Common Drain Issues and
Hendrick's Repair Solutions
Ranging from minor to major, drains can encounter a number of problems. Some of the common issues we see are:
Slow Draining Sinks and Bathtubs
Often, this can result from hair and soap scum build-up.
Odors from Drains
This is usually caused by flushing inappropriate materials or an accumulation of waste.
Toilet Clogs
Persistent sewage or rotten food smells emanating from drains could indicate a problem with the trap or vent system, or a buildup of bacteria and debris.
Multiple Fixture Blockages
When multiple plumbing fixtures like sinks, toilets, and tubs clog simultaneously, it’s often a sign of a problem with the main drain system.
Water Flooding in Basement
This is often caused by a clogged floor drain, leading to water backup and potential flooding, especially during heavy rains.
Sewer System Backups
These require immediate attention and can be a sign of major blockages or sewer line damage.
For each of these problems, we have a solution. The Hendrick Team will assess the situation and provide a strategy that minimizes disruption to your home.
Clog Removal Solutions
Clogs are a frequent nuisance to any drainage system, but they don't have to be a persistent issue. We tackle them with:
Mechanical Drain Snaking
This is a tried-and-true method for breaking up clogs within pipes.
Small Kitchen Sink Jetting
For tougher blockages under bathroom or kitchen sinks, this method uses lower-pressure jetting streams to clear away grease, food particles, or other small blockages.
Drain Repair Techniques
When a simple clog removal isn't enough, we have a plan to combat the problem.
Pipe Bursting
For severely damaged pipes, this technique replaces the old pipe by breaking it apart and installing a new one in its place.
