Saving Time And Money With Effective Pipe Repairs: What You Need To KnowDrain cleaning is one of those services that countless homeowners, landlords, and commercial property managers overlook – until they need it.
Encompassing the use of specialist techniques and industry-leading equipment, drain cleaning is used as a solution for blocked drains as well as in ongoing drain maintenance. It aims to keep drains in the best possible condition to facilitate everyday life and the routine use of internal plumbing systems, and can be adapted to cover small residential properties or vast commercial spaces.
Suffice to say, there are plenty of benefits associated with booking a drain cleaning service. But that doesn’t mean that clients don’t have questions about the service and how it works.
In this blog, we pulled together a team of drain cleaning London experts to answer all of the most common questions linked with this service and its benefits.
1. What does a professional drain cleaning service involve?
Cleaning your drains is an integral part of long term drain maintenance, ensuring that when you accidentally wash away fat and grease from the kitchen, or shampoo or stray hairs from the shower down the drain, your drain does not become blocked and damaged as a result.
Without a proper drain cleaning, blocked drains can fast become damaged – with the pipes cracking under the pressure of a build up or water or waste, caused by the blockage.
The cleaning combines leading innovative techniques with the best equipment, using flushing and drain jetting as well as the use of CCTV and other tools to identify, isolate, and rectify issues.
2. How long does drain cleaning take?
This depends on the state of your drains and when your last drain cleaning was – however, for the most part the service will not take any more than a few hours.
3. How do you know if you need drain cleaning services?
There are a couple of ways to answer this. On one hand, you know you need a drain cleaning and unblocked service if you experience one of the symptoms of a drainage issue – namely slow-draining plugs and sinks, gurgling pipes, and unpleasant aromas around waste and water sites.
On the other hand, we would argue that drain cleaning services are always recommended, regardless of whether you have experienced drainage issues or not. Drain cleaning is recommended as part of a long term approach to maintenance, ensuring that you don’t push your drains to the point where they need to be unblocked using brute force and high pressure water jets.
If you want to book a drain cleaning service or want to find out more about drain maintenance and how to keep your home or property’s plumbing in the best possible condition, don’t hesitate to reach out to your local team. They will be able to advise on the best service for you, and how to keep your drains fully operational and running seamlessly
