About Our Langley Drain Cleaning Services
Is your wastewater disposal system very much due for drain cleaning? Langley property owners can trust our drain experts to find and implement the right drainage solution to get the water flowing again.
HydroScrub® Jetting
Hydro-mechanical drain cleaners blast away build-up inside your wastewater lines and push it through the system with high-pressure water jets that unclog drains and leave nothing behind that could form another clog in the near future. They're strong enough to cut through compacted tree roots with a minimum of 1,500 psi (pound-force per square inch) of pressure. Compare that to a common faucet, which typically produces pressures of about 40 to 60 psi.
Eliminating clogs isn't all that hydro jetting can do. Because it removes debris and sticky substances clinging to the walls of your pipes, it makes it far more difficult for blockages to reappear right away because they have nothing to hold on to. That means you don't have to worry about clogs and other nasty problems from dirty drains such as sewer backups. The cleaning process also extends the life expectancy of your wastewater pipes so they don't suffer as much wear and tear damage over time.
Enzymatic Drain Care
Harsh chemical cleaners can actually damage your pipes by corroding the inside of the lines until they're seriously weakened and at risk for leaks. That chemical drain cleaner can also make its way into bodies of water or groundwater around Langley, where they have a negative impact on our local environmental health. We use an eco-friendly solution containing natural enzymes that eat away at blockage-causing substances, leaving your pipes sparkling clean and in great shape.

Frequently Asked Questions About Drain Cleaning in Langley, BC
How Can I Avoid Clogged Drains in the Future?
The best way to make sure you never have to deal with another clogged drain ever again is regular drain cleaning. Langley property owners can get the peace of mind that comes with knowing their wastewater disposal lines are free and clear by investing in annual Langley drain cleaning services to remove clogs before they have a chance to disrupt your household's daily routines.
That being said, it's also really important to be aware of what you're letting into your wastewater lines. As the name suggests, they're really only built to handle wastewater and in the case of toilets, human waste and toilet paper. You can't really avoid soap scum, but almost everything else can and should be kept out of your drains to avoid future problems, especially fat, oil, and grease.
Do Baking Soda and White Vinegar Work for Drain Cleaning?
If you're looking for a homemade solution, you may have come across a DIY drain cleaner that basically involves pouring a cup of vinegar and a cup of baking soda down your drain. Vinegar is a mild acetic acid, so it fizzes when it makes contact with baking soda. While we do understand the appeal of making a mini volcano in your drain, it's not likely to actually do much. It may help a bit for regular cleaning of a couple of inches of pipe below your drain opening, but it's not going to be as effective at removing a clog as simply using a plunger. Other DIY methods like using cola or pouring a pot of boiling water down your drain aren't necessarily great ideas either—the boiling water might help, but that pot of boiling water comes with both risks of injury and risks of damage to your plumbing.
Can a Plunger Make a Clog Worse Rather Than Better?
Yes, that is possible. A plunger really is an effective, easy-to-use tool to deal with basic clogs, but sometimes you run into a problem that just can't be dislodged by suction. Instead, the plunging action just compacts the clog and worsens it, making it a lot harder. While the flow of wastewater may have only been partially blocked before, plunging can result in total blockage. If that happens, the best course of action is to call your local plumber for Langley drain cleaning service so we can bring out the professional tools and get it dealt with quickly.
