It might seem obvious that drain cleaning in Chicago homes is necessary, but not always. Some drainage issues don’t cause noticeable problems right away. Instead, they give little hints that something isn’t right.
Drains Smell Bad
Often, people dismiss smelly drains because they assume it’s normal. However, plumbing that’s working correctly shouldn’t smell. Call a plumber for drain cleaning services if a toilet or sink drain emits a foul odor that doesn’t go away within a reasonable time. The culprit is likely a buildup that needs removal.
Drains Release Water Slowly
Ideally, sinks should release water quickly. So, when it takes several minutes for the sink to drain, this is a sign something is blocking the water flow. Professional drain cleaning can remove buildup and restore fast drainage.
Toilets Gurgle
When toilets drain correctly, they don’t make excessive noise. They don’t gurgle or make bubbling noises. A shallow drainage issue might cause gurgling, but it’s more likely the result of a clog deeper in the system that plunging won’t fix. Call a plumber before the problem escalates and becomes a full-fledged sewer issue.
Drains Haven’t Been Cleaned Recently
Plumbers recommend annual drain cleaning services to keep large clogs from forming and causing drainage issues. If it’s been more than a year since one’s scheduled drain cleaning services, now’s the perfect time to schedule them.
