The Hazards of Putting Building Debris in Drains

Properly disposing of building debris is vital for good plumbing. Never pour construction waste down the drain, including small particles and dust.

Large pieces can instantly block pipes, stopping water flow and causing expensive repairs. Even tiny bits can stick to pipes and slowly form bigger blockages that are hard to clear. As these build up, they can restrict water flow and lead to leaks or drain failures.

To prevent this, use proper waste bins for building debris or hire professionals to handle disposal safely.
