When was the last time you checked behind your washing machine?

Washer hookup leaks are one of the most common causes of hidden water damage in a home! Because these hoses sit tucked away behind the machine under high, constant water pressure, a small wear-and-tear issue can quickly turn into a major room flood.

Here are 4 key things to look out for around your washer lines:

🚨 Rubber Hose Cracks or Bulges: Standard rubber hoses dry out and weaken over time. If you see blistering, cracking, or soft spots, the hose is at high risk of bursting!

🚨 Corrosion on Water Supply Valves: Look for white crusty buildup, green rust, or moisture around the hot and cold shut-off valves.

🚨 Dampness or Standing Water: Check the floor and baseboards directly under and behind the unit for hidden drips or mold growth.

🚨 Drain Pipe Overflow: If water backs up out of the standpipe during the drain cycle, your washing machine drain line may have a partial lint clog.

Pro Tip: Upgrade old rubber hoses to braided stainless steel lines for maximum protection!

If your shut-off valves are stuck, dripping, or you need a hand upgrading your hookups, skip the hassle and call your local, family-owned crew. We offer FREE in-home estimates across Modesto, and the Central Valley!

It might seem quick and harmless to dump liquid grease down your kitchen sink or garbage disposal while it’s warm, but it causes massive head-aches for your plumbing system down the road.

Here is what actually happens when grease, oils, or fats go down your sink or disposal:

•It hardens into a solid plug: Warm liquid grease quickly cools off as it travels through your cold pipes, solidifying into a concrete-like blockage.

•It traps other food debris: Sticky grease coats the walls of your drain, catching rice, coffee grounds, and food particles until the pipe is completely choked off.

•It damages your garbage disposal: Fats coat the internal impellers and grinding chamber of your unit, gumming up the mechanism and causing motors to burn out.

•It creates foul, lingering kitchen odors: Trapped fat rancidifies inside your p-trap and disposal over time, causing stubborn smells that won’t go away.

•It leads to costly sewer line backups: Grease that makes it past your sink pipes can build up in your main sewer line, leading to messy, full-house plumbing emergencies.
