Clogged Pipes And Drains

Clogged pipes and drains can take a toll on your plumbing. Most clogged drains can be fixed with little to no damage to existing pipes. most of the time a clog just requires either high pressure air or a snake device pushed through the pipe to release the clog. In some non common cases the pipe needs to be taken apart or cut and the clog removed depending on what is clogged in the pipe. Sometimes young kids like to stick items into the toilets or drains, and half the time the home owner or person occupying the home has no idea that their child had stuck something down the toilet and or drain. Most of the time it will pass through but there are occasions that the item weather a towel or something thick and heavy will not pass through the pipping and the pipe will need to be disassembled the items removed and then the pipe replaced or put back together. There are several different types clogged drains and pipes that we run into but non that cannot be fixed with in a timely manner
This Is A Picture Of A Drain That Is Taken Apart With Clumps Of Hair Hanging Out Of A Sink Drain. Picture Taken In Erie Pa
For the plumbers of Erie Pa we see a lot of sink drain clogs due to hair.  Some elderly people tend to wash their hair in sinks and the drain pipes in sink are usually a lot smaller then sinks in the shower or bath tub area. After a while the hair will start to build up, When that happens other items can get trapped in in the hair and cause it to "clump up" after that it just starts to build and build and build. You will notice that when using the sink the water will take longer to drain and you will most likely see bubbles come up very slowly. You will also notice if you plunge it, it will help and the water will go down faster but sometimes plunging is only a temporary fix for a much larger problem. Plunging may work the first couple times then you will notice after time it will take more and more plunging to get the water to move showing you, you now have a bigger problem and the piping will need to be removed cleaned or removed and replaced with new piping. 95% of the time the pipes can be cleaned out and put back together with no major repairs or bills to fix the issue.
This Is A Picture Of A Sewer Line That Is Clogged Up When Taken Apart To Be Repaired Picture Taken In Erie Pa
Clogged or broken sewer lines are another issue we have seen a couple times. More times then not the sewer lines are old and made out of cast iron and what tends to happen (if not deep enough) they tend to break from vehicles driving overhead and the ground shifting and settling. Roots also are a big problem for sewer lines as they will just grow and crack them. Then the issue becomes us digging up your yard to find your line and replacing the whole thing from your house to the street with high grade PVC. that can handle tons of force on top of it, inside of it and all around it.

This Is A Picture Of The Inside Of A Water Pipe That Has Been Correded From Water And Over Time Taken In Erie Pa
Clogged drains and drain pipes are one thing. Sometimes copper pipes start to break down with Lime and scale deposits and it starts to make the hole where your water will pass through smaller and thinner. When this happens you will have sometimes high water pressure in some parts of the house but a smaller stream. Usually on the floor closest to the ruined pipe. When we run into these pipes there is no option to clean them. As they are old and have lots of build up of scale rust and deposits they need to be removed and replaced with new piping. If not the problem will continue. We usually inspect all pipes and work backwards to the problem and make sure they are clear from both sides of the issue that way it will prevent issues in the near future and us having to come back to replace another pipe. We do the job right the first time that is why you can count on the Plumbers of Erie pa to take care of your issues the right way.
