What Are the Worst Things for Your Drains?

Drains in your bathroom, kitchen, and front yard can all fall victim to blockages, but some culprits are more problematic than others. Here’s a rundown of what you need to avoid to keep your drains healthy:

Bathroom Drains

Hair, soap scum, and toothpaste are common offenders. If you’re not careful, these materials can build up over time, creating blockages. Adding in wet wipes or sanitary products only makes the situation worse, as they don’t break down like toilet paper.

Kitchen Drains

Grease, food scraps, and cooking oil are common causes of blockages. When grease cools down, it solidifies inside the pipes, making it difficult for water to flow freely. Make sure to dispose of fats, oils, and food waste properly to avoid this.

Quick Tip:

Install drain covers or strainers to catch debris before it gets into your pipes. This simple step can save you from major headaches down the road.

Backed by Cutting-Edge Technology for Drains

When you call Plumb Professor for a blocked drain, you’re not just getting any old plumber. We invest in state-of-the-art technology to diagnose and clear blockages with precision and efficiency. Here’s how we use technology to ensure your drains are working like new:

CTV Drain Inspections

Our high-definition cameras allow us to inspect the inside of your pipes, pinpointing the exact location of the blockage or damage. Whether it’s tree roots, a collapsed pipe, or debris buildup, we can find it all with ease.

Hydrojetting

If your blockage is tough, we use high-pressure water jetting to blast away grease, debris, and tree roots, leaving your pipes clear and ready to go. It’s a safe and effective method that won’t harm your pipes.

Pipe Relining

Rather than digging up your entire yard to replace broken pipes, we can reline them without disruption. This non-invasive process restores your pipes’ integrity, saving you time and money.

With our cutting-edge tools, we can clear even the toughest blockages quickly and efficiently, ensuring your drains are back to full function in no time.

When Should You Call Plumb Professor for Blocked Drains?

While regular maintenance can help prevent most blockages, there are times when you’ll need professional help. Here are some signs it’s time to call us:

Slow Drains

If water is draining slowly from your sinks, tubs, or toilets, it could be a sign of a blockage further down the line.

Gurgling Sounds

If you hear gurgling sounds from your drains, it’s often a sign that air is trapped due to a partial blockage.

Foul Odours

A bad smell coming from your drains or the bathroom can indicate a blockage that’s starting to decompose.

Water Backing Up

If water starts backing up into your sinks, tubs, or toilets, it’s time to call for help immediately to avoid a sewer backup.
