Keeping your plumbing running smoothly this season

A little plumbing maintenance can go a long way

Your plumbing is one of those things you probably do not think about until something goes wrong.

A leaking tap, slow drain or temperamental hot water system might seem like a minor inconvenience, but small plumbing issues can quickly turn into bigger and more expensive problems when left unattended.

At Swag Plumbing & Drainage, we believe a little preventative maintenance can save a lot of stress down the track. Here are a few simple things worth checking around your home or property this month.

🚿 Check your taps and toilets

Keep an eye out for dripping taps, running toilets or moisture around plumbing fixtures. Even a small leak can waste a surprising amount of water over time and may indicate that something needs attention.

💧 Keep an eye on your water bill

A sudden increase in your water usage without a change in your household habits can be an early warning sign of a hidden leak. If your bill has unexpectedly jumped, it may be worth having your plumbing checked.

🔥 Give your hot water system some attention

Your hot water system works hard every day. If you are noticing fluctuating temperatures, unusual noises, reduced hot water or water pooling around the unit, it is worth getting it checked before the system fails completely.

🚰 Do not ignore slow drains

A drain that is becoming increasingly slow is often a sign of a developing blockage. Acting early can help prevent a complete blockage, unpleasant smells and potential damage to your plumbing.
