Frequently Asked Questions

How Often Should I Have My Drains Cleaned?

Regular drain maintenance is essential for preventing clogs and maintaining smooth flow in your plumbing system. For residential properties, we recommend professional drain cleaning at least once a year. This frequency can increase depending on usage patterns—larger households or older homes in Philadelphia might need more frequent attention. Routine cleaning helps identify potential issues before they turn into costly repairs, ensuring peace of mind and efficient plumbing.

What Are the Signs of a Blocked Sewer Line?

Besides slow drains, common indicators of a blocked sewer line include gurgling sounds in the pipes, frequent backups in multiple drains, and unpleasant odors around the home. You might also notice patches of lush vegetation in your yard over the sewer line due to leaking sewer water. If you suspect a blockage, it’s crucial to address it promptly. Our team at Zoom Drain of Philadelphia is prepared with sophisticated diagnostic tools to locate and resolve these blockages effectively, mitigating any potential damage.

Can Tree Roots Damage My Sewer Line?

Tree roots are a common cause of sewer line damage in Philadelphia due to the lush greenery throughout the area. They seek out moisture and can infiltrate tiny cracks in pipes, eventually causing significant blockages or even breakages. Our preventive measures include advanced inspection techniques to identify root intrusion early, along with suitable solutions to prevent or rectify damage without harming your trees or landscape.

What Is Trenchless Sewer Repair?

Trenchless sewer repair is a modern method used to fix damaged sewer lines with minimal disruption to your property. Unlike traditional methods, it does not require digging up your yard or driveway. Techniques such as pipe bursting and pipe lining strengthen the existing pipes or replace them entirely, preserving your property's landscaping and structures. This efficient and effective approach is part of our commitment to providing minimally invasive and cost-effective solutions.

How Can I Prevent Future Drain Issues?

Preventing drain issues starts with mindful habits and routine maintenance. Avoid pouring grease and oil down your drains as they can solidify and cause blockages. Installing drain screens can help catch hair and debris in showers and sinks. Regularly scheduled maintenance with a professional drain service like ours is crucial, providing an opportunity to check for any potential issues and ensuring your system remains in optimal condition.

At Zoom Drain of Philadelphia, we assure you of prompt and professional service from our licensed and insured technicians. Our commitment to customer satisfaction drives us to exceed your expectations with every service call.

Customer-Centric Approach: Understanding the inconvenience caused by plumbing issues, we offer flexible scheduling and 24/7 emergency services to accommodate your needs. Our goal is to provide hassle-free experiences, ensuring all your concerns are addressed promptly and thoroughly.

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.

    Fantastic!
    “Got to hand it to these guys. They did an amazing job. From trying to unclog my drain pipe to eventually having to dig up the street to replace a broken section of pipe that was the culprit, they were great. Huge shout out to everyone who was here fixing the problem and to the people I was communicating with in the office. My thanks go out to James, Rich, Johnnie, Mike, Conor, Rebecca, and those who’s names escape me. Thanks for being open, friendly, and making the process easy and stress free. And an aside...I’m glad no one got hurt by that tree! (Inside joke) I highly recommend them.”
