Drains are supposed to, well, drain. It’s right there in the name, right?
But what happens when your drain is clogged? Grab the plunger, sure. And sometimes that will solve the problem.
But if it doesn’t, call an experienced nearby plumber…call London Plumbing Solutions. We’re your top drain cleaning service in London, and we’ll be there to keep the water flowing clean and clear.
Take a look below at some of our clogged drain cleaning services.
Sometimes, it’s enough to just clean a drain. But if you have a particularly stubborn drain, it might be helpful to do a camera drain inspection. We’ll find out what’s clogging your drain and let you know how best to deal with it.
Got a clogged toilet? A clogged kitchen or bathroom sink? Is your tub or shower sitting with water after you’re done? London Plumbing Solutions has the know how you need to clear your drains and get them flowing again.
If you’ve tried a drain snake and it’s just not cutting it, hydro jetting might do the trick. It’s a high pressure water jet sent down your drain to clean out the gunk. At London Plumbing Solutions, we offer hydro jet services.
What Causes A Clogged Drain?
Sometimes, the cause of a clogged drain is obvious, but not always.
Hair is a common cause, which is likely not surprising to anybody who has longer hair (or lives in a house with someone who does).
But there are many other causes as well.
Human waste, liquids, and toilet paper should be the only things to flush down your toilet.
Tree Root Clogged Drain Clearing
Tree roots can grow into your pipes. Their job is to seek out water, after all, and the condensation that builds up on the side of your pipes is a great source.
This is especially true if you have a cracked or leaky pipe. Even the tiniest leaky pipe can get much larger as a tree root worms its way in.
Flushable Wipe Clogged Drain Clearing
Things labeled “flushable” are also common causes as well. Baby wipes, cat litter, and even menstrual products are sometimes labeled “flushable”, but they really should not be flushed.
Drain Cleaning Service For Grease Traps
Cooking fats, oils, and grease might look like liquid when it goes down your drain, but it can stick to the walls of your pipes. And since oil and water don’t mix, running your drain won’t take it away. This can cause other bits to get stuck in the grease, creating a buildup.
Other Clogged Drain Causes
There are plenty of other things that can cause clogged drains as well, including:
- Flushed toys
- Soap scum
- Dead skin cells
- Jewelry
- Dental floss
- Condoms
- Food bits
- Leaves
- Sticks
- Dirt
- Small animals
- And more
But if you have a clogged drain you can’t clear, call London Plumbing Solutions.
