Two Days Before Thanksgiving: A Lakeland Stoppage Review
There is no good time for every drain in the house to stop, but two days before Thanksgiving - with family on the way and a kitchen about to work overtime - might be the worst. That is exactly when this Lakeland family called True Plumbers, and in this video the Perez family shares how the visit went.
Why the holidays are stoppage season
Plumbers genuinely call the day after Thanksgiving one of the busiest of the year, and the reasons are predictable: a kitchen producing its biggest meal, a disposal fed things it cannot handle, and a house full of guests doubling the load on every drain and toilet at once. A line that was 80 percent restricted all year picks this week to finish the job.
Holiday rules that keep the drains open
- Grease, oil, and pan drippings go in the trash, never the drain - hot liquid grease solidifies in the pipe
- The disposal cannot handle potato peels, celery, onion skins, rice, or bones; scrape plates into the trash
- Run cold water before, during, and after every disposal use
- Space out showers and laundry when the house is full - give the main line room to breathe
- Put a small trash can in the guest bath so wipes and cotton products stay out of the toilet
Catch it before the crowd arrives
Stoppages telegraph: a gurgle when the washer drains, a toilet that needs two flushes, a floor drain that burps. If your house is doing any of that in mid-November, a drain cleaning before the holiday is the cheapest insurance you will buy all season - and it is a scheduled visit instead of an emergency one.
