Drain Cleaning Services For A Clogged Drain
Clogged drains are a common household nuisance, and when left unaddressed, they can lead to more significant plumbing issues. Our professional drain cleaning services are designed to effectively remove blockages, restore proper drainage, and prevent future problems.
Common Causes of A Clogged Drain
-
Hair: A primary culprit in bathroom drains, hair can bind with soap scum and other debris to form stubborn clogs.
-
Grease and Food Particles: Often found in kitchen drains, grease hardens as it cools, sticking to pipe walls and trapping food waste.
-
Soap Scum: Mineral deposits and soap residue can build up over time, narrowing pipes and impeding water flow.
-
Foreign Objects: Accidental flushing of small items can cause immediate and severe blockages.
​
Tree Roots: In outdoor or underground pipes, tree roots can infiltrate cracks and grow, obstructing the pipeline.
Our Drain Cleaning Process
We utilize a variety of advanced techniques and equipment to ensure thorough and long-lasting drain cleaning:
-
Diagnosis: Our technicians begin by accurately identifying the location and nature of the clog using camera inspections and other diagnostic tools. This helps us choose the most effective cleaning method.
-
Snaking/Augering: For many common clogs, a plumber's snake or auger is used to physically break apart or retrieve the obstruction.
-
Enzyme Cleaners (Preventative): For ongoing maintenance and to prevent future clogs, we can recommend and apply eco-friendly enzyme cleaners that break down organic matter.
-
