Is Your Calgary Home Ready for Spring Plumbing Maintenance?
Spring is a season of melt, mud, and… plumbing surprises. As Calgary thaws out, it’s the perfect time to give your pipes, drains, and sump pumps a little TLC.
Here’s your simple spring plumbing checklist:
Check for Cracked Pipes
Freezing temps can damage pipes—look under sinks, in basements, and around your foundation.
Test Your Sump Pump
Spring melt = more water. Pour a bucket of water in the pit to make sure it kicks on properly.
Inspect Your Water Heater
Sediment builds up over winter. Flush it out or have us handle it—easy maintenance that extends life.
Look for Slow Drains
If water is draining slowly, you may have a clog forming. A quick clean now avoids a backup later.
Check Outdoor Faucets
Turn them back on and watch for leaks—frozen hose bibs are a springtime headache.
