Signs You Need Drain Repair Services and what to do
Regular checks of your drains are usually helpful but let face it, very few people actually do that.
Most will wait until they notice a change in the performance (when it clogs) but most of the time this can be avoided by occasionally checking the flow rate
If you notice a slowing in the flow of the drain then a cleaning is usually all it needs.
To do this just carefully remove the P-trap (make sure you put a bowl or bucket under the P-trap to catch water that is still in the drain pipe.
I usually dump this dirty water in the toilet or any other drain near by.
Then, once it’s removed, simply rinse the pipe out under a different sink that has the drain still in place.
after the pipe is cleaned and free of debris then reinstall the P-trap and any other piping that you may have removed and cleaned.
Most professional plumbers will charge about $100 per drain so if you don’t mind the smell and you are somewhat handy then you can probably do this yourself.
I recommend at least once annually to keep a good flow of your drains.
