Commonly Asked Questions

How often should I have my drains cleaned?

It is recommended to have your drains professionally cleaned at least once a year to prevent buildup and blockages. However, if you notice slow draining, frequent clogs, or unpleasant odors, it may be necessary to schedule a cleaning more frequently. Regular maintenance can help keep your plumbing system in optimal condition and prevent costly repairs.

Can you clean all types of drains in my home?

Yes, we can clean a wide variety of drains in and around your property, including kitchen drains, storm drains, basement drains, laundry drains, utility drains, yard drains, shower drains, sink drains, bathtub drains, and main drains. Our team is equipped with the right tools and expertise to handle any type of drain cleaning job.

What should I do if my drain is clogged and I can't fix it myself?

If you have a clogged drain that you can't fix yourself, it's best to call a professional drain cleaning service. Attempting to fix the clog on your own with harsh chemicals or improper tools can cause further damage to your plumbing system. Our team in Charlotte is ready to provide fast and reliable drain cleaning services to resolve any clogging issues you may have.

How Can We Prevent Clogged Drains?

Being careful with what you put down your drains could help prevent a serious clog or costly repair. Below are some tips on how to prevent clogged drains: Kitchen Sink Drains. Avoid pouring grease, fats, coffee grounds, potato skins, and other large debris down the sink. Drain strainers can be a great tool for preventing chunks of food from going down the drain. Even if you have a garbage disposal, it's still best to discard leftover food into the garbage. Bathroom Sink Drains. As best as you can, try to keep hair, soap scum, nails, and other foreign objects from going down the drain. Shower and Bath Tub Drains. Use a drain strainer to help prevent hair from going down the drain. Instead, just brush and floss your teeth at the bathroom sink. Then, discard the floss in the garbage. Toilets. Only flush human waste and toilet paper down your toilets. Floss, feminine products, disinfecting wipes, tissue, and even "flushable wipes" should not be flushed down your toilets. None of these paper products break down the same way toilet paper does and can clog your drain or sewer pipes. The more careful you are with what goes down your drains, the better off your drain and sewer pipes will be.

How to Unclog a Shower Drain

Unclogging a shower drain is a simple process if done correctly. The first step is to use a plunger to try and dislodge any clogs that may be present. Place the plunger over the drain and press down firmly, then pull up quickly several times in succession. This should help remove any blockages that are causing the drain to be slow. If the plunger does not work, then it may be necessary to use a drain cleaning solution. For more stubborn clogs, Zoom Drain of Charlotte offers professional drain cleaning services that can quickly and efficiently take care of any problems. We provide fast, reliable service with all types of drains in Charlotte. Contact us today to learn more about our drain cleaning services. With Zoom Drain of Charlotte, you can trust that your clogged shower drain will be cleared up in no time.

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.
