  • How can you tell if your main Drain line is blocked?

    Numerous signs may suggest that your main sewer line is blocked:

    1. Multiple clogged drains: If various drains in your home are frequently clogging or backing up, it may be a sign that the main sewer line is blocked.
    2. Slow-moving or gurgling drains: If the water takes a long time to drain from your sinks, tubs, or toilets, or if you hear gurgling noises when you run the water, it may be a sign that the main sewer line is blocked.
    3. Sewage backup: If sewage starts to back up into your home through your drains or toilet, it is a clear sign that the main sewer line is blocked.
    4. Foul odors: If you notice a strong, unpleasant smell coming from your drains, it may signal the main sewer line is blocked.

    If you believe that your main sewer line is blocked, it is essential to contact a professional plumbing company like Oosterveld Heating as soon as possible.

  • How is the main drain cleaned?

    The central drain line in a home is typically cleaned using a process called hydro jetting. This involves using specialized equipment called a hydro jet, a high-pressure water hose with a specialized nozzle attached to the end. The hydro-jet is inserted into the main drain line, and the water is turned on, creating a powerful stream of water that can blast through any clogs or debris blocking the drain. Another technique is called “scouring,” which consists of using the hydro jet to scrub the inside walls of the drain line, removing any buildup or residue that may be present.

    In addition to hydro jetting, the main drain line can also be cleaned using mechanical means such as drills or snakes, which are long, flexible rods with a specialized tip inserted into the drain and used to break up and remove the blockage physically. These methods can be effective in some cases, but they are generally less effective and more labor-intensive than hydro jetting.

    At Oosterveld Heating, we use a variety of industrial tools and hydro-jet equipment that allows us to effectively clean drain lines in all conditions. As such, if you are in need of a professional plumbing team to help you with your drain line, book your appointment with Oosterveld Heating in Guelph today!

  • What is the duration of a main drain cleaning?

    Generally speaking, your appointment can take anywhere between half an hour to 5 hours, depending on the severity and state of your home’s current drain line.

  • How frequently should your main drain be cleaned?

    Generally speaking, homeowners should aim to have their home’s main drain line professionally cleaned at least once every year and a half to two years to ensure the line remains clear of debris that could end up causing flooding in their home. With that being said, if your home is showing signs that there may be a clog somewhere along your drain line, it is highly essential that homeowners reach out to a professional plumbing company for assistance as soon as possible. This can help you avoid damage to your home that could end up being extensive and costly.
