Springtime Does NOT Mean NO Plumbing Problems.

You may need a professional plumber in Elgin and the surrounding area even in springtime because there are unique issues that may arise with your plumbing system. There is no question that spring’s temperate weather can provide welcome relief from the cloudy skies, slick roads, and the freezing temperatures of wintertime in Chicagoland.

Here are some common springtime plumbing problems –

 

1.  It is a common sight around here for gutters to become clogged in the spring.

2.  Steady drops in water pressure can result from a number of things.

3.  Sewer lines could become obstructed.

4.  Your property has to drain properly to prevent water from setting around the foundation.

This Drain is a REAL Pain!

No one in the Elgin area ever wants a clogged drain in their home or business. It virtually shuts down that room when it happens. You may need Elgin’s drain cleaning experts. Sometimes nature is the culprit. You can’t always avoid tree roots from “rooting” their way into the drainage system causing it to slow down to a crawl. There are some things that you CAN avoid.

Here is a partial list –

1.  Be careful how much human and pet hair is going down that drain.

2.  Soap scum accumulates over time.

3.  Food that is dumped down the drain.

4.  Baby wipes and diapers (seniors…ignore this one)

5.  Dreaded kitty litter…we know you know better!
