Plumbing Tips

At Meeks Plumbing & Septic Service, you are our number one priority. For that reason, we have provided you with a few plumbing tips:

• Make sure you check each faucet in your home for leaks. Just a slow drip can waste several gallons a day.
• Check toilet flappers regularly for wear and replace as needed. A worn toilet flapper can leak silently and waste water and money.
• Check your toilet to make sure it is not leaking. Remove tank lid and add food coloring to the water in the tank. Check the bowl in about 15 minutes. If you see color, the flapper valve may be leaking.
• Make sure everyone in the house knows where the main water cutoff is in case of an emergency.
• To ensure that your valves will work when you need them to, open and close them once a year.
