To prevent frozen pipes, always keep the living spaces in your house above freezing, even if you aren't home. Any exposed pipes need to be insulated against the outdoor temperatures. The pipes will be able to freeze if the temperature surrounding the pipes drops below freezing. At best, it can take time for them to thaw and for you to be able to have running water. However, frozen pipes commonly break or crack pipes, leading to flooding and costly repairs.
-
If a water pipe freezes, you should turn the on tap that is nearest to the pipe to ensure the water has a place to get out when the pipe thaws out. This assists you in relieving pressure within the pipe, and could stop any bursting from occurring, which can prevent additional damage to your home.

If one of your water pipes freezes, turn on the tap to the faucet nearest the pipe so that the water has somewhere to exit as the pipe thaws. This gives the pressure somewhere to go, and can keep them from bursting.
-
If your water pipe has frozen, start water running in the faucet closest to the frozen pipe. This will give excess water somewhere to drain as the ice in the pipe thaws. This can prevent damage to your house because it lets the pressure that is in the pipe out, and keeps it from bursting.

Don't give a plumber the total bill payment upfront; pay them only when they have finished the job. It is customary to put down one-third to one-half of the total cost before the work is started, but do not pay in full until it is complete. You should make sure the plumber did a good job before you pay in full.

Use a strainer over your sink drain to catch food and other bits of material. Otherwise, you will likely get a clogged drain. Each time a filter is clogged, it should be cleaned. Bathtub strainers need regular cleaning as well.
+
  Keep your dryer's lint trap clean. This will save you trouble, such as preventing fires. Make sure that you inspect the lint trap for any holes or tears that might mean lint is going to your pipes, which might lead to clogs and other problems to deal with.

[http://www.addabazz.com/index.php?p=blogs/viewstory/1238428 Plumbing Tips And Tricks You Need To Read] If you have any plumbing work that needs to be done, schedule it all to be done concurrently. It can be tempting to call a plumber each time you have a minor problem, but saving plumbing work for one time allows you to put money aside for the repairs. This can save you money since plumbers generally charge hourly, as they can't charge multiple hours per trip if it's only one trip out.

  If you take care of your plumbing, you will have lower plumbing bills. Clogged drains are one of the more common issues when it comes to plumbing problems. Drains are easily clogged by hair. A great way to help prevent those clogs is to install a screen on top of the drain. Just make sure that it properly fits your drain. Cleaning hair from the screen is a much easier affair than it would be to get the hair out of the pipe.

If your house uses well water and there are orange or pink stains in tubs or sinks, it's because of the iron level in the water. You should purchase a water softener to use, or ask a local business to make a visit to your residence and resolve the issue for you.

Over time, sediment buildup may lead to problems with low water pressure. Often, this problem can be addressed by thoroughly cleaning out the aerator. After removing the aerator, disassemble it, and use a small brush that's been dipped in vinegar to clean it. Rinse your aerator, put it back together and back into the faucet. Your water pressure should improve because the obstructing particles or buildup have been removed.
