The Importance of Drain Cleaning, Seasonal Maintenance Before Winter


Although Aurora enjoys truly wonderful summers, we are all aware that temperatures during the winter can dip as low as -14ÂșC. This is problematic in terms of plumbing, for many problems will occur at the most unexpected of times due to the frigid temperatures. It is therefore critical to employ a trusted firm to provide regular maintenance services. What are some of the benefits that preventative examinations will offer? Hard Water Issues There are many homes within Newmarket and Aurora that suffer from hard water. This is a condition defined by the presence of minerals (commonly calcium and magnesium) within the mains supply. Such deposits can dramatically alter the natural taste and over time, excess deposits may lead to the narrowing and corrosion of pipes. In some cases, the pipes become so narrow that it increases the amount of pressure within the pipes. When the winter season rolls in, such pipes are more prone to bursting.

Beyond the Bathroom: Plumbers Help with More Than Simple Installation


Plumbers serving Barrie, Aurora, and other surrounding areas do more than fix leaking taps and install new toilets.

Many times, these extra services include: Complete Drain Cleaning Many plumbers will make use of what is known colloquially as a “pipe snake”. This is a mechanical device intended to scrape away excess material from the interior lining. However, there are also occasions when high-pressure jets of water will be used to more thoroughly address any materials that may otherwise be tough to remove.

Pointers from Plumbers on How to Prevent or Address Busted Pipes


Out of all the issues plumbers are called out for, burst pipes are probably the most common. There are many different reasons that lead to a pipe bursting, but the most frequent is that people don't winterize their plumbing or their pipes are simply inadequate for the conditions in winter. Aside from that, pipes also burst due to age, misuse, or damage building up over time. Wherever there's a fault in your plumbing, the effects of water pressure will gradually eat away at weaknesses and may eventually cause a busted pipe. Depending on where the leak is, a burst pipe can cause massive amounts of damage to a house, forcing people to relocate while they wait for plumbers and, in the very worst of cases, to close down an entire street for days on end.
