Even the best and carefully managed drains will eventually clog. You might know of a wide variety of cleaning products or even home remedies that can take care of most clogs. However, some clogs will be too stubborn for even the most powerful drain cleaning products. When that happens, you’ll need to call the experts at America’s Plumbing Co. to schedule professional drain cleaning for your Sacramento home. But how do you know it’s time to get help from the experts?
Here are five signs you should call for professional drain cleaning for your Sacramento home:
Gross smells
A highly noticeable sign that your drains are clogged is when you start to smell sewage. Anything that gets stuck in the drain will be soggy and rotting, creating an awful smell. The smell can get even worse in hot weather. If you’re smelling sewage in your home, call us as soon as you can.
Flies
Sewage lingering in your drain has a tenancy to attract flies and other insects that enjoy the smell. Fruit flies are attracted to the smell and enjoy eating fruit, which can cause problems if they get into your kitchen. Meanwhile, drain flies, which are also known as filter or sewer flies, use areas with sewage as breeding grounds. Seeing more flies in your home can be a sign that you should check your drains.
Odd noises
When drains get clogged, they tend to get a lot noisier. The reason for this is because clogs can force water to go through small spaces or change course when draining. Both of these things can cause your pipes to make gurgling and bubbling noises.
Slow draining
One of the most obvious signs you have drain problems is when your drains aren’t working as well. When there’s something stuck in the drain, you’ll start seeing the water go down the drain slower than usual. Sometimes, it won’t go down at all. If your efforts aren’t able to clear it, call on us.
Backed up drains
When your drains have been clogged for a while, you’ll eventually start seeing sewage come back up the drain. It’s an obvious problem that requires quick attention. You can also tell a drain is backed up when it makes gurgling noises or there’s standing water in your sink.
