ORLANDO DRAIN SERVICES
Almost 70 Years of Premium Plumbing Services in Central Florida
Drains are the gateway between your home's wastewater and the public sewage system. You want your drains to be completely clear at all times-keeping your pipes and fixtures clean and completely sanitary. If you don't, the result could be inconvenient at best, and repulsive at worst. If you're a food service business or own a commercial building, the results could be even more costly.
Call (407) 890-0116 to let us service your drains today! Our technicians are available 24/7 to handle any drain issues you might have.
Causes of Clogged Drains
In addition to water, what flows through your drains often includes hair, soap residue, grease, oils, food waste, and minerals (if you have a hard water issue). Over time, these oils and residues harden into a greasy blockage, which slows the flow of water out of your drains. Given enough time and enough debris, the flow of water could stop completely. When this happens, your drains may begin exhibiting the following symptoms.
Signs of a Blocked Drain:
- Your toilets are backing up, overflowing, or not flushing properly
- The water in your sinks, toilets, and shower take longer to drain completely
- Your drains are starting to emit an unpleasant smell
- There is a decrease in your home’s water pressure
- Several drains throughout your home are clogged at the same time
- There are continual clogs in the same drain
While a professional service is the best way to deal with a blockage or clog, there are a few preventive measures you can take to help keep your drains clear for longer. Investing in a drain grate or screen, flushing your bathroom drains regularly, having cold water running when the garbage disposal is on, and being mindful of what goes down your drains are all steps you can take. However, as mentioned previously, even with precautions taken, a clog can still form and a plumber will need to be brought in.
How to Clear a Clogged Drain
In order to effectively clear your drains of any clogs, it’s best to bring in a professional plumber, who has the experience necessary to successfully clear them of any buildup. With different drain cleaning methods available, it's important to understand how each works.
Traditionally, There Are 3 Ways to Deal with a Drain Clog:
- Hydro-jetting
- Drain snakes
- Drain-clearing chemicals
While Brownie's will utilize whatever solution best suits your needs and your budget, each solution has specific benefits and drawbacks. For instance, drain augers (snakes) might clear your clog, but ultimately it only punches a hole through the debris-sometimes, it doesn't get rid of it for good. The results are immediate and affordable though. Drain cleaners are available off the shelf, but they're not effective on every kind of residue and can harm your pipes. Hydro-jetting is the most permanent solution with the least damage to your pipes.
