Think of your home’s plumbing system like a ripple effect—if you fail to acknowledge and take responsibility for the minor clogs they will only grow larger and more difficult to eradicate. This could potentially lead to a sewer backup. Scarborough homeowners are advised to schedule annual inspections and take preventative measures like installing a backwater valve for enhanced safety.
Our expert plumber is the perfect assistance to help you get started.
However, there will always be incidents where a home is not protected, and homeowners fall victim to a sewer backup. Scarborough plumbers on our team are always prepared with verified techniques to remove drain sewer blockages that result in sewer system backups. Scarborough residents may want to learn more about:
HydroScrub® Jetting
After a general inspection, our plumbing professional may opt for a hydro jetting to blast away any intruding clogs using pressurized jets of water and manoeuvring them through your home's wastewater lines. Plumbers position the head of the nozzle into a key access point on the drain line and slowly start to lower the hose into the line as the cleaning starts. The nozzle creates enough physical force to break off debris and remnants of the pipe’s walls and drag itself through the pipe during the cleaning process. By default, the added weight will pull the water and debris into the sewer.
Drain cleaning solutions like hydro jetting can help prevent messy Scarborough sewer backup situations because you are blasting any clog-causing debris that results in sewer backups. Scarborough residents who invest in preventative maintenance can prevent major plumbing issues such as sewer backups. Scarborough homeowners can ask our team for effective solutions on how else you can protect your plumbing system.
Clogged Drain
As we said, most problems in sewer systems begin with your household's clogged drains, which, if not dealt with, can lead to further pressure on your main and lateral lines and can lead to issues such as a sewer backup. Scarborough homeowners will see our plumbers utilize video camera inspection during your plumbing service to detect the source of the clog and use hydro jetting to eliminate it. There are numerous reasons that this blockage might appear, from food waste, strands of hair, skin flakes, soap scum to mineral deposit buildup on the walls of drain pipes, but you can rest assured that hydro jetting will eliminate the blockage no matter the cause.
