A drain can be blocked due to buildup of debris, tree roots blocking it or even lack of drain maintenance. Clogged drains can cause drain overflow and even floods, causing thousands more in repair costs. Gradual accumulation of debris and unwanted items like hair are some of the most common causes of drain clogs. Be careful what goes down your drain, we have an article on what can be flushed.
Tree roots cause serious drain blockage problems in Toronto, especially in the older regions of the city. In Toronto, we have tons of older homes with trees that can be older than the house itself. The roots grow towards sources of water, and your drain can become very useful for these trees’ nutrition. Drain water contains almost everything for these tree roots to grow. This will lead roots to penetrate the drainpipes eventually and then expand. Once they are in, they will continue to grow larger and create massive blockages and leaks. Please read our Tree Roots removal service for more information.
First step is to identify the cause of the blockage using a drain camera unless its obvious or clearly visible to the technician. For both residential and commercial units, Sewerman uses an industrial grade electric drain snake. The snaking line is inserted into the blocked drainpipe that rotates with a metal cutter at tip. The high torque rotation action of the cutter shreds everything in the drainpipe that is causing the blockage. The machine has multiple types of cutters to suite your unique situation.
