What is Complete Drain Care?
This is a comprehensive approach to maintaining, cleaning, and ensuring the proper functioning of your home's drainage system. It typically involves a combination of services designed to keep your drains and plumbing in optimal condition, preventing clogs and costly repairs. Here's what complete drain care might include:
-
Regular Drain Cleaning: Periodic cleaning removes grease, food particles, soap scum, hair, and other debris that can build up and cause blockages. This can involve using drain snakes, hydrojetting, or chemical treatments (though the latter is less common now due to environmental concerns).
-
Inspection: Camera inspections (like the one mentioned before) to identify hidden problems inside the pipes, such as cracks, tree root intrusion, or buildup that might lead to future blockages or damage.
-
Preventative Maintenance: This includes advice and actions like installing drain strainers, using safe cleaning products to avoid pipe damage, or recommending regular maintenance schedules to avoid unexpected issues.
-
Drain Repairs and Replacements: If an issue is identified, complete drain care often involves offering solutions to repair or replace damaged pipes, fix leaks, or address root intrusion.
-
Clog Removal: If your drain is clogged, complete drain care involves identifying the cause and clearing the blockage effectively, either by snaking the drain, hydrojetting, or other methods.
-
Odor and Bacteria Control: Sometimes, drains can develop unpleasant odors or harbor bacteria. Part of complete care includes addressing these issues, often through cleaning, treatments, or enzyme-based solutions to eliminate build-up.
By combining these services, complete drain care helps extend the life of your plumbing, avoid emergencies, and maintain a smooth-running drainage system. It's a proactive approach to keeping drains flowing freely and preventing the need for major repairs down the line.
