1. Consider a hair-filter - Our West Palm Beach drain cleaning professionals clean hair out of the shower drain regularly. These hair-stoppers are cheap pieces of plastic that go right on top of your drain and save your wallet and drains from the constant need for drain cleaning.

2. A lint-trap for your washing machine - When your washing machine is done washing clothes, the dirt and debris don't magically disappear. They'll go through the drain line into your sewer but after enough time that drain line will get clogged and your machine won't drain as quickly.

3. Rinse your drains regularly - We get away with not cleaning our drains because we can't see them, but to avoid needing our West Palm Beach drain cleaning technicians you should rinse them regularly with warm water and vinegar.

4. Be careful about what goes down the drain or garbage disposal - Rice, pasta, coffee grounds, egg shells, celery and bones should all be discarded in the trash. Collect old cooking grease and oils in a used milk carton too because they'll latch onto the side of your pipes and block food that's passing by.

Sewer Line Cleaning

If you are dealing with a backed up sewer line, we recommend hiring a qualified West Palm Beach plumber to help you resolve the issue instead of trying to remove the clog yourself. Clogs like these need to be resolved quickly or the problem will escalate and can lead to backups of wastewater. Hi-Tech Plumbing & Air, Inc. is an expert in providing rooter and drain services in Palm Beach County.

Signs You Need Sewer Cleaning

1. Gurgle - If you ever hear bubbling coming from one unused plumbing appliance while you're using another, it's likely because the air in your sewer isn't ventilating properly. The air coming up through your water means pressure is building so call in our West Palm Beach sewer cleaning experts ASAP.

2. Multiple slow drains - One slow drain means you need drain cleaning, but if you're noticing that a few of your drains are being slow to drain then it's likely a clog in your sewer line.

3. Foul smells - If your sewer is clogged, there may be nowhere else for those smells to go but up. If your basement or bathroom smells more foul than normal then it's likely you need sewer cleaning.

4. More bugs or animals in your yard then normal - If you have a leak in your sewer line it could be because there is a clog so severe that it's cracked your line and is seeping nutrients into your soil.

5. Water coming up from under your yard - Another indication that you might need our West Palm Beach sewer cleaning professionals is that you have water coming up from under your yard. The sewer line is leaking for some reason and it could be because of a clog.
