NEWCASTLE, Australia, Feb. 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Heavy rain can cause a number of problems for homeowners, including plumbing problems. Accordingly The sanitary lifesaverThe leading plumbers NewcastleThese are the most common problems that can arise during heavy rain.
Sewage backlog is one of the most common problems caused by heavy rainfall. The sanitary lifesaver says it can be caused by a blockage in the sewer line or a problem with the treatment plant. If residents notice that the toilet, sink, or shower is draining slowly or not at all, it’s important to call a licensed plumber right away.
The sanitary lifesaver points out another problem that can occur during heavy rains is flooding. Flooding can cause water to enter a home through basement walls, doors, or windows, causing extensive water damage. When residents experience flooding during heavy rain, it’s important to shut off electricity and gas if possible and evacuate the home until the flooding subsides.
It’s also important to ensure gutters and downspouts are clear of debris before heavy rain, advises The Plumbing Life Saver, noting that blocked drains are a common problem across Newcastle. Clogged gutters and downspouts can allow water to overflow and possibly damage the roof or the outside of the home. Regular cleaning of gutters and downspouts can prevent this problem.
For those with a rainwater tank, according to The Plumbing Life Saver, it’s important to make sure it’s properly maintained and working properly. During heavy rain, a rainwater tank can fill up quickly, causing water to overflow and possibly flooding the property. Regular inspection and maintenance of the rainwater tank can prevent this problem.
According to The Plumbing Life Saver, if residents notice problems with the installation during heavy rain, it’s important to call a licensed plumber immediately. Ensuring that gutters and downspouts are free of debris and that the rainwater tank is properly maintained can also help protect the property during heavy rains.
