Have a Safe and Dry Holiday Season.

What do we mean by safe and DRY?  Well, the safe part speaks for itself, but by dry we mean no plumbing problems.  No one needs another thing to think about when having guests over or using the garbage disposal more.  A lot of appliances will get an extra workout this time of year that’s for sure, so we hope that your season is free from those worries.

Always rest assured that if you live in the Kansas City area, Poor John’s Plumbing will be there whenever you need us.  Since faulty plumbing knows no holiday and neither do we.  If a toilet needs fixing, if a garbage disposal needs repairing, if a water heater goes bad, we will be there to fix or replace it and we will do it on a holiday budget because our prices are always lower.

Check out our website at www.poorjohns.com.  Go to the prices page.  Generally, plumbers don’t have pages like that on their website.  We WANT you to see our prices before you pick up your phone.  Please note that we have different phone numbers to serve various areas of the Kansas City metro area, to give you the fastest service possible.  Happy holidays from our family at Poor Johns to yours.

Plumbing Tips for Winter.

Guard against poor heating in bitterly cold weather.  This is the core of the worst thing that can happen to any home in Kansas City this winter.  Regular maintenance of your heating system even after the first cold snap is recommended.  Your heating system runs at full capacity at sub-zero temperatures so that is a good time to have it tested.  A professional with an OHM meter can tell if the element needs to be replaced.

Then there is your hot water system.  It seems that it fails just when you need it the most.  Here is one tip that you may follow.  Try to allow at least 10-15 minutes between any two showers in your home.  This will keep the temperature consistent.

This time of year with harsh temperatures creating serious plumbing problems you need the help of a professional.  In Kansas City that pro is Poor Johns Plumbing.  For decades we have been serving the Kansas City area 24/7 365 days a year.  Visit our website at www.poorjohns.com to find the right phone number to call for help in your area of the KC metro.
