# What is Plumbing maintenance?

Plumbing maintenance refers to regular upkeep and inspections of the home’s water supply and drainage systems to ensure proper functioning and detect any developing issues. It involves checking piping, valves, and fixtures for leaks, corrosion, or blockages. Faucets and valves are lubricated, toilets are inspected for cracks, and appliances like water heaters receive basic care. Drain lines may need snaking to clear clogs. Water pressure levels and volume outputs at faucets are monitored. Winterizing outdoor fixtures helps prevent freezing damage. Maintaining plumbing components keeps performance optimized while identifying smaller problems before they escalate and cause damage or disrupt service. Proper drainage avoids costly pest or moisture intrusion issues.
