Have your septic tank cleaned every five years to keep it in prime condition. This will keep sediment from building and causing backup into the house, and possibly causing the septic system to fail.

If you have a pipe that freezes, you should turn on the faucet that is close to the pipe; this way, the water has a place to go. As such, bursting can be halted, saving you from even more costly damages.
Don't let your house temperature drop to below freezing and make sure to insulate anything that is exposed to the outside elements to prevent frozen pipes. But, be advised that your pipes may freeze if the surrounding temperature near those pipes is less than freezing. It takes time for thawing to occur so you can have water again. In the worst case, the pipes would burst, and you would be stuck with costly repairs and a very messy cleanup procedure.

Check for floor damage around your toilet. If the floor around your toilet feels softer than the rest of the floor in your bathroom, there's damage you need to address. Put a foot on each side of the toilet and put weight on each side, if you have any give you may have damage. When you have a problem like this to deal with, the earlier you detect it, the less expensive it will be to take care of.
Keep a strainer over every drain in your house to prevent stray debris from clogging your pipes. Thoroughly clean the strainer on a regular basis. The ones in your bathtub should also be cleaned frequently, as needed.
