A customer recently installed a new bathroom vanity themselves, and shortly thereafter detected a strange smell coming from the drain.

The culprit?

Those flexible "accordion" pipes at the hardware store might seem like a cool idea, but their ridges trap gunk, cause clogs, and often siphon away the water barrier that keeps sewer gases out of your home.

Proper drainage requires precise angles, correct trap sizing, and proper venting. If your DIY remodel is acting up, Action Plumbing can get your lines piped to code in no time! 🛠️

There's nothing better than washing off the sand and salt in an outdoor shower! But because they're exposed to the elements, they need a little extra love to keep from going rogue. Keep an eye out for these common outdoor shower culprits:

💧Low water pressure (often caused by mineral buildup or a hidden leak)

⛱ Slow drainage (sand and hair are major culprits here)

💲Leaking fixtures or handles that waste water and hike up your bill

If your outdoor shower is acting up, don't sweat it. Give Action Plumbing a call and we’ll have it running perfectly for your next beach day! https://actionplumbingobx.com/services/outdoor-showers/

Clear the drains: Give them a quick check to ensure everything flows smoothly.
