What Causes Clogged Drains?

Isn’t It Wonderful When They’re Working?

When they aren’t…well…it can change your world. When the bad stuff won’t go away, experienced Seattle Plumbers can be a lifesaver!

Interior drain lines, like clogged kitchen sink drains, slow bathroom drains and plugged toilets are a hassle.  We can usually fix these problems in short order with our drain cleaning equipment and years of experience.

Sometimes, drain problems are outside of your home in the side sewer system. The side sewer is the section of sewer line that removes waste from your house and carries it to the city’s sewer line in the street. As registered Side Sewer Contractors, we have the qualifications and experience to repair your exterior sewer lines as well.

These sewer issues crop up due to a number of reasons. Sewers can collapse due to age, above-ground construction work, and tree roots, just to name a few. Just like roots can wreak havoc with city sidewalks, they can break into the sewer when trees are looking for water and “nutrients”.

These exterior sewer lines are larger in diameter, and can be snaked, jetted, video inspected, dug up and repaired, and even rehabilitated with minimal damage to your landscaping in many circumstances.

Rehabilitating your sewer line without extensive excavation and damage to your landscaping is done using pipe lining or pipe bursting technology. Many contractors call this “trenchless” sewer repair.

Whichever option you choose, you can trust us to tell you the truth and get you back up and running as soon as possible.

Open Interior Clogged Drains – Drain Line Cleaning & Repair in Seattle

We Are THE Solution For All Of Your Seattle Plumbing Problems!

Every home has multiple drains – kitchen drains, bathroom drains, laundry room drains, floor drains, basement drains, a building’s main drain, etc. When they work smoothly and as designed, life is good; but when there’s a problem?

With a simple maintenance program you can save yourself from costly headaches at the most inopportune times (like, with a house full of people), and ensure your drains run smoothly. And, of course, should the need arise – or back up, as they say — we’ll be there to quickly resolve any drain problem, large or small.

  • Slow drains to full main sewer line replacements; we do it all in drains.
  • Removing potato peels from the kitchen drain trap.
  • High-pressure jetting of grease-chocked kitchen drains.

Kitchen drains, laundry drains, bathroom drains, floor drains, and even main drains and sewer lines are all notorious for backing up. When your drain is plugged, you can expect a quick and quality resolution each and every time, with such services as:

  • A cable to open the line.
  • A camera inserted into the line to ascertain the problem and show you clearly what further steps are necessary. We will provide such services as jetting the line to clear it, or repairing or replacing the line, as necessary, to remove any low spots or bellies in the line where grease and sludge collect and could clog it again.
  • Once the condition of the line has been determined, we will offer the appropriate warranty on our work
  • A typical warranty on drain cleaning is 30 days.

What Causes Clogged Drains?

Clogged drains may have a number of different causes, depending on where the actual clog originates. In the bathroom, things like soap, hair, dead skin, toilet paper and feminine hygiene projects all contribute to clogging drains. In the kitchen, the most likely culprits are food scraps and cooking grease. Clogged drains can happen from the outside, too. If you have trees on your property, the roots may end up growing toward your pipes and sometimes right into the pipes, causing serious clogs. Most drain clogs could have been prevented with some assertive actions from you and your family members, but it takes a team effort to keep unnecessary items out of the drains.

When to Call for Help

Generally, you should consider calling for help when your drain clearing efforts stop working, and your efforts should consist of a standard plunger and little else. Trying to use snakes and chemicals to clear a clogged drain will usually make the predicament worse, so if your plunger doesn’t work, call a plumber and have it done properly. There may be years’ worth of sludge and crud caked onto the insides of your pipes, and a professional will be able to diagnose and treat the problem as quickly as possible. In the most extreme cases, your plumber will implement a technique known as hydrojetting. This method uses blasts of water that are up to 4,000 psi, making quick work of anything in its path.

What Our Clients Say

Gene Johnson plumbing installed a new toilet for us, it was great working with them! Ishmael gave us estimates for various options, and we decided to buy our own toilet and have them come back to do the installation. Krystal did the install, and she was clean, efficient, very pleasant to work with, and the job was done quickly! It was also easy to schedule the work to be done. I would definitely work with them again!

– Lisa Henry

Another exceptional service call!…Alex was a true expert and he was very thorough and was patient while we went through our list of plumbing goals during this thorough full house inspection. He was able to give us some cost estimates on the spot. I certainly feel like I’m in the best hands and look forward to moving forward with our project.

– Ivan Archer

I had a new water heater installed with Gene Johnson this week and I was very happy with the whole experience. Eric Sams was my technician and he was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and really took the time to explain my options to me. We have “unique” water heater systems in my place and he really knew what he was doing, I knew I could trust him. The installation was scheduled quickly and works/looks great!

– Ashley Curtin

Great experience with Branson! Very friendly, knowledgeable, and the quote was accurate. Needed shut-off valves installed on my house from the 40s, existing lines were galvanized steel, so that made things tricky. He outlined several options and recommendations, and we settled on something that will be compatible and easy to work with for future kitchen remodel plans. Will definitely be calling Gene Johnson again when it’s time to do more plumbing work!

– Brian Munn

I reached out to Gene Johnson regarding my radiant heating not working properly. They were able to come by within the next day to take a look. Tech Mike F was very knowledgeable and honest regarding next steps and questions my wife and I had. We proceeded to replace the Manifold and add a magnetic separator to my unit. Heat is now working! :)

– Phil Maaa

Prompt, informative, professional, friendly – very happy with service today.

– Francy M

Carlos was terrific!  He had the necessary parts on hand – he explained the problem, the solution, cleaned up after himself and now I don’t have water dripping under the sink!  Thank you Carlos!
