Greetings!
Christmas is just a few short days away. Have you gotten all of your shopping done and gifts wrapped? Hopefully so, but there is still time if you haven't.
I will be the last one to consider plumbing work a gift, but I have discounts listed below for those that may need work done. Call this the Heffner Plumbing stimulus package. And yes, this can be a bi-partisan effort where this offer can be shared on both sides of the aisle. As long as your money is good, I really don't care what political party you belong to. Small businesses are the backbone of the economy. Do what you can to support all of the small businesses out there that you possibly can. And by the way, feel free to forward this e-mail to 50 of your closest friends! :-)

Are you a snowbird or know someone that is?
|
|
I have several customers that are snowbirds that either head south to Florida or west to Arizona during the winter months. My advice to them or anyone that is leaving their house for just a few days or several months is to turn the water off to the house. A response I get sometimes is "Uncle Ray comes over to check the house everyday to make sure that all's well." Unfortunately, water leaks don't always wait around for Uncle Ray to show up. A burst washing machine hose can dump up to 500 gallons of water an hour into a house which can do a significant amount of damage in a short period of time. Turn the water off at the main shut-off valve and drain the house down to the lowest point. The reason for this is that if you lose electricity in the dead of winter and there is still water in the pipes, those pipes can freeze and burst. Not sure how to do this? Give me a call and I would be happy to explain this over the phone.
If you ever have a water leak that has gotten into the sub-floor, walls or ceiling, call your insurance agent and then a professional water damage company. Water damage is not child's play and if not handled in the correct manner, can do more harm than good intentions, a wet/dray vac and some fans could ever do.
