Spotting Drain Problems Before They Become Disasters

When your drains or pipes become clogged, they give off several indications that they need attention. If you notice any of the following signs, contact a professional plumber in Arlington, VA, right away:

  • Slow drainage
  • Pest infestation
  • Gurgling noises
  • Water backups
  • Standing water near the drains
  • Wet or greener patches in the yard
  • Bad odors coming from the drains
  • High water bills
  • Frequent clogging

 

Professional drain cleaning services keep your drains running efficiently. Regularly scheduled cleanings help prevent sewer line problems and protect your property from extensive water damage. Additionally, it helps stop backups and unsanitary conditions that can cause health problems, such as skin rashes. By eliminating buildup and removing debris from your drains, you can also eliminate unpleasant smells and prevent pest infestations. This is especially important for homes with pets or small children who may be more vulnerable to these types of problems.

The Usual Suspects: What’s Really Clogging Your Drains?

One of the best ways to avoid a clogged drain is to learn what causes clogs in the first place. Buildup commonly occurs when dirt, minerals, and other debris accumulate in your sewer line. Grease, oil, and food scraps often clog kitchen drains. Products like face wipes, paper towels, cotton swabs, and tampons flushed down the toilet can also cause obstructions over time. They tend to absorb water, restricting water flow. Moreover, your bathroom drains can become clogged when hair and residue from body wash, soap, and shampoo accumulate over time.

Our Streamlined Approach to Drain Cleaning

Our experts will come to your home and assess the condition of your drains and the severity of the clog. We have professional-grade equipment to access even the deepest stoppages. Once we locate the clog, we’ll determine the most appropriate cleaning method. Drain snaking is the method we frequently use, mainly if the main goal is to clear away small debris and restore water flow quickly. Our professional-grade augers are gentle on porcelain surfaces like toilets but tough on substances clogging your drains.

If you’re dealing with tough pipe blockages, such as mineral buildup and tree roots, our team will use hydro jetting to restore normal flow. This eco-friendly cleaning method uses pressurized water to clean and scour the interior surfaces of the pipe. The debris then gets washed down the pipeline and flushed from your plumbing.
