Knowing where your mains water shut off valve, also known as stopcock is located could literally save you thousands. In the event of a burst pipe or a major leak, turning off the valve will stop the water supply to your house, and minimise the damages to your property.
It is normally located in the cupboard under the sink. If you can’t find it, a good idea is to ask your neighbours, as similar properties normally have it at the same place. And you can use the time to make some new friends as well!
We know it’s one of these gross jobs, and we know it takes time, and who even wants to do it, just after they’ve taken a refreshing shower? But a build-up of hair can cause a serious blockage in your drain, and you’ll end up paying for something you could have avoided. Make a habit of de-clogging the shower and bath drains from hair after every use, and pour a mixture of bicarbonate of soda and cider vinegar down the drain every few months.
If you still end up with clogged drains, you might need to call a drainage expert . They’ll not only unblock your drain but give you some advice on how to avoid a next visit.
Grease and oils solidify when in contact with cold water, and can clog the pipes causing enormous amount of damage. Instead, pour the hot oil and grease from your roasting and frying pans into a designated container and discard of it in the regular bin. Great way to further use leftover plastic containers.
A leaking toilet can add pounds to your water bill. An easy way to check for leaks is to put a drop or two of food colouring in the toilet tank. If you notice the water in your toilet bowl has changed colour in the next half an hour – you have a leak.
This one of the essential plumbing tips for homeowners with their own gardens. When temperatures start going down (mid-October to mid-November) make sure to disconnect your garden hoses from the outdoor tap. Drain the hoses, and put them away for winter, and make sure to drain the tap, and turn it off as well. Any water left in the pipes can freeze, expand and cause damage to your plumbing system.
