A bathroom is a common place for many plumbing problems, and it is highly recommended to take a few preventative measures to avoid potential problems.

It’s a good idea to: 

• Run the hot water at least once a week to help keep it free-flowing.
   
• Repair leaky faucets to avoid further damage to fixtures and faucets.
   
• Clean the strainers of tubs and showers- should be done on a regular basis.
   
• A common cause of many Birmingham plumbing problems can be linked to people using the toilet as a wastebasket. Do not flush facial tissue, sanitary products or diapers, as they do not dissolve and can easily clog the lines.
