Methods We Use To Unblock Drains
Our expert drainage plumbers employ the use of various tools in unblocking your pipes and drains.
Drain Machine
Drain machines utilize a rotating cable with “teeth” or blades at the end of the line. When the plumbing technician pushes the cable down a drain line, the rotating teeth on the machine scours or cuts through everything in its path till the whole length of the drain line is clean. Cutter heads come in different varieties, and the type of cutter head used for a particular job will depend on the severity of blockage on the drain.
The drain machine also comes in different sizes which can be used based on the length and the size of the drain that needs to be cleaned. They are compact enough to fit indoors in virtually all situations. When it comes to scrubbing old cast and galvanized iron drains in order to remove hard deposits or rust, these machines can be ideal too. In addition to that, they are perfect for cutting roots and removing cement or concrete without leaving any mess or spillage behind.
Water Jetting
This is a tool that has a distinctive drain-cleaning nozzle attached to the end of a long flexible hose. When it is fed down a drain, the nozzle emits very high-pressure water jets which blasts away everything in its path while thrusting the hose down a drain.
Hoses and nozzles come in different designs and sizes depending on the type of obstruction that we’re trying to remove, and also to fit a particular drain size. Water jetting is perfect for areas with limited access and efficient at long distances. They can also be used indoors without bringing about any mess or troubles.
Types of Blocked Drains and Pipes
Due to use, it’s possible that your drains will clog over time. This will cause them to run increasingly slower with time. Stuff like detergents, soap, grease, and fats usually build up in the inner walls of your pipes and this accumulation will ultimately lead to a blockage. Our drainage plumbing technicians will utilize the necessary tools to break down the clog and get rid of all the remnants, thereby clearing up the blocked drains within a short time.
Shower drains – these have their own challenges. Soap buildup combined with hair in the drain pipe and trap are the usual causes of a clogged shower drain. A skilled plumbing technician with experience in shower repairs will normally clean the drain and get rid of the debris through the use of a machine, thus restoring the drain to a nearly-new condition.
Bathroom sink drains – these could become clogged by debris such as hair, toothpaste, grime, and soap. Our expert technicians offer a lot of plumbing services for the bathroom, so clogged drains is one of the more prevalent issues we face and resolve. We will take out the clog, clear the drain and reinstate your pipes.
Toilet drains – these can be blocked by things like excess toilet paper, and occasionally kids’ toys. What we do to fix blocked toilet drains is to utilize a machine that feeds a spinning cable through the toilet drain. There are special spring-loaded blades on the tip of the cable that will cut through and get rid of all blockages. These blades stay near the inside walls of the blocked drain, giving it a thorough clean to reinstate its powerful flushes and full functions.
Floor drains – blockage of floor drains will usually occur in laundry rooms, basements, and garages. There is also a likelihood that older bathrooms, driveways, and patios will have a problem with blocked floor drains. There is usually a trap on the pipes which needs to be filled with water at all times to reduce the escape of sewer gasses and odors. It’s important to put the drains through intermittent tests to make sure that they are not clogged and can carry water to prevent flooding. When dirt and debris clog floor drains, our plumbers are always on hand to open them up and restore good drainage.
