Drain Cleaning

Your drains are an essential part of your home plumbing system. From the shower to the dishwasher to the basement, drains provide convenient outlets for waste water to empty into your sewer system and out of your home. The only time you even notice your drains is when something goes wrong, like a nasty clog.

While some clogs are caused by a single object that slips down a drain, most are caused by deposits that build up over time to line pipe walls and cause clogs. The best way to prevent these clogs is with regular cleaning to keep drains clear. Of course, we know that not everyone has diligently kept up with drain maintenance, so it’s important to call for professional drain cleaning at the first sign of trouble. Either way, the Dallas area drain cleaning technicians at Dial One Johnson Plumbing have the expertise needed to keep your drains flowing freely. Whether routine maintenance, cleaning, or an emergency removal of a heavy clog, we can make sure any drain we encounter is running smoothly before we leave.

Regular Drain Cleaning

Each year, you should have your drains inspected as part of a regular plumbing maintenance routine. During an inspection, we’ll come to your home and perform a number of maintenance tasks, including some targeted at your drainage system.

We’ll start by inspecting and cleaning the drains and drainage lines around your home. The most heavily used drains, like those in the bathtub and the kitchen sink usually need special attention. A thorough inspection also includes snaking a specialized camera into the main sewer line to check for any buildup in there as well. If necessary, these deposits can be cleared using a number of different technologies.

These routine cleanings are a good first step to ensuring your drains are up to snuff, but down the road you still may run into the occasional sticky situation with a tough clog.

Clearing Out Clogged Drains

When nasty clogs crop up out of nowhere, it can be a real pain. Often, these clogs are lodged deep down in the drain line coming off your sink or bathtub, making them very difficult to reach on your own. Call in us right away to have it dealt with, so you can go on with your life and not face larger problems down the road.

When we come to your home to deal with a clogged drain, we’ll clean your drains using one of our proven methods. Depending on where the clog is and what it turns out to be made of, one type of cleaning may work better than another. For simpler clogs like the common ones in your kitchen or bathroom, a pipe snake will often do the trick. A snake is long flexible piece of metal or plastic with a catch on the end. This gets “snaked” down the drain until it catches the clog, and then is pulled back up with the clog in tow.

In some circumstances, your main sewer line may even get clogged and need to be cleaned. In these situations, high pressure water jetting is usually a good option. It is quick, safe and doesn’t involve taking apart a messy sewer line. Plus, the high pressure stream can handle even the most stubborn clogs.

The Dallas, Texas area drain cleaning technicians at Dial One Plumbing have been cleaning drains of all shapes and sizes for many years and have the skills and tools needed to clear even the worst blockages. Whether you are confronting a particularly bad clog or you just want a routine cleaning to make sure everything is in order, give us a call today.
