The Benefits of Professional Drain Cleaning


Have you ever heard of professional drain cleaning? Homeowners often wonder if it’s necessary. Professional drain cleaning is a process that a professional plumber does to clean the drains in homes within the United States. Drains can become clogged for many reasons, the most common are hair, cooking oil, food and mineral buildup. These substances are often difficult to remove by simply doing the standard procedure to unclog a drain. Professional drain cleaning removes the items mentioned above and provides the following benefits.

  • You Save Money – Saving money is one topic all homeowners like to hear. It is true that a plumbing service will charge a fee to professionally clean the drain, but it’s going to save you a lot of money in the long run. For example, you might have experienced a clogged drain in your home at some point.

You probably ran out to the local store and purchased liquid cleansers that promise to unclog the drain. But, the first bottle didn’t work. So, you went out and purchased a few more, plus a plunger. Then in the process of unclogging the drain, you most likely damaged your pipes with all of the harsh chemicals in the liquid cleansers. Then you had to pay more money to fix or replace the pipes. All of this surely costs more than getting a professional drain cleaning.

  • Lessens the Risk of Clogged Drains – Clogged drains can become a larger problem if not fixed immediately. Have you ever had a clogged drain that overflowed into the bathroom or kitchen? Did it ruin your floors? Or cause mildew to grow? These are common issues that arise from a clogged drain. A professional drain cleaning will lessen the risk of frequently clogged drains.
  • Prevent Mildew and Bacteria Buildup – A hidden problem that many homeowners don’t think about is that bacteria and mildew grow at a rapid pace. This means if you have a clogged drain for five days and you don’t fix it, bacteria and mildew are most likely growing. This causes odor and exposure to harmful bacteria. A professional drain cleaning will remove all sludge, mildew, and bacteria from the drain.

Clogged drains should be taken care of immediately. As a homeowner, you know that one small problem can cause many larger problems throughout your home. It’s best to fix issues as quickly as possible to prevent an expensive situation later. Take action today and contact me, Chip Mokher for further assistance.
