Keeping your home's plumbing system in good shape saves you money, prevents costly damage, and gives you peace of mind.

At Drain Care Plumbing- your trusted Sacramento Plumbers (CSLB #1138414)- We've helped hundreds of homeowners with everything from clogged drains to water header replacements. Below, we share expert tips every homeowner should know to keep water flowing smoothly. 

Clog Removal

Pro Tip: Pour 1/2 cup of baking soda followed by 1 cup of vinegar down the drain. Let it fizz for 20-30
minutes, then rinse with boiling water. This natural method can help clear light clogs from hair, grease, or
soap buildup.

When to call us: If drains are still slow or smell bad- could be a deeper blockage.

Pipe Maintenance

Pro Tip: Check under sinks and around exposed pipes monthly for signs of corrosion, moisture, or leaks.
Catching small problems early can save you thousands in water damage and repairs.

Don't ignore: Leaky pipes can damage cabinet and floors fast.

Water Heater Care

Pro Tip: Drain and flush your water heater once a year to remove sediment buildup. This helps improve
heating efficiency and extends the life of your unit. Don't forget to test the pressure relief valve!

Need help: We do maintenance, flushes, and full replacements.

Emergency Preparedness

Pro Tip: Know where your main water shutoff valve is. In a plumbing emergency, turning it off quickly can
prevent major damage. Keep a flashlight, wrench, and Drain Care Plumbing's contact info nearby for emergencies.
