How do you repair your drain without digging up pipes?

There are alternatives to using such extreme methods to fix your drains. Video camera inspection is the main method we use to unclog a drain. A small camera on a flexible rod will be inserted into the obstructed pipe by a plumber. This enables them to determine the specific cause of the obstruction and how to get rid of it without engaging in any digging.

Why Plumbers Don’t Like Drano

Chemical drain cleaners are frequently used as a quick remedy for plumbing issues, but in some situations, they may potentially cause more harm than good. Chemical cleaners are normally not advised by plumbers since they can corrode metal pipes and produce strong fumes that can be dangerous if inhaled. Moreover, these solutions only temporarily relieve clogs; they do not actually resolve them.

Preventative Drain Maintenance Tips

While our team at Zoom Drain of Birmingham is always available to assist with any drain repair needs, there are steps you can take to prevent clogs and blockages from occurring in the first place. Here are some preventative drain maintenance tips:

  1. Be mindful of what you're putting down the drain. Avoid pouring grease, oil, and coffee grounds down the sink, and dispose of food scraps in the garbage instead of the disposal.
  2. Install drain strainers to catch hair, debris, and other materials before they can enter the pipes.
  3. Run hot water down the drain after each use to help flush away any buildup.
  4. Periodically use a natural drain cleaner, such as baking soda and vinegar, to help keep drains clear.
  5. Schedule routine drain cleaning services with our team to ensure your pipes are in top condition.

By following these tips, you can help prevent costly and inconvenient drain repairs. If you do experience a clog or blockage, don't hesitate to contact our team for prompt and professional service.

Our FAQs

  • To prevent clogs, avoid putting the following down your kitchen sink:

    • Grease, oil, or fat (FOG).
    • Coffee grounds.
    • Eggshells or food scraps.
    • Fibrous vegetables (like celery or corn husks).
    • Pasta, rice, or other starchy foods.
    • Regularly clean drains using a natural drain cleaner like baking soda and vinegar.
    • Install drain screens or traps to catch hair and debris.
    • Avoid flushing non-biodegradable items down the toilet.
    • Be mindful of what you pour down the kitchen sink (e.g., no grease or oils).
    • Have professional inspections performed periodically.

  • A cleanout is a pipe fitting that provides easy access for drain cleaning. If your plumbing system doesn't already have one, Zoom Drain can install a cleanout, which can save you time and money when clearing future blockages.

  • Sewer lining is a trenchless method of repairing damaged pipes by inserting a liner into the existing pipe. The liner hardens into a new pipe, sealing any cracks or leaks. It’s less invasive and often more cost-effective than traditional sewer replacement.

  • Signs that your sewer line may need repair or replacement include:

    • Persistent slow drains or backups.
    • Unpleasant odors coming from your drains.
    • Wet spots or patches of lush greenery in your yard (indicating leaks).
    • Gurgling sounds in your toilet or sinks. Zoom Drain provides comprehensive sewer repair, lining, and replacement services.

  • A malfunctioning sewage pump may show signs like:

    • Sewage backup or slow draining.
    • Foul odors or gurgling noises.
    • Inconsistent or no pump operation. Regular inspections and maintenance can prevent costly failures.

  • Signs of sump pump issues include:

    • Water pooling around the sump pump area.
    • Strange noises when the pump operates.
    • Pump not turning on or off properly.
    • Water not being pumped out effectively. Zoom Drain can inspect and provide repair or replacement services.

  • Jetting from the roof vent involves sending high-pressure water through your drain lines starting from the roof vent, which clears out blockages from the top of the pipes. This technique can reach clogs that are deep within the system, particularly for stubborn, hard-to-reach blockages.

  • Hydrojetting is a technique where high-pressure water is used to clean drains. It’s especially effective for removing grease, debris, and tree roots. This method is ideal for tougher clogs that can't be easily cleared with standard tools.

  • Zoom Drain uses advanced tools like:

    • Hydrojetting machines for powerful, high-pressure water cleaning.
    • Sewer cameras to inspect and locate blockages deep within your pipes.
    • Locators to precisely find and identify issues underground or behind walls.
    • Traditional augers for mechanical drain clearing when necessary.
