Hey there, spring enthusiasts! As the warm breeze starts tickling our noses and flowers show off their colours, it’s time to give our plumbing some extra love. Just like we clean our rooms and get ready for the fun of spring, our plumbing needs a little TLC too. Here are the top five spring plumbing tips that even the kids can understand!

1) Say Goodbye to Slow Drains

You know how sometimes the water in the sink takes forever to go down? It’s like when a turtle races a rabbit – super slow! That’s because there might be gunk and yucky stuff blocking the way. Let’s clear them out, so the water can zip down the drain like a slide at the park.

2) Showers Need Love Too

Have you ever seen water in the shower taking its sweet time to disappear? It’s like it’s playing hide and seek with us! But don’t worry, we can fix it. Just like you clean up your kids toys, let’s clean up the shower drain from all the hair and stuff that’s causing the trouble.

3) Happy Toilets Make Happy Homes

Uh-oh, sometimes the toilet gets a bit grumpy and doesn’t want things to go away. That’s when it might get all bubbly and messy. We can make it happy again by being careful about what we put in there. Remember, only toilet paper goes on this adventure!

4) The Mystery of Low Water Pressure

Ever turned on the tap and only a tiny bit of water came out? It’s like a tiny trickle, right? Well, that’s because the pipes might be rusting or clogged with gunk. We’ll need to clean them up so the water can flow out nice and strong, like a superhero!

5) Gutter Care for Grown-Ups (and Kids too!)

Guess what? The roof and the gutters need some love too. Leaves, sticks, and all sorts of things like to hang out there. It’s like a treehouse for debris! We need to clean them up twice a year, especially when the weather changes, like from winter to spring. That way, water can flow freely, and everything stays happy.

So, as we hop, skip, and jump into spring, remember that our plumbing needs a little attention too. By saying goodbye to slow drains, keeping showers happy, being nice to toilets, fixing water pressure, and helping grown-ups with the gutters, we’re making sure our home dances to the happy tune of springtime. Let’s keep the fun flowing, just like water in a slide at the FUN park!

    Came same day as I called to fix broken tap that couldn’t be turned off (had to turn water off at mains to stop flooding). Third time I’ve used them within 12 months for different issues. Very helpful, professional staff and reasonable pricing. Highly recommended.

    This is the second time I have used Doherty Plumbing Solutions. Their service and communication is first class. Tim and Angus were very professional. They were able to find the source of a difficult leak and make the appropriate repairs. I appreciate the quality work that they have done.

    Communication pre visit was excellent. Yarra Valley water representative said that the problem was on our property and that you should have fixed it. We’re unsure about that and pleased that it was fixed promptly.

    I rang them early morning & they arrived on the same day. They found the leak which was under the house, fixed it promptly. The plumber was helpful & friendly, communicated well. I'll use them again.

    George came; did my work quietly and respectfully. Noted a problem (big gaping crack in the pipe under the bench), and asked if we would like to change it. No pressure applied, and just added it to his list when I gave the go ahead. Would use this company again and again.
