Signs Your Drain Needs Cleaning

You may be unsure, as a homeowner, whether or not your clogged drain is worthy of calling in a professional. Not to worry—we’ve put together a list of common signs that indicate you should consider drain cleaning services in your Berkeley, CA home. If you’re still not sure, feel free to contact us, and we’ll help you decide.

Pests Around Drain

Any time you see a group of flies or other pests swarming near your drain, that’s a surefire sign that there is food or other waste clogging your drain. It’s best you get an expert to assess and remedy the situation.

Drain Clogs Frequently

The more often your drains are clogging despite your best efforts, the more likely it is that you need assistance to clear your drains more intensely. We offer a variety of methods that are sure to do the trick, including hydro jetting and drain snaking.

Slow Draining

If it takes the water a long time to drain from the basin after you shower, bathe, or even wash your hands, that is a sign of a clog that needs to be addressed.

Toilet Problems

Paying attention to your toilet can also alert you to the existence of a serious clog in your pipes or sewer line. Look out for an overflowing toilet, lack of refilling post-flush, and any unusual sounds.

Bad Odors

Sometimes a clogged drain can be smelly. This is because waste and debris builds up in pipes and then starts to decay. We can help resolve this nuisance with our drain cleaning services.

Strange Noises

If you hear bubbling or gurgling during the draining, that also indicates that a blockage is present. This type of blockage should be investigated by a professional.

Drain Cleaning Methods

When it comes to drain cleaning, the types can be broken out into a few common methods:

How We Use Drain Camera Inspection

Drain camera inspection is an important tool used by our team to be able to figure out exactly where your clog is located. We send a waterproof camera down your pipes or into your sewer line to see with our own eyes what is clogging your drain and if there are any signs of damage. This allows us to zero in on the clog and formulate a response that will be more effective in treating it.
