Why Your Outdoor Plumbing Needs Maintenance Too
You finally finished fixing up your dream home in Mission Viejo. After fixing water damage in your basement and unclogging an entire home of slow and cloggy drains, you’re ready to sit back and relax. The plumbing inside your home is fresh and clean, but what does your outdoor plumbing look like?
Don’t Overlook These Outdoor Plumbing Tasks
Your outdoor plumbing maintenance is just as important as indoor plumbing maintenance for the safety of your home. If problems outside aren’t addressed, all those indoor repairs could quickly become undone. Outdoor issues like clogged gutters or hidden sewer line damage can cause backups, leaks, and even water damage inside your home.
Add these tasks to your spring cleaning routine for a smooth-running home plumbing system that will help make slow drains a distant memory:
✅ Clean Your Gutters & Downspouts
Gutters are like your home’s drainage system. When they’re clogged, water has nowhere to go—except into your walls, foundation, and roof. And trust me, water damage is way worse than getting your hands a little dirty cleaning out leaves!
✅ Schedule a Sewer Line Inspection
A slow drain inside your house could mean tree roots outside are strangling your sewer line. A quick sewer line video inspection lets us find the problem without tearing up your yard—so you don’t have to play detective.
✅ Check Your Hose Bib for Cracks
A tiny crack in your hose bib might not seem like a big deal—until it starts leaking, raising your water bill, and damaging the surrounding area. If yours is past its prime, we’ll get it replaced right away!
