5 Benefits to Hiring a Plumber for Drain Cleaning Services
If you're like most homeowners, you use a drain cleaner or another home remedy to fix a clogged drain.
However, home remedies don't always work, and drain cleaners are known to damage your pipes.
Although you might not consider it, there are several reasons to hire a professional plumber for clogged drain repair, and here are the top five.
Chemical Cleaners Cause Damage
As mentioned, drain cleaners use harsh chemicals to break up clogs, and unfortunately, the chemicals don't stop at the obstruction.
Repeatedly using chemical drain cleaners can weaken pipes, causing them to burst, resulting in a bigger mess and more expensive repair.
Lastly, most drain cleaners don't remove clogs; they push them further down in your plumbing system, where it forms another clog.
Plumbers Use Advanced Tools
At best, the average homeowner has a plunger and basic tool kit to deal with plumbing problems.
Professional plumbers use professional tools like video cameras, drain snakes, and hydro jets to remove the most stubborn, caked-in clogs.
Home Remedies Don't Always Work
While some people swear by them, home remedies like hot water and dish soap or baking soda and vinegar usually don't work.
Depending on the nature and location of the clog, most home remedies won't break up the material or even reach it if it's deep in the system.
Professionals Can Diagnose Clogs More Quickly
Every clog is different, and if you don't know what's going on in the drain, you can end up wasting time and money trying to solve the problem.
And as mentioned, continuing to pour harsh chemical drain cleaners down the drain will most certainly cause more significant problems down the road.
Professional plumbers are experts in diagnosing not only where the clog is in your plumbing system but what's causing it.
Knowing the cause of the obstruction determines the best method to remove it. The result is plumbers fix the problem more quickly than if you tried doing it yourself.
Clogs Could Indicate Bigger Problems
Sometimes, a clog is just the tip of the iceberg. Multiple clogged drains could mean you have a blockage in the main sewer line, and clearing one pipe won't solve the problem.
A professional plumber has the expertise and equipment to diagnose problems you may not be aware of, and the longer they go unrepaired, the worse the damage becomes.
To ensure safe, effective pipe cleaning, call Fischer Plumbing & HVAC, the most trusted plumbing company in Brockport.
Brockport Water Heater Services
For most people, their water heaters are out of sight and out of mind.
These necessary appliances toil away silently in garages, basements, and closets to provide us with hot water day and night.
And, because of this, it's difficult to know when your water heater is in danger of failure.
However, there are some signs to watch for that indicate your water heater needs to be repaired or replaced.
Is Your Water Heater Failing?
If you don't want to wake up to a freezing morning shower because your water heater failed, it's crucial to notice the most common symptoms of a water heater that's failing, such as:
- Knocking or rumbling noises coming from the tank.
- Murky or rust-colored water.
- Rust on the tank's exterior.
- Leaking water around the tank's base.
- Not getting the amount of hot water as you used to get.
- Fluctuating water temperature.
Not all of these signs mean you need to replace your water heater right now, but calling a plumbing contractor is prudent to avoid sudden system failure.
The best way to avoid water heater problems is to call a professional plumbing company for annual water heater maintenance and repair.
Most water heater problems result from lack of maintenance, and by getting routine service, you can find and fix minor issues before they blow up into something requiring a new hot water tank installation.
