Slow drains aren't just annoying—they indicate buildups that reduce your entire plumbing system's efficiency. Professional drain cleaning restores fast, smooth water flow. Hair, soap residue, grease, and mineral deposits narrow pipes over time. This restricts flow, causes backups, and strains your plumbing. Hydro jetting removes these obstructions completely, restoring full pipe diameter. Benefits include faster drainage, reduced water usage, eliminated odors, and prevented future clogs. Regular maintenance every 1-2 years keeps your system running optimally. Wood's Plumbing offers comprehensive drain cleaning with camera inspection to identify problem areas.
Frequently Asked Questions About Drain Cleaning
How often should drains be professionally cleaned?
Most homes benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1-2 years. Homes with frequent clogs, older pipes, or heavy usage may need annual cleaning to prevent backups and maintain optimal flow.
Is chemical drain cleaner safe to use?
Chemical drain cleaners can damage pipes and provide only temporary relief. Professional hydro jetting is safer and more effective, removing buildup completely without harming your plumbing system.
What causes recurring drain clogs?
Recurring clogs are often caused by partial blockages deep in your drain lines, tree root intrusion, pipe damage, or buildup that wasn't fully cleared. Professional camera inspection can identify the root cause.
