Bathroom drains
Soap scum and hair gather in the trap under a tub, shower or sink until the water backs up around your feet. We clear the trap and the pipe behind it.
Drain Cleaning in White Plains
A bathtub that holds its water, a kitchen sink that gurgles or a basement floor drain that backs up on laundry day all call for a drain cleared. We clear the line, from a single fixture to the main.
The choice of tool depends on where the stoppage sits, so the work starts by finding out how far down the pipe it is.
Drains we clear
Kitchen sinks
Grease and food scraps narrow the pipe under a kitchen sink. The line is cleared and the trap checked.
Laundry and floor drains
The standpipe behind the washer and the drain in the basement floor take a lot of water at once. When either backs up, the line is cleared from the nearest access.
Main line stoppages
When every drain in the house is slow or the lowest drain backs up, the stoppage is in the main line or the lateral. A camera shows where it is, and a CCTV video of the whole lateral is also what White Plains asks for in the plumber’s certification before a sale for value.
Keeping drains clear
A drain strainer in the tub and shower, scraps kept out of the kitchen sink and grease poured into a can instead of down the pipe all slow the buildup that leads to a stoppage.
Frequently asked questions
Can a drain visit include a camera inspection?
Yes. When a stoppage sits deep in the line, a camera shows what is blocking the pipe and whether the pipe itself is damaged.
Is a pipe cracked below the yard, or a trap weeping under a vanity? Read sewer line repair or fixture repair. The homepage covers the rest of the work for White Plains.
