Preventing Drain Clogs

Clogged drains are avoided by creating routines that prevent the chance for drain clogging and performing drain cleaning at routine intervals.

Avoid putting food debris, coffee grounds in your drain plumbing. It is always a good idea to perform the suggestions at routine intervals. There is a number of things you can do in order to avoid clogged drain pipes.

Preventing clogged drain pipes:

Daily:
After use of your shower and sinks, make sure you remove any noticeable hair or other debris that might be around the drain plug.

Do not ever pour grease into your drain plumbing pipes. Never pour cooking grease down the drain plumbing. Grease will harden just as it does when it sits in the pan. However grease will buildup in your pipes over time and prevent water from flowing properly in your drain line, it can also lead to objects becoming hung up in your drain line.

Weekly:
Fill up the sink all the way to the top, then remove the stopper. This will perform a simple flush of the drain line with the sheer weight and volume of the water mass

Monthly:
Check your drain stoppers to make sure that hair or other buildup is remove and water is free to flow down the drain.

Semi-annually:
Turn on the sinks, showers and flush the toilets to allow maximum flow through the main sewer line to move debris out of your sewer line into the main sewer.

What happens if I still get a clogged drain?

Sometimes clogged drains cannot be prevented by the homeowner. You can try the plunger or the drain auger, but if these tools are not successful, then you should call a drain professional to come clean your drain plumbing. Tree roots, rust in the sewer main line and other objects may prevent proper water flow to the sewer. These types of problems cannot typically be handled with hand tools and requires a rooter machine or hydro jetting machine. If you are located in Pinellas County, St. Pete, Dunedin Florida, by all means, please give me a call (727) 265-1911.

Free Drain Cleaning Tips!

Radle Rooter Coupon ($70 Any Drain)
Dennis Radle, Radle Rooter, Owner & Operator

Do you have a clogged drain? I know how it feels! 🙂 The water starts building up around the clogged drain and you get a bad feeling about your plumbing. Many people are strapped for cash and decide to forgo the drain professional and try to clear the clogged drain yourself. There is some good news! Many clogged drain problems are easily corrected without having to call someone to fix your plumbing.

Just about any homeowner should be able to clear most drain clogs in a very short amount of time. Anyone can use these free do-it-yourself household drain cleaning tips!

Before you attempt to pour pollutant chemicals down the drain, try pouring salt down your drain followed by hot boiling water. Continue to flush with very hot tap water until the clog is clear.

A number of drain clogs are caused due to grease buildup. You can try something as simple as pouring dish soap (i.e. Dawn) down your drain followed by hot water.

Drains that drain slowly, you can shake half box of baking soda down the drain. Follow this by using one cup of vinegar. The mix will start to bubble and foam. When the foaming ceases, try running hot water down the drain for a minute or two.

I you believe your drains are clogged with hair and you have the leg hair remover called Nair in your house, you can attempt to pour it down your drain and do not run water through the drain for about a half hour. After allowing the time to pass, pour hot water down the drain. The Nair will continue to work on the build up and hair as it goes further down the drains and pipes.

This one requires a little bit more effort, but if you are able to get to the drain pipe itself, open it up and try using a water hose. Put the hose in the drain pipe and turn the water on. The rushing water will hit the clog and push it through the drain plumbing. And you’ve cleaned your drains with no chemicals!

Another good drain cleaning tip is the old plunger! Buy a second plunger that you will not use in the toilet.  Most people believe that plungers are for the toilet, but keep in mind you can use your separate plunger for different uses, like drain cleaning a sink.  You can also drain clean the bathtub covering the top drain overflow with a wet rag (it must be a wet rag/wash cloth) and plunging the tub drain.  You must plug the overflow in order to be able to plunge the bathtub.  Sometimes this requires removal of the overflow drain cover and sticking the rag in the drain hole.  Be careful not to stick the rag to far in the pipe.  You need to use some pressure when plunging a drain to move the drain obstruction that has created the clog.  After plunging, wait a minute and see if the clog has cleared.  If the clog remains, repeat as necessary.

Are you still having problems will a clogged drain?  No chemical or clogged drain tip will work better than a $30 drain “snake” cleaning  drains.  You can purchase these at your local plumbing or hardware store.  If you are still unable to open your drain clog and you are in St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Tampa Bay, Palm Harbor, Pinellas County, then by all means please call!

Another happy customer in St. Petersburg, FL! The customer called at midnight and water was backing up into their shower! Not good… Generally when you sewer line has a clog, it causes water to come up in the lowest floor drains in your house. In this case, it was the shower.

Phone: (727) 265-1911

Yet another drain problem solved quickly and efficiently in Clearwater, FL. Water was rising through the floor drains of a local resturaunt and I received a call from the restaraunt owner who needed emergency service. Flushing the toilet or running water in the sinks throughout the building was causing water to come up throught the floor drains. Immediate attention was required.

Water rising through resturaunt floor drain

Maintaining sanitary conditions at a resturaunt are of the utmost importance. Water coming through the drains can lead to serious health issues. This drain cleaning required that I removed the toilet in order to get proper access to the drain plumbing. I’ll do what is required to get the job done right! And I’ll smile the whole time! I take pride in doing the job right for you!

This is not a simple clogged drain, but more likely a serious sewer clog. Call Radle Rooter in Pinellas (727) 265-1911. If you’ve already tried the plunger and the drain snake to clear your clogged drain, then you are not likely going to fix the problem.

Complete drain services including hydro jetting that uses high pressure water to clear clogged drain debris. If you have root problems or other types of obstructions in your sewer line causing a clogged drain, sewer rodding can clean out your drain by using a rotary blade to cut through or remove the debris out of your main line.

Main Sewer Line rooter service

If your main sewer line is clogged, I have all the proper equipment on my van to unclog your sewer line, quickly and with a smile. When your main line is clogged even by the smallest of tree roots, toilet paper and other debris can get stuck on the tree roots and buildup can occur. The buildup can get bad enough to make your drainage really slow. Tree roots in your sewer lines can grow to look like a big ball in your sewer line.

Clogged Kitchen Drains

Kitchen drains can become clogged over time and slowly drain or completely stop draining. Food, grease, soap and other debris will decrease the size of your pipe and reduce the drainage flow out of your kitchen sink. Also using a garbage disposal contributes to clogged drains.

Bathroom Sink Clogs

Unclogging bathroom sinks is usually a result of buildup over time due to hair, toothpaste, soap and other debris that may get into the bathroom sink drain.

Bathtub and Shower Clogging

Much like bathroom sinks, shower and tubs often begin showing signs of clogging by draining slowly. When you’re showering and standing in water, that is a good sign that your drains are clogged and are not functioning correctly. If you have water coming up your bathtub drains when using the toilet, sink or other water sources in the house, you like have a more serious sewer clog on your hands. Call your drain professional to unclog your sewer.

Toilet Clog

A toilet clog can occur for numerous reasons. Too much toilet paper, debris or products that should not be flushed down the toilet. Unclogging a toilet drain plumbing can be a fairly easy thing to repair or it may need a drain professional.

If you’re in Pinellas county and need a clogged drain fixed, call the Radle Rooter guy that can provide full service drain cleaning with a smile.

Why is water coming up my floor drain?

Dirty Floor Drain

by Dennis
Phone: 727-265-1911
Serving: Pinellas County, FL, St. Petersburg, Clearwater and surrounding communities.

The floor drain is the lowest drain in your house, restaurant or building. Since water naturally flows towards the earth (using gravity), water must flow downward. However, if your sewer or drains are backed up, then the water will come back up through your floor drain. Almost anything could prevent water from flowing properly. I have many tools to open your drains from rooter/rodding equipment to high pressure water equipment called hydro jetting all in one van.

Water coming out of the floor drain is a sure sign that something is preventing the water from flowing correctly. You should call a sewer & drain professional to come evaluate the situation and make corrections. If you are located in Clearwater, FL, St. Pete, FL or in Pinellas County, FL. Please give me a call 727-265-1911. I offer commercial drain cleaning services and routine maintenance for discounted prices.
