Get the House Ready for Company
Thanksgiving is the biggest day for travel in the whole country for the entire year. With the extended weekend, everyone takes to the road and spends time with friends and family. That means that more people will be staying in fewer houses. Homeowners need to ask themselves the honest question, “Is my home ready for the extra visitors?”
To answer that question, there are almost endless possibilities to consider. One of the things that can get easily overlooked is the condition of the plumbing and its ability to handle the holidays. Instead of leaving that to chance, take the advice of a local plumbing service. They’re here to tell homeowners what to look out for and how to go the extra mile to impress their guests.
Is the Toilet Ready to Handle the Extra Work?
Some of the signs that a toilet won’t handle the holidays are:
- Slow flushing
- Gurgling noises as the toilet is flushed
- Frequent clogs or backups
- Running toilet
- Loose toilet mounts that allow the toilet to wobble
If any of these signs are present, one should call a plumber for toilet replacement or repairs. Early repairs can make the difference between a party that goes smoothly and interrupted by sewage spilling across the bathroom floor.
Can the Kitchen Plumbing Handle Holiday Cooking?
Holidays are all about lavish meals, and there is nothing more important to the success of a meal than a home’s plumbing. Whether it be with garbage disposals, gas lines, or appliances like dishwashers, the success of a holiday meal hinges on the performance of the plumbing, and local plumbers are ready to help!
Before starting the holiday cooking season, homeowners should schedule plumbers to look at the kitchen plumbing. They can inspect gas lines for safety and perform a sink replacement to accommodate more dishes generated from holiday meals. Plumbers are also the only tradespeople allowed to hook up dishwashers, so meal cleanup is a breeze.
Upgrade Bathroom Plumbing Fixtures to Impress Guests
Holidays are great, but they can impress family and friends by showing progress around the home. A subtle way to show home improvements is by investing in the bathroom. Bathroom contractors can help update bathrooms in a variety of ways, including:
- Toilet replacement
- Faucet replacement
- Sink upgrades
- Installing a new shower
- Replacing plumbing fixtures
All of these are low-cost ways to upgrade all of the bathrooms around the home. Whether guests are staying for an evening or a week, they will need to use the bathroom. Make their stay pleasurable with upgrades around the bathroom, and be proud to show the home off.
