As summer winds down, it is a good time to give your home’s plumbing a quick check before fall arrives. 🍂

Take a walk around your home and look for:

🔍 Leaking outdoor faucets
🔍 Slow kitchen or bathroom drains
🔍 Toilets that continue running
🔍 Moisture beneath sinks
🔍 Changes in water pressure
🔍 Unusual drain sounds or odours

Finding a problem early gives you an opportunity to address it before the colder months arrive.

Need help with something on your checklist? A Rescue Rooter is only a call away.

Summer BBQ cleanup can be tough on your kitchen plumbing. 🍔

Grease and cooking oil may look harmless when they are warm, but they can cool and collect inside your pipes. Food particles can then stick to the buildup, increasing the likelihood of a stubborn clog.

After your next cookout:

✅ Scrape plates into the garbage or green bin where accepted
✅ Wipe greasy pans with a paper towel before washing
✅ Collect cooled grease in a sealed container
✅ Use a sink strainer to catch food scraps

Enjoy the BBQ—and give your drains a break!

Back-to-school mornings can put your bathroom plumbing through its busiest workout of the summer! 🎒

Before the morning rush returns:

🚽 Check toilets for constant running
🚿 Clear hair from shower-drain strainers
💧 Look beneath sinks for moisture or leaks
🚰 Test faucets for drips or low pressure
🛁 Pay attention to slow-draining tubs and sinks

Fixing small problems now can help make those busy mornings a little less stressful.

Small plumbing problems have a habit of becoming much bigger ones when they are ignored.

A dripping faucet, frequently clogged drain, running toilet or unexplained change in water pressure may seem easy to live with—but each one can point to a problem that deserves attention.

Some plumbing problems are hidden deep inside the pipes. That is where a sewer camera inspection can help. 📹

A specialized waterproof camera allows a plumber to examine the inside of a drain or sewer line and look for possible causes of recurring trouble, including:

🌳 Root intrusion
🧱 Damaged or misaligned pipes
🗑️ Built-up debris
💧 Cracks or deterioration
🚧 Difficult-to-locate blockages

It provides useful information without relying solely on guesswork—and can help determine the appropriate next step.

Would you know how to turn off your home’s water during a plumbing emergency?

Your main shut-off valve controls the water supply entering your home. Knowing where it is—and confirming that it can be operated—may help limit water damage if a pipe suddenly bursts or a major leak develops.

Main shut-off valves are commonly found:

🔧 Near the water meter
🔧 In the basement
🔧 In a utility room
🔧 Where the main water line enters the home

Take a few minutes to locate yours before an emergency happens.

Heavy summer rain can put added pressure on drainage and sewer systems. If water begins backing up through a basement drain, toilet, sink or shower, act quickly.

⚠️ Keep people and pets away from the affected area
⚠️ Avoid using sinks, toilets and water-dependent appliances
⚠️ Do not touch wastewater or attempt to clean it without proper protection
⚠️ Contact a professional plumber

A sewer backup can contain harmful contaminants and should always be treated seriously. A Rescue Rooter is available for plumbing emergencies, day or night.

Your kitchen drain is not a garbage can! 🚫

Avoid pouring or rinsing these items down the sink:

🛢️ Cooking grease and oil
☕ Coffee grounds
🍚 Rice and pasta
🥚 Eggshells
🎨 Paint or harsh chemicals
🥔 Fibrous food scraps

These materials can collect inside your pipes and contribute to stubborn blockages. Allow grease to cool, place it in a sealed container and dispose of it in accordance with your municipality’s guidelines.

Your drains will thank you!

Does your toilet continue running long after it has been flushed?

A running toilet may be caused by a worn flapper, an incorrect float level or another issue inside the tank. Even when the problem seems small, continuously flowing water can contribute to unnecessary water use.

Listen for:

🚽 Water running between flushes
🚽 A tank that takes too long to refill
🚽 Frequent cycling when nobody has used the toilet
🚽 The need to jiggle the handle

If a simple adjustment does not solve the problem, it may be time to call a plumber.

Heading out on a late-summer vacation? Add a quick plumbing check to your departure list! 🧳

Before leaving home:

✅ Check faucets, toilets and exposed pipes for leaks
✅ Make sure sinks and tubs are draining normally
✅ Avoid running the dishwasher or washing machine immediately before leaving
✅ Ask someone you trust to check your home during a longer trip
✅ Know where your main water shut-off valve is located

A few minutes of preparation can help you avoid coming home to an unpleasant plumbing surprise.
