Cartersville, GA - Thompson Plumbing, owned and operated by Cartersville native Brandon Thompson, has released a new blog post on the company’s website that gives homeowners simple and effective plumbing tips. The post, titled “12 Best Plumbing Tips for Homeowners to Prevent Costly Repairs,” helps readers take care of their plumbing systems with easy-to-follow advice based on real experience.
Brandon Thompson has built his Cartersville plumbing company by serving the community with reliable service and honest work. He understands that most plumbing problems start small and grow into expensive repairs when they are ignored. In this latest blog, he shares his own professional advice in a clear format that anyone can understand.
“Most of the jobs we take care of could have been avoided with just a little knowledge and upkeep,” Brandon said. “We wanted to give people that knowledge. That’s why we put this guide together. It’s about saving families money and stress.”
The blog explains why it is important to fix small leaks right away. Leaks often lead to water damage and mold if left untreated. The blog also reminds homeowners to pay attention to signs like slow drains, low water pressure, or strange noises. These are signs that plumbing problems are forming behind the scenes.
Thompson Plumbing recommends checking under sinks and behind appliances for moisture or stains. The blog explains that homeowners should know how to turn off their main water valve in case of an emergency. This simple step can reduce water damage if a pipe breaks.
Brandon also points out the damage that clogged drains can cause. “People often pour grease down the sink or flush things that don’t belong in a toilet,” he said. “Those things might go down at first, but they build up over time. Then the whole system gets blocked.”
The post gives readers clear steps to avoid clogs. It encourages the use of drain screens and warns against using chemical cleaners, which can weaken pipes. Instead, the blog recommends regular cleaning and using a plunger or hand auger when needed.
The blog also reminds readers to protect outdoor pipes and faucets during cold months. It stresses the need to shut off outdoor water lines and cover exposed pipes to prevent freezing and bursting. Brandon noted that frozen pipes cause some of the most expensive damage his team sees during the winter.
Another important tip in the blog is to watch the water heater. Homeowners are urged to check for signs of rust, leaks, or strange noises from their units. Routine checks and draining the tank yearly can extend the life of the system and prevent leaks.
Brandon also stresses the need for regular inspections, even if nothing seems wrong. “Plumbing problems often hide until it’s too late,” he said. “We can spot things early before they get worse. A quick check-up now can stop a disaster later.”
The blog finishes by encouraging homeowners to find a trusted plumber before problems occur. Thompson Plumbing promises fast service, honest prices, and local knowledge. The team is ready to help, whether the job is a small repair or a major issue.
Brandon said the blog is part of his ongoing goal to help the Cartersville community. “We don’t just fix pipes. We’re here to help people take care of their homes,” he said. “I was born and raised here, and we treat every customer like a neighbor.”
The full blog is available now on the company website. Thompson Plumbing encourages all homeowners in Cartersville and nearby areas to read the post and take simple steps today to avoid problems tomorrow.
