TikTok is a treasure trove of life hacks and quick fixes, but when it comes to plumbing, some of those "brilliant ideas" can lead to disastrous consequences. Here are the top “Lies TikTok Told Me About Plumbing” and why you should call Easy Breezy Plumbing instead.
Lie #1: Lemons Clean Your Garbage Disposal Perfectly!
TikTok shows people tossing whole lemons into the garbage disposal to clean and freshen it up. The truth? Lemons can dull the blades over time and may leave behind pulp that clogs your pipes.
What to do instead: Run cold water and use a small amount of dish soap or call Easy Breezy Plumbing for a professional tune-up. We’ll keep it smelling citrusy without the clogs!
Lie #2: Drain Cleaners Are the Ultimate Fix.
Chemical drain cleaners might clear clogs temporarily, but they can corrode your pipes over time, leading to costly repairs.
The Easy Breezy Way: We use safe and effective techniques like hydro-jetting to clear your drains without damaging them.
Lie #3: You Can Fix a Leak with Tape and Plastic Wrap.
Quick hacks like duct tape and plastic wrap only mask the problem. Leaks need professional attention to prevent water damage and skyrocketing bills.
Let Easy Breezy Do It: We offer fast and affordable leak repairs that get to the root of the issue—no duct tape required.
Lie #4: Flushable Wipes Are Fine for Plumbing.
Despite the name, “flushable” wipes don’t dissolve like toilet paper. They can cause major blockages in your system.
Pro Tip: Stick to toilet paper, and if it’s too late, our Easy Breezy team can clear those clogs fast.
Lie #5: Hot Grease Down the Sink? No Problem if You Follow with Hot Water.
Hot grease might go down, but as it cools, it solidifies and clogs pipes.
Our Solution: Never pour grease down the drain! Call Easy Breezy Plumbing for expert advice and grease-trap solutions.
