Shower and Bath drains Hair and soap blockage are usually the reason for buildup in the trap and drainpipe. When you’re taking a shower you should never see standing water in the base or tray. Properly functioning drains should carry the water away almost instantly. If water covers the shower floor and your feet, you have a blocked shower drain, which will eventually become completely blocked causing damp in your wall. A technician will use drain cleaning machines to clear the drain of any and all debris, restoring it to new condition.
Bathroom basin drains may become clogged with hair, toothpaste, soap and grime. Dow- Jones provides many bathroom plumbing solutions and basin drains are one of the more common problems we solve. Dow- Jones will clear the blockage and thoroughly clean the entire pipe system so your basin will drain like new.
Toilet drains are sometimes overwhelmed with toilet paper and foreign objects. Dow- Jones can solve the problem with an Electro mechanical rotor machine that feeds spinning springs into the toilet drain. The springs have a special clip in the blade system on the tip, that will cut through any obstruction while hugging the inside wall of the pipe, thoroughly cleaning it to restore full drainage and full flushes.
Floor drains are common in restaurants, laundry rooms and industrial kitchens. They may also be found on patios and driveways as well as older bathrooms. These drains are equipped with a trap that should be kept filled with water to prevent odors and sewer gas from escaping. Dirt and debris can clog floor drains but Dow- Jones can open them quickly to restore good drainage.
Main sewer lines are the largest drains in a home. All other household drains lead to the main sewer line or man hole. The main sewer runs underground from the house and connects to a municipality or a septic tank. Your main sewer line can become blocked from the debris those other household drains wash into it or by tree roots that penetrate pipe joints from surrounding soil.
If the main sewer line blocks, toilets and drains throughout your house will begin to backup. This is usually a very stressful situation for homeowners and it can happen at any time of the day or night. That’s why Dow- Jones is your 24 hour plumbing company.
A technician using Electro Mechanical Rotor machine will cut through the blockage and clear the main sewer pipe right down to its inner walls. If the technician has any indication that there is a problem with the main sewer line, he may perform a CCTV drain inspection to determine if the pipe is damaged or corroded. The technician will share the video with the homeowner and present options for sewer line dig and repair or replacement if necessary.
