  The Hazards of Putting Building Debris in Drains

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

Large pieces can immediately block pipes, stopping water flow and causing expensive repairs. Even tiny bits can adhere to pipes and gradually form bigger blockages that are hard to clear. As these accumulate, they can restrict water flow and result in leaks or drain failures.

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