The hierarchy of needs and its relationship to plumbing

It is said that the most basic needs of man are the following: air, food, water, sleep and shelter.

Your home must be perfectly equipped to provide each of these needs: clean air, nutritious food, reliable water, and comfortable rest in a safe haven. Because once you have these basic needs, you can move on to the higher requirements like: security, love, esteem, and self-fulfillment.

We don’t want to sit in our homes and worry about the air we breathe or the water we drink. That’s why you need to take care of the most important spine in your home – the plumbing.

Overflowing water or sewage can pose various dangers to you and your family’s health. Leftover water can turn into harmful mold that can cause respiratory problems and damage even the first basic need to breathe. Spilled waste can contain bacteria that can cause infection or illness.

When a sewer line becomes clogged, the result should be treated by a professional to minimize the chance of it happening again. The qualified and trained plumber has the necessary equipment to clean the drains so that damage to your shelter can be reduced. Additionally, clutter must be contained and cleaned up so there are no more contaminants or mold potential.

Clogs may come from that nimble kid who is known for his ability to quickly escape and drop a Lego down the toilet. But you don’t have to have a 2-year-old for drains to clog. Any foreign object can get stuck in the fatty deposits that are already there and begin to accumulate other materials such as toilet paper, food particles, hair, and other items. A clog will quickly form behind a foreign object stuck in a sewer pipe.

Tree roots can be a hazard to sewer pipes. Moisture inside the pipe attracts the increasingly elongated root. This growing plant anchor can drive into even the smallest sewer line cracks or joints. The roots will then grow, enlarging the crack. These roots will quickly become a barrier to hair, paper, and other materials.

With the video inspection service, the obstruction can be diagnosed quickly. A suitable course of action can then be determined, perhaps a snake, an environmentally safe drain cleaning, or a power rooter.

When your plumbing threatens your basic needs like air, water, and a good night’s sleep because you are concerned about your pipes, call in a qualified professional. A professional plumber will put your worries aside.
