Water drain lines through out your home, carry gray water and sewage out to the sewer. Drain cleaning is key in keeping your lines clear and flowing as part of a healthy home. Most people often ignore their pipes and drains until something goes wrong. At this point, it’s too late. Dirty, smelly and bacteria filled water has already soaked your floors, and perhaps your walls. The damage is already done.
Happy, Healthy Pipes!
Checking your pipes for visible leaks is simple home repair and great preventative maintenance. Spotting a problem before hand is the best way for residents to keep their home healthy, and keep unexpected repairs at bay. Pipes throughout your whole house take waster water from sinks, toilets and showers through the yard, and eventually leading it to your septic system, or city sewer connection. It is important to keep all these plumbing lines clean, and your drains flowing well. More importantly, being aware of the main drain lines to the street and whether or not they are flowing properly. This is where an inspection by a professional is vital.
Quick flowing water that goes straight down the drain is a sign that your drains are working well. Eventually these drain lines get clogged up with the accumulation of soap scum, food, grease, hair, and even odds-and-ends that fall down the drain.

Key Benefits of Proper Maintenance
Preventative maintenance is even more effective; regular drain cleaning in homes can stop these drains from clogging, breeding bacteria, and eventually flooding homes. For the best prevention homeowners should have their bathtub, shower, and sink drains cleaned by a professional once each year.
Clogs do not happen only in the drains that lead directly from your plumbing fixtures, but also in your larger sewer lines. The plumbing fixture lines connect to larger plumbing sewer lines that run underneath the home, then out into the yard. These lines often become blocked by tree roots, resulting in sewage backing up into the home, usually through floor drains, in the lower level of the home.
This can be a serious problem, particularly for the older, more established neighborhoods where large trees, with established, far reaching root systems, are common.
Fortunately, with this type of blockage drain cleaning professionals can help, sending a rotating blade, called a snake, into your sewer lines, freeing trapped, accumulated debris, and removing tree roots from the lines.
