, avoid flushing sanitary products, thick paper towels, or hair down the toilet. If you&rsquo;ve been using a brick in the tank to reduce the water used to flush the toilet, take it out immediately. Bricks will eventually fall apart and clog your toilet drain. Keeping your toilet lid closed also helps avoid future clogs.</p></div>

Q: Is Thanksgiving the busiest day for plumbers?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s true: Thanksgiving is known as one of the busiest days of the year for plumbers. The day after Thanksgiving is also a jam-packed day, as people reckon with the issues caused by pushing too much turkey meat down the garbage disposal or other plumbing problems. If you run into a plumbing emergency during Thanksgiving, you can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that plenty of plumbers work on Thanksgiving due to the uptick in demand.</p></div>

Q: Are sewer cameras worth it?

• <div><p>Yes. Sewer cameras are invaluable tools that can help pros safely diagnose problems with your septic system. Without a camera to look into your system, septic issue diagnoses would be a combination of guessing and past experience. However, a camera can help confirm ideas that your pro may already have about what&rsquo;s wrong.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take for flushable wipes to break down?

• <div><p>Some flushable wipes companies say they are designed to disintegrate within a few hours to a few days after being flushed. These wipes allegedly use materials that are more water-soluble than traditional wipes. However, many experts have raised concerns that even so-called &quot;flushable&quot; wipes do not break down as easily as claimed and can contribute to clogs and blockages in sewer systems.</p><p>To prevent plumbing and sewer problems, avoid flushing wipes, even those labeled as flushable. Instead, dispose of them in the trash. This can help prevent costly plumbing issues and reduce the strain on wastewater treatment systems.</p></div>

We had a BIG cleaning project for Dave. When I returned 4 hours later, I was speechless and all I could say was “WOW” as I checked out each room! He’s a very polite young man and a very hard worker with great attention to detail.
