FAQ About Plumbing Services
Have questions about your home's plumbing? Here are answers to some of the most commonly asked questions.
Do plumbers fix drain pipes?
Yes, plumbers are fully equipped to handle drain pipe repairs and replacements. They have skills and tools to figure out exactly what's wrong with your drain, whether it's a stubborn clog, a broken pipe, or something else lurking deeper in the system.
Should I buy a drain snake or call a plumber?
Drain snakes can be lifesavers for those pesky clogs, especially in easy-to-reach spots like your kitchen sink. However, if you're facing a stubborn clog or recurring clog, it's best to call a professional.
Plumbers have the skills and tools to diagnose the clog culprit. They might use a snake, but they also have other tricks up their sleeves to get things flowing again. Plus, they can spot any hidden pipe problems a snake wouldn't fix.
So, while a drain snake can be a handy tool, for tougher clogs, it's best to call in the pros and avoid any plumbing heroics that could backfire.
How do you tell if you have a clogged vent pipe?
Clogged vent pipes can be tricky to identify. Here are a few signs to watch for:
- Slow drains throughout your house: If multiple drains in your home are draining slowly, it could indicate a clog in the main vent pipe that serves the entire system.
- Gurgling sounds from drains: Hear some gurgling noises coming from your drains? This can happen when air gets trapped due to a blockage in the vent system.
- Sewer gas odors: Vent pipes help vent out unpleasant sewer gases. If yours is clogged, those odors might start wafting back up into your home.
If you experience any of these signs, it's best to call a professional plumber. They can diagnose the issue and get your vent pipe back in order.
What does a bathroom vent pipe look like?
Bathroom vent pipes are typically located on the roof of your house and look like a small pipe, often capped or screened, extending from the plumbing vent system. They may be made of plastic or metal and are usually not very wide in diameter. However, the specific appearance of your vent pipe may vary depending on your home's design and construction.
What is the difference between a plumber and a drain cleaner?
Plumbers are licensed professionals that can diagnose a wide range of plumbing issues, from leaky faucets to malfunctioning water heaters. They have the tools and training to tackle even intricate problems and ensure everything functions smoothly, all according to code.
Drain cleaners specialize in clearing clogged drains. They're equipped with tools like drain snakes and water jets to clear blockages and get your water flowing freely again. Drain cleaners may be a good option for simple clogs, but they might not be able to address the underlying cause of the clog or fix more complex plumbing problems.
How can I prevent clogged drains?
No one wants to deal with clogged drains, so here’s some tips to keep your plumbing system running smoothly:
- Use drain screens for your sinks and tubs
- Avoid pouring grease or oil down the drain
- Don't flush non-flushable items
- Regularly clean your drains
- Avoid grinding hard items in the garbage disposal
While these tips will help prevent clogs, you may still encounter them. If a clog seems too tough to handle, don't hesitate to call a professional plumber.
