Ask The Plumbing Experts!

3/1/2021

The winter is nearing its end, and springtime is almost upon us.  This time of year is all about renewal, rejuvenation, and reassessing our lives, and a big part of many homeowners’ spring season is dedicated to spring cleaning, garage sales, and home renovations.  From one season to the next, our home plumbing is one of those important components of our home in need of reassessment to ensure it continues to work properly.

During the winters in southeast Michigan, our plumbing can endure some hardships.  From leftover fall debris cluttering our sump pumps to an excess amount of buildup accruing in our water heaters, plumbing is a part of our homes that needs to be monitored consistently.

The expert plumbing technicians at Aaron Swift Plumbing continue to excel in the field of plumbing by providing 24-hour emergency plumbing services all year-round.  If your plumbing needs some extra attention coming into spring, don’t hesitate to give us a call to have our crew come to check it out.

Now, let’s go over some common plumbing issues homeowners face not only during the spring transition but regardless of the time of year!

Take a look at some of the more advanced tasks we will check:

• Water heater maintenance.  Aaron Swift knows the ins-and-outs of readily available hot water sources.  One of the most beneficial utilities for home water sources is tankless water heaters.  Tankless heaters are energy-efficient and will never hold gallons of heated water as traditional water heaters do.  An upgrade like this will heat water when it needs to be used instead of heating it and holding it — costing you more energy dollars over time.
• Water pressure is noticeably low.  Unbeknownst to the homeowner, low water pressure can mean there is a hidden issue going on, such as a leak in your toilet or faucet.  If you have been experiencing a slower-than-normal shower or bathroom faucet, this might be a sign that there are plumbing leaks somewhere in your home and they should get checked out right away.
• Drain snaking, drain cleaning, and hydro jetting.  Hydro jetting is a beneficial solution for drain cleaning and has become increasingly popular within the plumbing field.  Hydro jetting is used when temporary solutions by homeowners can’t successfully clear or remove a particular blockage such as grease, roots, hair, or mineral deposit.  This practice gives a much deeper and cleaner drain.
• Plumbing leaks in toilets, faucets, and more.  Toilets and faucets cause unnecessarily high water bills if they have a leak.  Our plumbers will check all areas of your faucets and toilets to make sure there are no leaks, cracks, or other broken seals causing leaks to continue running your bills up.
• Sump pump functioning properly.  After the winter ends, the snow melts, and sump pumps are cluttered with fall debris and tree branches, causing serious potential issues with your sump pump.  We will take a look at your sump pump so you can avoid the chance of flooding your basement or having to deal with serious water damage in the long run.

From sump pump plumbing to upgrading fixtures in your bathroom or kitchen, the Aaron Swift plumbers perform all kinds of plumbing maintenance for your home.  You can trust one of our experienced plumbers to check your plumbing so you can enjoy the upcoming spring!
