Sinks, toilets, dishwashers, and washing machines need drains to remove wastewater from your home. When the drain system in your Mount Airy, NC, home is cracked, burst, or backed up, you need fast and reliable drain service. Whatever your drain issue is, the knowledgeable team at Jay’s Heating, Air, and Plumbing can keep your drain flowing smoothly.
Signs You Need Drain Services
Many drain issues start as small problems. Left unchecked, these problems can become big issues, leading to water or property damage and costly repairs. Common signs of drain issues include:
- Gurgling toilet
- Slow draining sinks
- Pooling water in your yard
- A greener lawn patch in your yard
- Foul odors
- Clogged drains
- Mold or mildew growth
It’s tempting to try DIY solutions for your drain issues, but that can just push the problem further down the line and lead to a disaster. A burst pipe leaking sewage into your backyard on a hot and humid Mount Airy day can ruin your summer plans. A professional plumber inspects and assesses your system and provides actionable long-term solutions to ensure everything runs smoothly.
Drain Services We Offer
The friendly team at Jay’s has the experience and advanced tools to repair and service any drain issue in your Mount Airy home.
Drain cleaning
Sometimes, you can unclog a slow or backed-up drain on your own using hot water and a plunger. Chemical drain cleaners may damage drain pipes if the cleaner remains stagnant in the pipes. Drain cleaning services, including snaking or hydro jetting, are the best choice for stubborn or frequent clogs.
Hydro jetting
Soapscum, grease, food residue, and other gunk build up along the walls of your drain pipes. Over time, this buildup can cause complete blockages, leading to sewage back-ups in your home. Hydro jetting uses pressurized water to flush your entire drain system without the use of harsh chemicals.
Hydro jetting your system every year or two years can limit clogs, decrease repair frequency, and extend the service life of your drain system.
Drain repair
Jay’s offers comprehensive drain repairs, from gurgling toilets to whole-home repiping. We have the tools to inspect your system and pinpoint the exact cause of your drain issue.
Wondering if that silver maple is invading your drain pipe? We can tell you. Are your pipes cracked or leaking? We’ll find out! We use the latest tools and top-quality supplies that meet North Carolina plumbing codes. Our licensed plumbers have advanced training in minimally invasive repair methods, like cured-in-place pipelining.
Backflow testing
Backflow occurs when contaminated water reverses and enters your clean water line. Backflow can happen after heavy rains, storms, and flooding if you don’t have a main water line backflow preventer or your preventer is faulty.
Backflow contamination can cause serious health concerns, and the sudden addition of heated backflow into the cold water lines may lead to burst pipes. The sooner this issue is detected, the sooner it can be repaired. We have the equipment to inspect and detect backflow issues.
Preventative Maintenance
You can help prevent drain issues in your home with careful planning and clear house rules.
Plant water-loving trees far away from your home. Maple, birch, poplar, aspen, willow, and cottonwood trees are some of the worst trees for root invasion.
Your pipes can take a lot of waste, but keep it within reason. Cotton swabs, paper towels, sanitary pads, compostable wipes, diapers, bacon fat, toys, and broken glass are just a handful of the items that don’t belong in your drains or toilets. Put up signs to let everyone know the rules.
Gunk can build up in your pipes. To keep the upper section of your pipes clean, pour hot water down the drain at least once a month.
The best way to prevent drain problems is with professional drain maintenance. Regular drain maintenance can decrease costly repairs, prevent water and sewage damage, and extend the life of your system. Have your system serviced once every two years or yearly as part of your annual whole-house plumbing maintenance.
