Why DIY Drain Cleaning May Do More Harm Than Good

When a drain starts to clog, it’s tempting to grab a plunger or pour down a chemical cleaner to try and fix it yourself. While these quick fixes might seem convenient at first, they can lead to bigger problems down the line. 

Our professionals can help homeowners avoid falling into some common pitfalls, such as:

The Risk of Damaging Your Pipes

Many DIY methods rely on harsh chemical cleaners that claim to dissolve clogs instantly. However, these chemicals can be highly corrosive and eat away at your pipes, especially if your plumbing system is older or made from certain materials. Our professional services use safe, effective tools that clear clogs without causing long-term damage to your pipes.

Partial Repairs That Don’t Fix the Problem

DIY solutions might seem to work temporarily, but often, they only clear a portion of the clog. This means the residue that caused the blockage remains, allowing the clog to return. We know how to identify and remove the entire clog, thoroughly clean your drains, and reduce the chance of recurring problems.

Pushing the Clog Deeper

When used incorrectly, snake tools and plungers can push blockages further into your plumbing system, making the problem harder to reach and more expensive to resolve. Our trained technicians have the skills and equipment to carefully extract clogs, getting your drains fully cleared the first time.

Exposure to Harmful Chemicals

Store-bought drain cleaners often contain dangerous chemicals that can pose health risks if inhaled or improperly handled. Avoid putting yourself or your family at risk by allowing our experienced professionals to use safe, eco-friendly drain cleaning methods.

Compounding Damage to Plumbing Fixtures

Attempting to disassemble fixtures like sinks or garbage disposals can lead to stripped threads, broken seals, or leaks. Our team has the expertise to disassemble and reassemble fixtures as needed, getting everything put back together as it should be. 

Ultimately, homeowners have other things they can do with their spare time besides work on a drain problem. Let us get your water flowing freely and safely while you spend your time with family, friends, or hobbies.
