Do You Need to Replace Your Sewer Line?
Nobody looks forward to it, of course, but many residents of
Snohomish and the Seattle area will be faced with it sooner or later. Tree roots often invade and clog broken sewer
lines. It has been said that copper sulfate, available from plumbers repels
roots. While this may only be a temporary fix, it can buy time before extensive
work is required.
Have you looked at your homeowner’s insurance policy? They generally EXCLUDE sewer line
replacements. If you are looking at a
sewer line endorsement to your policy, it may cost you about $100 per
year. Depending on your family’s
situation this may be a viable alternative worth looking into.
When and if that time comes the right man to call will be
Shawn Allen. For decades, as the owner
of Allen Plumbing, he has repaired and replaced sewer lines in Snohomish and
the surrounding area. Whenever you have
a plumbing need in the Seattle area call Shawn at this phone number first (425)
367-4744.

Hang on Mom and Dad…It’s Almost Over.
Yes, summer is winding down and the kids will be back in
school in a month. In the meantime, they
may be pouring anything and everything down the sink and your garbage disposal
is getting quite a workout. Fixing a
cranky garbage disposal by yourself may not only be an exercise in futility,
but downright dangerous!
Here are some signs when you should be calling a plumber
1. You turn it on,
but there is no noise. It may be shot.
2. Water is leaking
from the disposal.
3. It is draining at
a glacial pace.
4. Something is
blocking the flywheel.
There are others, but these are just some signs that it is
time to call in a pro. In Snohomish and
the Seattle area that man is Shawn Allen of Allen Plumbing. He will fix or replace your dying disposal
quickly and efficiently…guaranteed. Call
Shawn. He has decades of experience with
Snohomish area plumbing problems. His
phone number is (425) 367-4744.

Make Way…There’s a Backflow Problem.
That can bring a household to a screeching halt! There are two main causes of backflow in
plumbing – back pressure and back siphonage.
Back pressure is defined as water being forced to flow in the opposite
direction. Back siphonage might be more
complicated. It occurs when the pressure
in the water supply becomes smaller than the pressure in the plumbing system.
The most important thing is how is it prevented? Here are some tips –
1. Have a hose bib
backflow preventer
2. Have a vacuum
breaker that constantly monitors water pressure in the system
3. Something called a
barometric loop shaped like an inverted U
Now, what about fixing the problem if it occurs. That’s easy!
Call backflow expert Shawn Allen.
Shawn is the owner of Allen Plumbing here in Snohomish and he serves all
of the Seattle area’s plumbing needs.
Visit www.plumbersnohomish.com for a list of all services, then give
Shawn a call for whichever one you need at (425) 367-4744.
