If one or more drains are backed up in your house, water flow does not have a clear path & will start to back-flow. It’s best to catch the problem now before it escalates Essig to have your drains unclogged ASAP.
Clogs can often get forced deeper into your piping where they eventually end up in your sewer line. The sewage then cannot flow properly into the Reading, PA sewer system, so with nowhere to go, the sewage flows back through your kitchen & bathroom drains. Before the mess occurs, call your Reading, PA drain cleaning experts at Essig to unclog that pesky blockage.
Water pooling at your feet in the shower? Sink water not flowing quickly & pooling in the basin? It’s likely your drain has an obstruction. You may have some luck clearing it yourself, but most drain blockages leave debris & residue, which is best left for the expert plumbers at Essig to professional clean out.
Are you noticing an unpleasant stench around an appliance such as your tub or sink? If it’s not the trash, chances are you have a buildup of food, organic waste, or other smelly materials in your drain that need a clean-out.
We recommend having your drains inspected and cleaned at least once a year, or more if you experience frequent clogs. Summer is a great time to schedule your annual drain clearing service as increased water usage during this season can often reveal hidden issues in your plumbing.
Chemical drain cleaners can be harsh on your pipes, especially if used frequently. Our technicians generally recommend that you avoid drain cleaners if possible, and opt for our professional drain clearing services instead. When it comes to stubborn clogs, leave it the pros at Essig!
Yes! Reading, PA summer storms can wash dirt, leaves, and other debris into your outdoor drains, causing blockages and clogs. Keeping your outdoor drains clear will help prevent flooding and water damage during rainy weather.
Absolutely! Tree roots are highly active during the summer, constantly seeking sources of water. They can even grow into your underground pipes, causing significant blockages. Regular camera inspections and maintenance with our team can help prevent major issues caused by tree roots.
With summer comes barbecues, outdoor activities, and extra gatherings, but all of these activities can put extra strain on your plumbing system. To avoid unnecessary clogs, avoid pouring grease or food scraps down your kitchen sink, and remind family and guests to throw hair and other debris in the trash instead of down the drain. Lastly, if you do run into a stubborn clog, call (610) 215-9512 to schedule a top-rated drain clearing service as soon as you can!
