Drain and toilet clogs are a common occurrence. Fortunately, you can generally take care of these without outside help. Use the information below to get started:

Toilet Clogs

A plunger should clear all but the most severe clogs. To use one properly, flush your toilet ONCE. Then, press the bottom of the plunger over the drainage hole in the toilet and pump vigorously.

If the plunger doesn't help, lift the lid on the back of the tank to verify that the chain is still attached to the handle.

Drain Problems

Bathroom drains often become clogged over time, due to debris being flushed down the pipe. Consider installing drain traps to prevent this problem from reoccurring.

A drain cleaning tool, such as the Zipit, it a great option for removing hair from your drain. Don't use chemicals to clean your pipes, as these may damage the system.

Electrical outages may occur due to bad weather or problems with the grid. Please note, we cannot do anything to resolve such issues. Speak with your utility company for help.

You may also lose power if you overload the electrical circuit in your home. Check your breaker box and reset the breaker if necessary.

Locate your hot water heater and verify that the settings on the tank are correct. Some heaters have a reset cycle. If you cycle the tank, wait 15 to 20 minutes for the water to heat before testing the temperature.

If your home's heat or air conditioning is not working properly, locate your central thermostat and verify that the settings haven't been altered accidentally.

If you are in danger, call 911 for immediate help. For maintenance emergencies, please call us.
