As a licensed plumber, I recommend scheduling routine plumbing maintenance at least once a year. This can include checking for leaks, inspecting pipes for corrosion, testing water pressure, and ensuring all fixtures are working properly. Regular maintenance helps prevent costly repairs and extends the longevity and efficiency of your plumbing system.

To prevent future clogs in your sewer drain after it has been cleared, you can consider the following measures:<br /><br />1. Avoid flushing non-biodegradable items down the toilet.<br />2. Use a hair catcher in the shower and bathtub drains to prevent hair buildup.<br />3. Dispose of cooking grease and oil in a proper container instead of pouring it down the drain.<br />4. Regularly clean out debris from drain strainers and stoppers.<br />5. Consider scheduling regular professional drain cleaning maintenance to prevent buildup.

To improve water pressure in your bathroom plumbing fixtures, you can try the following steps:<br /><br />1. Check for any clogs or blockages in the pipes.<br />2. Make sure the shut-off valves are fully open.<br />3. Clean or replace the aerators on faucets.<br />4. Consider installing a water pressure booster pump.<br />5. Have a professional plumber inspect and adjust the pressure regulator if needed.
