Ultimately there are different types of clogged drains. But today's focus will be on your sewer main line since this is a clog that is a homeowners, lets say, nastiest nightmare. Sewer mains are buried sometimes up to ten feet or more. Think about a typical day and evening in your household, of course the bigger the household the more abuse typically your sewer main will endure. So begin by thinking about everything you flush, or pour down your toilet, sink or shower where it goes when it leaves your house. Through that sewer pipe. So, sooner or later this nasty nightmare becomes a reality. These type of clogs look and smell horrible. In this situation the homeowner will need to beware of health issues. Your family could have some health risk due to bacterial contamination.
When dealing with raw sewage you are dealing with dangerous bacteria's and this means proper handling is of utmost importance because of the health hazard involved. In this situation I do not recommend the do-it-yourselfers, this is a job for a professional plumber with the knowledge and experience to handle even the worst drainage problems.
Knowing how your sewer main got clogged is always a plus for the homeowner. While every clog is different, by understanding how the clog happened could be very cost effective for you. If for example you know a child flushed something from a toilet inside the home the plumber will know where to begin. This can make a big difference in the ultimate cost of repair or replacement. Typically, there are a handful of solutions that can handle almost every situation. If you do not know what caused the clog in this type of situation it is good you know about your city or town's responsibility. For example, you may be dealing with a tree root on city or county property and not be responsible for any of the repairs!
The great thing about the professional plumbing industry is that now they also have Technology on their side. Your Plumber Technician now has the ability to inspect your sewer line by remote video cameras. By doing this the technician can determine whether a clog is your responsibility or the city's? If your home is on a sewer system with your local water or utility company clogs beyond your connection are the water or utility companies responsibility, not the homeowner. So with the remote video cameras your technician will know whether a clog is your responsibility or not. Then the next great thing is your professional plumber can then help you work with your city to get the repairs completed.
Lets take a look at some preventive measures as a homeowner to start implementing now to lesson the risk of clogs that begin from the interior of the home. Have you ever heard of cholesterol buildups that cling to peoples' arteries? Well, think of your drain system as though it were your arteries. If you pour oils and fats like bacon grease down the drains what do you think would happen..Same thing that would happen to your arteries. Over time deposit build up will occur until the line is clogged and nothing can pass through it. So as a preventive do not use your drain as a catch all for oils and grease.
When these clogs do occur contact your professional plumbers. Your technician will have the tools needed to get your drains back in proper working order. Sewer jetting is the most effective when it comes to grease and oil. Very hot water is used under extremely high pressure to force out the mess.
There are a variety of power rooters depending how big the job. These power rooters can be the size of compact vacuums to the size of a lawnmower(sewer rooters), water jetting machines are mounted on trailers and trucks.Most homeowners do not have these tools available to them. so by having a professional remedy the drain problems is really the only guaranteed way and peace of mind that your drains are cleared. A professional plumber will accurately diagnose and implement solutions. By calling in a professional you will save money in the long run.
