\"\"<\/p>\n

It’s important that we talk about common myths and misconceptions on our blog. Not just because we like to brag about our plumbing expertise, but because time and time again homeowners are looped into thinking something about their drain that really isn’t true. The more you believe in myths instead of science in regards to your plumbing, the more likely you are to run into expensive problems that we end up having to fix.<\/p>\n

When you take the time to educate yourself about bathroom plumbing in Essex County,<\/a> it really shows. Drains that last longer and clog less can be the result of homeowners who really understand how they work and do their due diligence to contact a plumber when it matters.<\/p>\n

So, let’s talk about some myths that surround our plumbing systems and discuss some possible solutions to the problems associated with them. If you’re not satisfied with the information on this blog, make sure you call us for our professional opinion!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Myth #1: Chemical Drain Cleaners Work<\/h2>\n

If you headed to the grocery store right now, you’d probably see a whole aisle full of chemical drain cleaners. While this may make you\u00a0feel<\/em> like they’re a plausible solution to your drain clogging problem, there’s a more sinister reality at play. Chemical drain cleaners might technically\u00a0work<\/em>, but when we say work, take that with a very large grain of salt.\u00a0They actually eat away at the materials that line your plumbing system while they get at clogging material. Not only that, but sometimes they\u00a0don’t work<\/em>, and you end up dealing with the fumes, chemical burns, and a ruined plumbing system as a result.<\/p>\n

We’re more concerned with discussing plumbing solutions that are tried and tested to work every time. Put that drain cleaner back on the shelf and call us for some healthier options.<\/p>\n

Myth #2:\u00a0A Slow Drain Is Fine<\/h2>\n

Many of us deal with slow drains at home which can be frustrating. What’s more frustrating is the myth that slow drains are just normal, and you’re going to have drains that operate slowly forever. This is not the case!<\/p>\n

Slow drains usually indicate that a clog is forming. Honestly, slow drains can be a great sign to heed, because they allow you\u00a0time to call a professional plumber to arrive and deal with it before it becomes an actual clog.<\/p>\n

Myth #3:\u00a0Only Call a Plumber as a Last Resort<\/h2>\n

Far too many times do we arrive at a home to be the last resort. While we’re always happy to help a struggling customer, proactive solutions are always better than reactive ones. If you’re unhappy with the way your drains work, or with a clog that’s forming in your pipes, you can always call us. A plumber doesn’t have to be the solution that comes after you’ve tried everything else\u2014sometimes calling a professional plumber is a quick and simple solution that you know will work.<\/p>\n
