Regular service can keep your main line healthy and reduce issues. Contact Home Service Doctors for an inspection and main sewer line snaking service for your Fairfax home.
Signs You Need Main Line Snaking
Problems with sewers can escalate quickly into disastrous situations. Knowing the common signs can help you schedule an inspection and professional cleaning before you have sewage backing up into your home.
Multiple household drains that run slowly represent one of the most significant signs. Other signs indicating a need to clean your main line include these:
- Water backing up in multiple locations
- Foul odors from drains
- Gurgling toiletsSewage near the cleanout access
- Clogs in fixtures that keep returning
- Water backing up into sinks, tubs, and drains
If you don’t get your main line cleaned when experiencing these issues, the excess pressure can break and collapse the pipes. Your yard may eventually become flooded, leading to health problems due to sewage exposure.
Our Sewer Line Clearing Process
Many homeowners worry that snaking will disrupt their life or damage their main line. Our clog removal process will put your mind at ease. When you contact us for clog removal, we first examine your main line through a small inspection camera. Inserted through the access point, this device lets us see clogs and other problems in your mainline in real time.
Through this process, we can accurately detect where your clog is for quick and easy removal. You’ll also get insight into the health of your main line so that you can schedule proactive maintenance or repairs.Â
We want to provide you with long-term solutions for your main line, not temporary results.
The snake or auger our plumbers use to clean drains involves a flexible cable inserted into the affected line. An auger head shaped like a corkscrew bores into the blockage and pushes it down the main line and out into the municipal system.Â
Instead of immediately resorting to hydro jetting, plumber’s snakes represent a practical first step in cleaning clogs from main lines. Truck-mounted drum snakes placed on a cable up to 100 feet can effectively break up minor tree root intrusions and similar problems. Our drain and mainline cleaning experts have the proper tools to do the job quickly.
