Meridian Drain Cleaning Team
Our drain cleaning service begins with a visual inspection. We may want to know if you’re experiencing any plumbing concerns, like slow drains, bad smells, or leaks. A camera inspection can provide information regarding where clogs may be present and how severe they are.
The process of cleaning your drains includes professional equipment like drain snakes or augers. These tools can break up any material in your pipes and drains. Hydrojetting is another process that uses strong jets of water to break apart clogs. Manual tools, like plungers, may be an option for small clogs.
There are several benefits of scheduling a professional drain cleaning.
- Preventing clogs
- Removing blockages
- Protecting plumbing
- Ensuring drain speed
- Increasing property value
We advise that you avoid using chemical drain cleaners to try and prevent clogs. These products can be very damaging to your plumbing system, destroying pipes.
Once the cleaning process is complete, our professional Meridian plumbers will confirm your pipes are clear. You will want to be proactive about preventing future issues. Avoid putting items down your drains that shouldn’t be there. This includes large scraps of food, grease, oils, and garbage. Don’t put large, non-compliant items down your garbage disposal, like fibrous foods. Fibrous foods include corn husks and celery. Very starchy foods, like rice and pasta, can expand when they absorb water, creating a clog. Eggshells, metal, and paper are also items to avoid putting down your drain.
As for your toilet, the only things that should go down your toilet are waste material and septic-safe toilet paper. Do not flush personal hygiene products or body wipes, even if the labels say they’re safe to flush down the toilet.
