Frequently Asked Questions About Drain & Sewer Cleaning
How do I know if my sewer line is clogged?
You may notice gurgling sounds, multiple backed-up drains, or water pooling around floor drains. These signs point to a serious blockage in the main sewer line.
Are chemical drain cleaners safe to use?
No. Over-the-counter drain cleaners can damage your pipes and harm the environment. Professional cleaning is safer and more effective.
How often should I clean my drains?
We recommend annual cleaning for high-use homes and semi-annual cleaning for rental or commercial properties.
Can roots really grow into my sewer line?
Yes, especially in older clay or cast iron pipes. Our team can locate and clear root intrusions and offer long-term solutions like pipe lining or replacement.
