When To Call TLC For Drain Service

It’s best to have your drains cleaned before an emergency happens. If you’re noticing any of the signs below in your Santa Fe home, it’s probably time to call TLC to clean your drains.

Slow drains - Have you noticed that it’s taking longer and longer for your bathtub, shower, or kitchen sink to drain? If so, there’s most likely a clog that’s preventing water from going down. In the bathroom, the culprit is frequently hair and soap scum buildup. In the kitchen, it’s often due to grease and food waste.

Unpleasant odors - Are there any foul or mysterious odors coming from your drains? It may be the smell of wastewater that isn’t draining all the way into your main sewer line. You could also have a blocked drain vent that isn’t allowing sewer gases to escape.

Gurgling sounds - After running the faucet or shower, if you hear a gurgling sound as the water drains, it’s likely that you have a clog in your main sewer line. The gurgling sound is a sign that there are sewer gases bubbling up in your drain line.

Frequent clogs. Is your shower frequently backed up? Or are you constantly having to deal with a clogged toilet? If you’re frequently dealing with stubborn drains— be it the laundry, bathroom, or kitchen— it’s a sign that you have a blockage in your main sewer line.

Multiple clogged drains. Do you have more than one clogged drain at a time? It’s very likely that your main sewer line is completely clogged. Call TLC’s trusted plumbing technicians to have the drain line cleared: (505) 471-0119.

Emergency drain clearing for a backed-up toilet? No problem for the plumbing pros at TLC

Problem: Patty C. needed an emergency drain clearing for her backed-up toilets. It was a Saturday and she was concerned about finding a plumber who could accommodate a weekend service appointment. After contacting TLC, she was relieved to know that we could dispatch a qualified plumber to her home within 30 minutes.

Solution: After calling her to confirm his arrival, TLC’s expert plumber, Russell, quickly diagnosed Patty’s plumbing problem, and soon discovered a clog within her main sewer line. After thoroughly cleaning out the clog, Russell was able to get Patty’s toilets flushing easily again. Now that all of her drains are flowing freely, Patty is happy to recommend TLC to Santa Fe homeowners looking for prompt and reliable plumbing service.

THE CUSTOMER'S TESTIMONIAL

“We had clogged toilets and a backup on Saturday; called TLC and dispatch had Russell contact me within 10 minutes. He was here within half an hour and had things “flowing” in no time. Russell was very professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. Would definitely recommend this company.”

Clogged Drain FAQs

Here are some common questions our Plumbers in Santa Fe get about clogged drain problems.

It is always recommended to use a professional drain cleaning company when it comes to clearing or cleaning your sewer system. Liquid drain cleaners do not work well. They are an acid that can do more damage to your pipes and fixtures than good. They will sometimes put a temporary band-aid on the situation, but in the process, they will eat up your pipes and may even start a chemical reaction with other cleaning agents.

How can I prevent drain clogs in the first place? To prevent drain clogs from occurring, your plumbing system first has to be in good working order. If you’re purchasing a new home, or aren’t sure about the state of your drain lines, we recommend camera inspections for mainlines to determine if there are any issues that need to be addressed. Second, avoid putting too much food and grease down your disposal. The more food and grease that is put into your kitchen sink, the more sludge will build up causing blockages. Next, put hair strainers on bathroom sink drains and tub/shower drains. This will help to block hair from accumulating in your drain lines. Lastly, and most important, DO NOT FLUSH FOREIGN OBJECTS. Paper towels, feminine hygiene products, and wipes (even the flushable kind) all cause problems with sewer lines.

Cabling or “snaking” the drain will remove a blockage and get your drain flowing again. Sometimes this is a temporary solution if you have a bigger drain problem. If you continue to experience clogs or slow drains after we’ve cabled the line, you could need a more thorough cleaning. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to completely clear the pipes from grease buildup, roots, and other debris that cause commonly cause drainage problems. Cabling and jetting can effectively clear a drain from normal blockages, roots, and even years of grease and sludge buildup. However, descaling the pipe can clear away hard scale buildup, concrete, metal, and more while creating a smooth clean pipe. For this service, we pair the hydro-jetter and a 4-inch cyclone grinding chain to descale your sewer line.
