Outstanding drain cleaning services in London, ON
Every homeowner in Southwestern Ontario regularly encounters light clogs. Often, they are formed due to garbage like hair, dirt, toilet paper, soap, food particles, and other minor objects, which negatively affect the purity of your pipes. How can frequent blockages be prevented? Regular maintenance and camera inspection in tandem can become your reliable protection against sudden clogs, which often grow into significant leakages. At Superior Plumbing & Heating, we have a one-stop solution – professional drain cleaning in London, Ontario, at a reasonable price!
We offer professional assistance, the essence of which is to provide such services as hydro-jetting and drain snaking. Sometimes, if the clog is small and shallow, it may be enough to use practical DIY cleaning procedures to get rid of it. However, unlike the widely used DIY methods by many homeowners, professional techniques will not only be selected based on preliminary inspection, which will show the state of your plumbing but also performed by licensed specialists.
Hydro-jetting
During hydro-jetting, hot, high-pressure water is pushed via a hose and out of a tiny nozzle by a motorized device called a hydro-jetter. The water from the hose may melt away obstructions and flush out grease and oil that have built up in the pipe as it is lowered down the drain.
Moreover, this cleaning equipment, which uses just water, is safer for the environment than commercial drain cleaners since it eliminates the possibility of contamination and advanced corrosion. Additionally, compared to conventional methods, hydro jetting effectively removes this scum layer from the interior of your pipes, reducing the risk of future blockages from hair and food particles, so it is preventive.
Drain snaking
In turn, if your lines are old and it is impossible to use this procedure, our specialist can bring a more traditional cleaning method – drain snaking. Like a long corkscrew, a drain snake works by sending a coil of wire down a drain pipe, where it bores into any obstructions and pulls up or splits them. Usually, we apply this method to fix sinks and toilets clogged by tissue, hair, etc.
Be sure your pipes will not be damaged – 10 years of our expert`s experience combined with up-to-date augers will allow us to remove stubborn clogs up to 300 mm in diameter using a snake in a blink of an eye!
How to tell if your sewer line is clogged?
You need to understand the dangers of a clogged drain leading to sewer backup. Wastewater poses a health risk to humans and animals because of the viruses, bacteria, and other toxins it may carry. Dangerous microorganisms, protozoa, and pesticides are present in wastewater as well.
Moreover, property damage is another possible outcome of a sewage blockage. Water damage manifests itself in various ways, including the typical spots on your walls and floors, as well as damaged insulation and flooring materials that are completely unusable. In such a way, you will most likely require a sewer restoration since your pipes have been damaged.
Below are the main tell-tale signs that your sewer line is clogged:
- Water backs up in random places. For example, water backs up into a shower when the toilet flushes. Or, you may notice that your toilet starts to overflow after your washing machine starts running. It happens most likely due to a clog in the main sewer line. When there’s a blockage in the main sewage line, all the wastewater in your house can’t escape, and it begins to rise in other drain lines. That is why calling a drain cleaning company in this situation appeared to be a win-win decision.
- Sewage is coming up from floor drains. As in the previous case, clogged main sewer lines prevent the flow of sewage and other wastewater from being carried away. The sewage will finally find its way into a secondary drain, back up out of floor drains and fill the air with a foul odour.
- Multiple drains are clogged. Since the drains from the sink, toilet or bathtub are connected to the main sewage line, any clogs in the main line can cause backups in other fixtures. Moreover, bubbling and slow operating drain may indicate such a problem. Sooner or later, you might as well smell the sewer at the house.
What to do if you notice these symptoms at your home? The DIY methods will be highly ineffective in these situations because they are designed for minor clogs. Instead, rely on us to handle the most challenging tasks efficiently!
