Upcoming Changes in your Plumbing Needs

With the changing season your plumbing needs may change.  Things that go wrong with your plumbing infrastructure in the dead of winter may be unusual and severe.  A leaky toilet, a flooded basement, a bad sump pump, and much more don’t observe any calendar.  They happen when you least expect them and turn your household upside down.

It is important to trust a professional plumber even if you believe that your do it yourself skills are enough to tackle the task.  You could turn a minor problem into a major one very quickly without the proper tools and expertise for the job.  Make the sensible decision.  Don’t become one of those amateur fixer-uppers that ends up with thousands of dollars of damage and plumbing bills.

The most important thing to remember this time and any time of year is that you want a plumber that can fix what needs fixing anytime and can handle any job.  It is imperative to have a family plumber that you trust just like a family dentist or a family auto mechanic.  Get to know Poor Johns Plumbing. They handle all plumbing tasks all the time.   If you live in the Kansas City area please visit their website at www.poorjohns.com for a list of the phone numbers that is nearest to you.  Trust Poor Johns for ANY plumbing problem.

Cleaning Your Septic System

In the Kansas City area many residents are not connected to a city sewer.  If not, you will probably have a septic system.  The average homeowner probably knows little or nothing about the operation and especially the maintenance of that system.  If it overflows you and the neighbors will know more than they ever wanted to know!

By design, these systems are fairly simple. All drains in the home converge to a single pipe that leads to the septic tank buried outside.  When the waste water from your toilet, shower, sinks and washing machine leave your house, it's combined. When it hits the septic tank, however, it begins to separate.  As simple as their design may be, septic systems require the homeowner to monitor them before problems arise.

Do you want to “monitor” the waste in your septic tank?  I don’t!  That is why you call the plumbing professionals at Poor Johns Plumbing, serving the Kansas City metro.  Their trained technicians will tell you whether you need routine maintenance, repairs or total replacement.  For a list of phone numbers to call in your area visit their website at www.poorjohns.com and call for a free estimate.  Leave the dirty work to the people with expertise.
