Waste runs through different plumbing drains and winds up in the sewer system. These systems have to work in conjunction to filter the waste away from the home. These are a few signs that trouble is lurking in these systems and that they need to be cleaned as soon as possible.
If the water takes more than a few seconds to disappear, a Sewer & Drain Cleaning Cedar Rapids IA is needed. Water drainage should happen fairly quickly. Blockages in any of the piping down stream will slow down the drainage of the water. Because the water does carry debris along with it, this dirt and hair can get caught on any substances that are stuck. As the blockage continues to build, the entire piping can become blocked and stop all drainage.
Foul odors are indicative of issues with sewer and drainage piping. Smells can become trapped in the debris caught on the sides of piping. Because they are so deep in the drain, it can be very difficult to get rid of them. The source of the smell may also be hard to detect. While covering up the smells can temporarily mask the problem, only removal of the substances causing the smell will resolve the issue.
Backups in sinks and tubs can be caused by different things. Blockages in the main piping run or a full sewer tank can create conditions that force waste back into the system. A sewer & drain cleaning in Cedar Rapids IA can help to resolve these types of issues. Backups will only get worse if they are left untreated. Not only does this leave bacteria in the sinks and tubs that can make the family sick, it can also require a lot of extra work to try and deal with cleaning all of the different surfaces.
Clean drains aid in water drainage, prevent odors and keep backups at bay. If any of these issues are occurring, there is a problem somewhere in the system. In most cases, a simple cleaning can resolve these problems. To make an appointment or for questions regarding drainage and sewer issues, contact Roto-Rooter Sewer & Drain Cleaning.
