Plumbing company shares the do’s and don’ts for effective drain cleaning
Rockville, MD -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/18/2019 -- As winter comes to an end, it's time to plan annual spring cleaning. From dusting to emptying the fridge, there's plenty to do before the warm weather arrives.
Just in time for spring cleaning, Vito Services is offering drain cleaning service in Montgomery County, MD, and throughout the tri-state area. Though many homeowners try to perform their own plumbing repairs, they aren't always successful. In fact, such attempts can often make the problem worse and more expensive in the long run.
To help homeowners this season, Vito Services is sharing the following drain cleaning tips:
- Avoid using chemical cleaners. While acid and other substances can remove clogs, they also will eat away at the pipes and lead to costlier problems such as leaks.
- Don't try snaking the drain. Unless residents have professional experience, it's best to call a plumber for drain cleaning. Drain snakes and other tools can damage the pipes and push the clog down farther rather than remove it.
- Be conscious of what goes down the drain. Grease, hair, bones and other nonfood items shouldn't go down the drain. Use a filter to prevent such items from going down the drain and potentially clogging the pipes.
- Call in the professionals and schedule routine plumbing maintenance. When it comes to clogged drains, it's best to call a professional from the start. This ensures the clog will be removed efficiently without further damage to the plumbing. Vito Services uses video camera technology to quickly locate clogs and hydro jet cleaning to effectively remove them. The company also offers a Service Club so members can have their drains cleaned regularly. This helps to prevent major clogs and keep the drains working properly year after year.
