There are different options available when it comes to clearing drains. Drain snaking, also known as rooting and cabling, is often an effective method to use. Drain snaking involves the use of a cable with a small cutting tool attached to the tip. The cable is snaked through the pipe and cuts the blockage into small pieces as it goes along, allowing the debris to be washed through the pipe to the outlet. If you suspect a blockage in your plumbing, call Chino Hills Drain Cleaning services and let the experts take over.

Chino Hills Drain Cleaning: When to say Uncle and Call for Help

Drain and sewer pipes as they exit a building, are placed underground. The type of piping system will influence the type of pipe used. The type of pipe most vulnerable to pipe fracture is clay pipe. If your home is older, chances are clay sewer pipe was used. Clay pipe is laid in short sections, usually around 5 feet in length. That means there are many joints along the pipe system and joints are often subject to breakage from a variety of reasons. Roots from trees and other vegetation will often infiltrate the joints and begin to grow in the pipe itself. The roots will continue to grow because of the flow of water in the pipe providing the necessary nutrients. The roots will eventually clog the pipe until backup occurs at the beginning of the system.

If you are experiencing slow moving plumbing or the inevitable backup, it is time to call in the experts. One call to Chino Hills Drain Cleaning is all it takes and the pipe clearing experts will find the blockage and remove it.

Chino Hills Drain Cleaning will diagnose the problem and the pipe in which it occurs. Chances are the blockage, if it is from roots growing in the pipe, has damaged the pipe to the point it needs repair or replacement. The damages to the pipe can be located by using the video camera inspection method. The video camera is run through the pipe, recording the condition of the interior of the pipe and identifying the location. The video camera records the distance from the beginning of its run to the blockage and produces depth data to locate the invert of the pipe.

There are two methods of repair available. The pipe can be excavated where the damage occurs and that section of pipe can be replaced. The second option is to reline the pipe with a substance that is blown into the pipe then takes the shape of the pipe and hardens, creating an impervious pipe lining.

An alternate method to remove clogs from a pipe is to hydro jet it away. The hydro jet method involves spraying water at a very high pressure into the pipe and literally blowing the blockage through the pipe to the outlet. Chino Hills Drain Cleaning uses state of the art hydro jet equipment and the method is especially effective if the blockage is roots.
