April 25th is National Hug a Plumber Day, and it’s time to show our plumbers some much deserved appreciation!
5 Ways to Show Your Plumber Appreciation:
Treat them to a nice meal, whether it’s with breakfast to begin their day, a potluck lunch, or with reservations at a restaurant.
Remind our plumbers about everything they do for us and for society through thank you cards and handwritten notes:
Thank you for doing the dirty work so we don’t have to.
Thank you for being there when we need you day of the year.
Thank you for providing us access to clean water.
Create “Plumber Goodie Bags” including items a plumber out in the field could find useful every day:
Reusable water bottle
Granola Bars
Sunglasses
Small bottle of sunscreen
Small portable fan
Cooling Towel
Take care of your home’s plumbing system! Follow basic plumbing advice like avoid flushing paper towels down the toilet and use a screen or drain-gate to minimize blockages caused by hair and soap scum. Your plumber will appreciate these precautions and it will make his job and your life easier!
Schedule a whole-house plumbing inspection once every six months to a year! This will help keep your home up-to-date and your water flowing.
Without plumbers, we wouldn’t have access to a hot shower in the morning or hands free and efficient waste disposal. So thank the plumbers in your life and let them know you appreciate them!
