Drain Cleaning in Odessa, TX

Kitchen clogs

Grease is the usual culprit. It goes down warm, cools in the pipe and catches food. Let fat cool and throw it away, and run plenty of water with the disposal.

Bathroom clogs

Hair and soap are the main causes in tubs and showers. A simple screen over the drain prevents most of them.

Main line trouble

Several slow drains, a gurgling toilet, or water backing up into the lowest fixture point to a main line blockage. Roots, grease, wipes, or a sagging or broken pipe are typical causes.

Seeing inside the pipe

A camera inspection after the line is cleared shows what caused the clog. It tells you whether the line just needed cleaning or has a break that will keep clogging. See sewer and septic.

Dust and grit

Windy days carry a lot of dust. Grit washed into floor drains, outdoor drains or a laundry sink can settle in pipes over time. Keep outdoor drain covers in place.

Get it cleared

If a plunger doesn't do it or several drains are slow, send a request and a plumber will get in touch.

Laundry drains

Washing machines push a lot of water fast. Lint, sand from work clothes and small items can clog the standpipe or the line behind it. A lint trap on the washer hose helps, especially in households where oilfield clothes get washed every day.

Prevention

A strainer in every sink and tub, no grease down the kitchen drain and no wipes in the toilet prevent most clogs. Homes with old clay sewer lines or big trees near the line may benefit from a camera check every few years.
