Expert Drain Cleaning Services
Everyday activities like cooking, showering, and washing up can lead to clogged drains as food debris, cooking grease, soap scum, and hair accumulate in pipes. Over time, these obstructions slow water flow and may cause backups and water damage. Additionally, unexpected situations, such as tree roots breaking through pipes or mineral buildup from hard water, can block drains and require professionalĀ attention.
There are several signs that your plumbing system could benefit from professional drain cleaning.
- Recurring shower or toilet clogs
- Unpleasant smells
- Gurgling sounds
- Multiple slow drains
When you schedule drain cleaning with Drain Doctor Plumbing & Rooter, our expert plumbers will begin by thoroughly assessing your plumbing system. We use non-invasive techniques, such as video camera inspections, to identify the location and cause of blockages.
After determining the cause of the problem, we’ll use hydro-jetting and other methods to clear obstructions and restore proper wastewater flow. Hydro-jetting works by sending a high-pressure stream of water through your pipes, which helps break up and wash away stubborn clogs, grease, soap scum, and other debris. The powerful water pressure is capable of clearing even the toughest blockages, and it also helps to clean the walls of your pipes, preventing future buildup.
Augers are another method that is suitable for removing many types of clogs from your drains and, sometimes, sewer lines. Alternatively, descaling is a good solution to clear hard water deposits from your plumbing. This builds up and contributes both to clogs in drains and malfunctioning appliances.
After the professional drain cleaning is complete, we’ll provide specific recommendations to help prevent future clogs, like installing drain screens and scheduling annual cleaning to maintain your plumbing system. We may also suggest installing a water softener if you have hard water, as it can help prevent mineral buildup and prolong the life of your pipes.
