Blocked or Slow Running Drains?

Slow Running Drains?

Having a blocked or slow running drain can you really be a pain – and quite often it’s something that you want to get repaired right away and not leave alone. Blocked drains can cause horrible smells to come into your house and they are quite unsanitary. We got a lot of phone calls at John the Plumber Calgary from frantic customers asking us to come immediately to unblock their kitchen or bathroom sink, or worse, telling us that there is sewage coming up from their tub drain or floor drain. This is an emergency as it can become a health hazard very quickly.

The best way to keep your drains running smoothly is to make sure you know what’s going down on them at all times – putting a basket strainer or some kind of catch all up in your tub and sink can be a huge help for this. Grease and hair are the big culprits in kitchens and bathrooms –  wipes and pretty much anything other than regular waste going in the toilet is sure to block it overtime if not immediately.

John the plumber Calgary is always here to help you with your blocked or slow running drains; our plumbers are skilled and equipped with all the necessary tools needed. We have snakes, rooters, augers a variety of sizes and shapes; if there is something we know best it’s clogged drains! It is one of our most common call as there are many drains in a house, and small business as well.

Clogged and slow running drains in a small restaurant, hair salon or coffee shop will also be a huge deterrent for customers and staff – it’s definitely not something you want to leave alone as it can cause a multitude of problems. Keeping your drains running well and trying to prevent any sort of build up can seem like a bit of a task, especially when you have a lot of people using them, but it is well worth the trouble. Keep in mind, especially in an older home, sometimes it doesn’t matter what you do – the drain has a counter slope or has been compromised in some way and will keep blocking until it is repaired properly. Unfortunately,this can be quite expensive especially if the main line from your home is the culprit.

The good Folks at John the plumber Calgary are well-versed in this and always quote a job so you have an idea of what you’re looking at to solve the problem for good.
