Prevention Is Better Than Cure

Why spend money on a sewer repair if you can prevent the damage in the first place? We fully vouch that prevention is better than cure. Our mission is not to make maximum profit. Rooter Hero Plumbing’s goal is to ensure everyone in our community has reliable plumbing and sewer systems. To that end, here are some ways to reduce the risk of sewer line damage:

• Do not flush anything other than toilet paper, pee, and poo.
• Toss food scraps in the trash or compost bin, not the kitchen sink.
• Do not pour used fats, oils, and greases into the drains!
• Avoid harsh chemical drain cleaners. Use natural cleaners instead.
• Schedule a sewer line cleaning in Berkeley once every two years.

These simple steps can be the difference between a sewer line that lasts 30 years and one that lasts 100 years. If you prefer professional sewer line maintenance, then call Rooter Hero Plumbing to consult with a professional.
