When to Book a Drain Repair

  • Slow drains: slow drainage is the first sign of clogging from grease, chemical, sediment, debris, and other waste buildups. This means that the pipes are blocked, which slows down the drains. Over time, slow drains can cause flooding and damage, which is more expensive to repair. Be careful about flushing oils and chemicals down the drain, as these can cause rust and deterioration.
  • Recurring clogs: if you find that you always need to have drains unclogged, it may be time to book a repair or an extensive checkup. Recurring clogs are a sign of larger drainage issues, which a drain repair can fix for good.
  • Multiple clogged drains: while kitchen and shower drains can clog once in a while, multiple clogged drains at the same time indicate a problem in the main system, instead of just the individual drains. Book a professional drain repair service to assess and fix the main system.
  • Foul odours and sewage backups: the most common signs of clogged drains — and a plumbing emergency — these result from debris lodged in the pipes over time, which can cause sewage backups and flooding as wastewater cannot flow.

Drain Repair Services

  • Kitchen: from food scraps to grease and oil, kitchen drains are prone to buildup and clogging. Think about better housekeeping practices, like keeping waste items from collecting in the drain, and book a drain repair for slow drainage and recurring clogs.
  • Washroom: soap, shampoo, and bath solutions look harmless and would flow down the drain easily, but combined with loose hair, residue from these products can easily clog the drain when not regularly cleaned. And while it’s good to keep a toilet plunger handy, bear in mind that if you can’t get through a few days or weeks without using it, it may be time to book a drain repair to fix it for good.
  • Main drain and sewer line: multiple and recurring clogged drains indicate a problem in the main drain. This can happen due to growing tree roots, ageing pipes, and waste buildup.
  • Drain leakage: leaking drains can cause flooding, water damage, and even mould, so make sure to book a professional drain repair at the first sign of leakage.
