There is nothing worse than standing in your shower and
having the water slowly backing up and deepening around your ankles as it
climbs higher. In most instances this is probably a sign of slow water draining.
Slows drains can be caused by dozens of different scenarios.
As professional plumbers we have seen a lot however we will
stop before we say we have seen it all, as any true professional will tell you I
bet there is a whole lot more out there to see.

| Residential and Commercial Plumbing Systems |
The plumbing system in your home or office is comprised of
supply lines, those lines that bring hot and cold water in to be used in
kitchens bathrooms laundry etc. The other side of that coin is drain lines. These
lines carry the dirty waste water away from those same areas to avoid
contamination and thus create the safe and clean indoor plumbing system we know
today.
Today we are looking at the drainage side of the
plumbing system. You have probably seen a few
hairs clogging the drain at the base of a sink or tub. No big deal you just
swipe those away with a paper towel or wash cloth. Perhaps what you may not see
are the hairs and other debris that get past that initial drain cover.
These items accumulate and create clogs that slow down your drainage.
These clogs usually start to accumulate around bends or angles in the drainage
pipe system. Once they become so built up that water has a hard time passing
thru them you start to notice the backups and that’s when you typically call a
professional plumber.

| Plumbers Snake, Drain Clog Removal |
A plumbing service company can come out and diagnose the
problem pretty easily. If it is a debris clog near the source it can easily be
removed by hand or with a Snake. A snake is a long wire tool that collects debris
as it moves thru the drainage system clearing clogs.
In some cases however more sophisticated equipment is needed
to investigate your drainage issues.

| Plumbers Video Camera Inspection |
A video camera can be inserted into your drainage system to
look for breaks in pipes clogs such as roots or larger objects that may be
causing the blockage. These are typically carried by professional plumbers and
can really give you a great insight into what is going on inside your plumbing
system.
