To find a reliable plumber in your area, consider using the EaseFix app. This user-friendly platform allows you to search for qualified, certified plumbers near you easily, read reviews, and book appointments. The app also allows you to track the plumber's arrival, make secure payments and ensures you are working with a trustworthy professional.
The cost to hire a plumber can vary depending on factors such as the type of service required, the complexity of the job, and your location. Most plumbers charge either hourly or flat fees for specific services. To get an accurate estimate, providing as much detail as possible about your plumbing issue when contacting a plumber or using the EaseFix app to book a service is recommended.
Use a drain strainer to catch food particles and other debris; avoid flushing non-biodegradable items like wipes, feminine hygiene products, and diapers down the toilet; and regularly clean your drain with a mixture of hot water, baking soda, and vinegar to break down buildup. Call an EaseFix plumber for skilled drain cleaning and unblocking if you have a tough blockage.
In a plumbing emergency like a burst pipe, quickly minimizing damage is essential. First, shut off the main water supply to your home to stop the water flow. Next, turn off any electrical appliances near the affected area to reduce the risk of electrocution. Then, contact a professional plumber, like those available through EaseFix, who offers 24/7 emergency plumbing services. While waiting for the plumber's arrival, remove as much water as possible by mopping or using towels to soak up the excess water.
