Drain Cleaning Vaughan

What may seem like a simple drain that is draining slowly can become a bigger issue than you think.

Your sink may be taking too long to drain. Water could be pooling around your feet when you take a shower. Multiple drains in your home may be clogged.

Whatever the reason, it’s best to get your drains draining properly and determine what may be causing your clog.

Sureflow Plumbing & Drain offers drain cleaning in Barrie. Whether it’s your kitchen sink, shower, or even your main drain or sewer line, we can help.

We can help identify what may be causing your issue if it continues to occur as well.

Drain Cleaning Services in Barrie

There are many different types of clogs. Some will be near your drain while others will be located deeper in your drain line or main sewer line.

Which is why we need to know where your problem is occurring.

We offer drain cleaning services for:

  • Kitchen sinks
  • Bathroom sinks
  • Tubs
  • Showers
  • Toilets
  • Laundry drains
  • Basement drains
  • Main drains

Indications That You Might Need Your Drains Cleaned

Drains can take some time to become fully clogged.

Here are some signs to look for.

Your drains may need to be cleaned if you experience any of the following:

  • Slow water drainage
  • Constantly backed-up sink or tub
  • Many slow drains
  • Sounds of gurgling
  • Water backing up out of another drain
  • Bad odours from drains
  • Toilet takes longer than normal to flush
  • Backed-up basement floor drain
  • Clogs that reoccur

If one fixture is slow, it could be from a buildup in that area.

If many fixtures are slow, you may have a blockage further down your line.

Why Do Drains Get Clogged?

There are many reasons why your drains may get clogged.

They can build up slowly over time or happen quicker.

Some of these reasons include:

  • Grease
  • Food
  • Hair
  • Soap
  • Paper
  • Objects
  • Buildup
  • Minerals
  • Tree roots
  • Old pipes

Kitchen sinks will build up from grease and food.

Bathroom sinks can get clogged with hair and other items.

Main lines can also get clogged by many factors, such as tree roots and excessive buildup. Or maybe even broken pipes.

It’s important to know what is causing your clog when it continues to come back.

Kitchen Sink Drains

Clogs can build up over time in your kitchen sink.

Over time, grease, fats, food and other debris will begin to coat the inside walls of your drain. Once this happens, more debris will start to build on top of it until your drain can no longer allow water to pass through it.

Your sink will begin to drain slowly.

Eventually, it will stop draining altogether.

Our drain cleaning services can get further down your line than most home remedies.

Do not continue to dump chemical-based drain openers down your line if your clog is still there. Find out what is causing your drain to back up.

Bathroom Tub/Shower Drains

Hair is usually what causes most drain issues in the bathroom.

Hair, along with other products, can build up on the inside of your drain and cause a clog.

Here are some things you may experience:

  • Shower not draining
  • Bathtub draining slowly
  • Bathroom sink holding water
  • Hearing gurgling once your drain clears

If you have been having these issues, it’s best to have your drains professionally cleaned.

Basement Floor Drain Backing Up

Your basement floor drain could be backing up due to a clog in your drainage system.

Your basement floor drain is usually one of the lowest points in your drainage system, so if you have a clog in your main drain line or sewer line, you may see water back up into your basement floor drain.

If you see sewage or wastewater coming out of your basement floor drain, it may be necessary to clean more than just the drain.

There may be a clog further down the line.

A plumber will be able to determine where your clog is and if any further inspections need to be made.

Main Drain Line & Sewer Line Cleaning

If you have a problem with your main drain line or sewer line, you will most likely experience issues in multiple areas of your home.

  • Slow drains
  • Toilets that gurgle
  • Water backing up into lower drains
  • Backups from the sewer line
  • Cleaned drains that continue to clog

These are all common signs of a main drain line clog. There could be many reasons why your main drain line is clogged. From excessive buildup to roots growing into your sewer line. Your plumber will determine what needs to be done to fix the problem.

Drain cleaning machines may be needed, or even hydro-jetting and/or sewer camera inspections may be needed.

How Is Professional Drain Cleaning Done?

There are many different ways to clean a drain. It all depends on what the cause of your clog is and where it is located. Once we diagnose your drain problem, we can choose what type of equipment to use.

Cable or Drain Snake

A drain snake uses a cable that feeds through the line.

Different tools or attachments can be used to help break up, cut or grab what’s causing the blockage.

A drain fixture may require smaller equipment. Main drains and sewer lines may call for the use of a drain machine.

It depends on the line you’re using the equipment on.

Hydro-Jetting

There may be more than just a clog in some lines.

You can have grease and other materials that have built up on the walls of your pipe.

We can use hydro-jetting to clear these lines out as well in some cases.

By feeding water through our machine, we can blast buildup out of your line.

Hydro-jetting isn’t always the answer to a stoppage. We need to evaluate what is going on with the line and what your stoppage may be.

Sewer Camera

When you continue to have stoppages in your lines, there could be something going on inside the line.

By using our sewer camera, we can see what’s going on in the accessible portion of your line.

It can show you if there are tree roots, buildup, broken lines, poor fittings, collapsed lines or anything else that may be restricting your line.

This is also helpful if your line has been cleared and you’re still having issues.

Why Is My Drain Always Getting Backed Up?

When a drain has been cleared by a professional and continues to back up, there may be something causing the drain to become clogged again.

Such as tree roots in the sewer line. These can cause toilet paper and waste to build up against them.

A pipe may have a weak point where things continue to get stuck.

You may need to have it cleaned more often.

Or you may need to fix the issue with your pipes.

By finding out why your drain keeps getting clogged, you can save yourself from constantly calling someone to come unclog it.

Trees and Barrie Sewer Lines

As mentioned earlier, trees can be the cause of your sewer line issues.

Tree roots will look for water, and if there is a crack in your sewer line or a loose joint, the roots can make their way in.

Then continue to grow inside of the pipe.

Once the tree root is in your sewer line, it can cause waste to stick to it. This can slow down the sewer line.

If you have trees on your property that have been there for some time and keep having sewer issues, you may want to have a camera inspection done to see if tree roots are the cause.

But others you may need help with right away.

Drain Cleaning vs. Hydro-Jetting

These two can go hand in hand or be used separately.

Traditional drain cleaning will help remove a clog or clear away an object.

Hydro-jetting clears away material from within the walls of your pipe using pressurized water.

It all depends on what is being clogged and where the clog is located. It will also depend on the diameter of the pipe and its overall condition. If a drain continues to clog, we may want to look into that as well.

Sometimes we recommend a camera inspection to help us better understand what your line needs.

Do I Need to Camera My Line If It’s Plugged?

Probably not. If a quick fix gets your drain flowing again, there’s probably nothing to worry about.

However, if you continue to experience these types of issues, then maybe it’s worth looking at. This could be frequent clogging or multiple drains running slowly. You may be experiencing sewer backups or possibly tree roots. Maybe your drain was recently unclogged and began to clog again.

There are many reasons why you would want to camera your sewer line.
