Time for a New Shower.

That sounds like a great idea for your Chattanooga area home, doesn’t it? Learning how to install a shower surround directly to wall studs is a project many DIY homeowners in the area may think they can do themselves, but think twice. Panels formed as a single moulded unit fit in the bathtub or shower enclosure and are typically used in new construction.

The other type of shower panels, that are often used in bathroom renovations, come as individual panels that connect together and attach to the wall which will form a watertight seal. Of course, you must remove the old shower to make room. You must also pre-fit the shower and mark then drill holes for the valves. That is only the beginning!

Spring Weather is Sump Pump Weather.

Chattanooga area weather is unpredictable. It can go from sunshine to pouring rain in an instant. Now is the time to prepare your home for an influx of water. For homeowners that have been down that path before, they know that water damage is no joke. A couple of rainy days could lead to thousands of dollars in repairs and restorations.

Here are some tips to prepare your sump pump for spring –

1.  Check around the base for debris.

2.  The float switch detects when the water level gets too high.

3.  Inspect the check valve located on the discharge line.

4.  Thoroughly clean the inlet screen.

5.  Make sure the power cord is not damaged in some way.
