Sewer cleaning in Atlanta, GA, and the surrounding areas is one of the most important—and easiest—maintenance tasks for your business or home. We use sewer pipes for everything. From the sink and showers to the toilets and outside drains, you would be amazed at how easy it is for them to get clogged.
To be fair, sewer pipes can stand years of abuse and you won’t even notice. The thing with clogged pipes is that they normalize bad draining. Maybe you bought that house and figured it’s an old house and drains are just slow. And you are right, but they’re slow for a reason.
Sewer cleaning services are easy, quick, and very affordable. There are two steps to cleaning a sewer pipe. First, we’ll carry out a sewer camera inspection. We want to see exactly what’s in those pipes before we do anything else. Different problems call for different solutions. So we might find the problem is a grease buildup or something bigger like a tree root intrusion. Either way, we have the tools to get rid of the problem and restore the power of a clean drain.
If you ever think a sewer cleaning is necessary, don’t hesitate to contact our pipe lining company. We offer our excellent services to several locations throughout Georgia, including these areas:
Most homeowners would agree that performing home sewer pipe maintenance on a regular basis is highly important. Heating and cooling, landscaping, having the chimney flue cleaned, and ensuring the house is properly insulated are all aspects of maintenance that almost immediately come to mind. Having the sewer system cleaned and inspected, however, often goes overlooked, largely due to its out-of-sight nature.
If your home or business hasn’t had an inspection or cleaning in over a year, call NGI Trenchless Pipe & Sewer Repair for assistance with sewer line cleaning. As with other parts of a building, the hardware, pipes, fittings, and fixtures can and will degrade over time. Regular maintenance forestalls this eventuality, however, and can extend the life of your entire sewer system for decades.
When are Sewer Cleanings Recommended?
At NGI Trenchless Pipe & Sewer Repair, we are accustomed to identifying the below symptoms as strong indications that the pipelines need to be cleaned, as the consequences of leaving them be can lead to a much larger problem:
- Gurgling noises in your pipes
- Lingering odors of sewage in basements or bathrooms
- Toilets or showers that chronically experience backups
- Slow or stagnant drains
- Low water pressure
Regular Sewer Cleanings Saves You Time and Spares You From Headaches
Without regular cleanings to address these symptoms and remove smaller issues, these symptoms can fester and cause your sewer system to fall in disrepair, shattering the pipes and allowing raw sewage to flood your home or basement.
Even if you aren’t experiencing any drain problems currently, our professionals recommend ordering a sewer cleaning once a year. There’s no ideal time - any time of year is suitable, as long as outdoor temperatures ensure that soil is soft. Take into consideration your personal schedule, and times when your house and sewer system will be experiencing additional traffic and could be prone to breaking down. For many, just before summer vacation when kids will be off from school is a great time. Early fall, before the busy winter holidays, is equally popular. Regardless of the season, an annual sewer cleaning will allow you peace of mind and keep the expensive, surprise repairs at bay.
Our Sewer Cleaning Methods
NGI Trenchless Pipe & Sewer Repair offers two methods of sewer cleaning. Rooting (or snaking) your drains can solve localized problems, such as a clog from hair or small tree roots. The second method, hydro jetting, is most effective and provides the equivalent of deep cleaning. A hot, pressurized jet of water is forced into your sewer pipe and can strip away built-up kitchen grease, break down small to medium-sized tree roots, and remove other stubborn debris with ease.
FAQs
As sewer lines aren't pressurized, many signs are often not as noticeable. The main indications include:
- Sewer backups
- Foul drain/sewer odors
- Problems with multiple drains that lead to your sewer pipes
