Drain Cleaning Denver is always a hassle that happens at the most inconvenient time! We’ve listed five warning signs to help you identify that you have a drain cleaning problem.
Give us a call 24/7 and we will be there with a solution that meets your needs.
1. MULTIPLE FIXTURES CLOGGED AT ONCE
While slow-draining sinks and clogged toilets are common, it’s quite unusual for multiple clogs to occur on the same day—unless something is wrong with the sewer line.
2. GURGLING TOILETS
Toilets usually have the most direct path to the main drain and, in general, can be the biggest pipes within all your home’s plumbing fixtures. While this design feature is intended to help prevent sewer clogs, it also means that your toilets often experience problems first.
You may notice that the toilet starts flushing sluggishly, or that it gurgles and bubbles when you:
• Run water down the sink
• Drain the bathtub
• Run a load of laundry in the washing machine
These signs may signal a necessary drain cleaning Denver. In severe cases, this may even make the toilet overflow. All of these are signs of trapped air or stoppages in the sewer line stoppages in the sewer line, and demand immediate attention from our professionals if you want to avoid a full-blown sewer backup.
3. WASTEWATER BACKING UP IN BASEMENT DRAINS
The lowest points of your home’s plumbing system are bound to experience the most trouble when you need drain cleaning Denver. Watch for anything unusual in your basement showers, tubs, and floor drains. If the sewer line is clogged, it could start backing up with wastewater when sinks and laundry lines drain.
Be aware here that this red flag may indicate a problem with the washing machine drain itself not the main drain. While this may come as a relief, it still requires a professional and prompt attention.
4. SEWAGE SMELL COMING FROM DRAINS
When your plumbing system is working smoothly, wastewater flows down the pipes and away from your house. U-shaped bends in the plumbing under sinks and drains hold a small amount of water to keep sewer smells at bay.
However, if obstructions jam the line, sewage smells may seep into your home. If these odors linger, call us to get our expert opinion.
5. PUDDLES IN THE YARD
Mature tree root intrusion is an unfortunate cause of clogged sewer lines. This occurs when tiny fissures in the plumbing attract roots that require a constant source of water and nutrients. Thread-like roots gradually compromise the pipe, separating the joint as they grow into the line. This can eventually clog the sewer and cause wastewater to leak into your yard, creating foul-smelling puddles as a result.
