FAQs
Why should I avoid chemical drain cleaning products?
Chemical drain cleaning products generally won’t work once your drains are seriously clogged, even before considering their other drawbacks. Some drain cleaners can damage pipes, depending on their materials. You might also end up removing a bunch of accumulation from the walls of your pipe without clearing the clog, resulting in a much worse clog.
Is hydro jetting safe for old pipes?
Old pipes in good condition aren’t the issue. Hydro jetting is often safe even for old pipes, but we’ll always inspect your plumbing before we start because the high-pressure water jets can worsen issues from already damaged lines.
How can I prevent clogged drains in my bathroom?
To prevent clogged drains in your bathroom, it’s essential to avoid disposing of items known to cause blockages. Avoid flushing large amounts of toilet paper or feminine hygiene products. Install shower drain screens to catch hair and debris and clean them regularly. Also, consider having a plumbing professional perform a drain cleaning periodically to remove accumulated buildup and keep your drains flowing smoothly.
