Our Comprehensive Drain Clearing Process

Universal Plumbing’s Drain Clearing service is a complete solution, designed to tackle even the toughest clogs and leave your drains functioning like new. Here’s how our process works:

1. Initial InspectionOur technicians begin with an inspection to understand the nature and location of the blockage. We use camera inspection technology when necessary to pinpoint the exact issue without unnecessary guesswork.
2. Effective Drain Clearing Techniques Depending on the clog’s severity, we employ the best method for the job. Options include:
   • Snaking/Augering: Ideal for clearing common clogs in sinks, showers, and toilets.
   • Hydro Jetting: A high-pressure water technique that’s effective for stubborn blockages caused by grease, soap scum, or tree roots.
   • Root Removal: For outdoor or older pipes, we remove any root intrusions to prevent recurring blockages.
3. Final Testing & Cleanup Once the blockage is cleared, we test the drain to ensure it’s flowing properly. Our team leaves your space clean and free from any mess, with drains that are as good as new.

Signs You Need Professional Drain Clearing

If you’re noticing any of these common issues, it may be time to call in the pros:

• Slow Draining Sinks or Tubs Water pooling or draining slowly in sinks or tubs is a clear sign of a partial blockage.
• Recurring Clogs If you’re dealing with the same clog repeatedly, professional clearing can address the root cause.
• Unpleasant Odors Persistent smells from your drains often indicate trapped debris or buildup.
• Gurgling Sounds Air trapped by partial blockages can cause gurgling or bubbling sounds in pipes.

Descaling for Drain Clearing

Descaling is perfect for removing tough mineral buildup or corrosion from older cast iron pipes. If your pipes show signs of reduced flow capacity or recurring clogs caused by hardened deposits, descaling is the ideal solution.

• Restores Pipe Capacity: Effectively removes mineral buildup to improve water flow.
• Cost-Efficient: Prolongs the life of your existing pipes without the need for replacement.
• Eco-Friendly: Uses mechanical methods that avoid harsh chemicals.
• Prevents Further Issues: Helps reduce blockages caused by rough pipe interiors.

• Efficient & Long-Lasting Results: Our advanced equipment ensures that clogs are cleared thoroughly, reducing the chance of future blockages.
• Protects Your Plumbing: DIY solutions can sometimes cause damage to pipes. Our methods are safe and effective, protecting your plumbing system.
• Saves Time & Hassle: Instead of dealing with slow drains and repeated clogs, professional drain clearing restores full function quickly and efficiently.
