How to Know When It’s Time to Schedule Drain Cleaning Services

Andrew Kyle • May 20, 2019

Drain cleaning isn’t one of those services that you probably think about scheduling for your home. We’re a plumbing company that’s committed to providing sound plumbing services for Sugar Land residents, but we’re not unreasonable. We know that the average homeowner thinks about their plumbing system as an “out of sight, out of mind” type of system. That’s why we’d like to bring your attention to your drain cleaning services as often as possible.

Drain cleaning isn’t one of those things that you need to schedule an appointment for on an annual basis, but if you haven’t had a drain cleaning service in a while then it’s time to call up our technicians. We specialize in  Sugar Land drain cleaning. We have all the right tools, time, and knowledge to get your plumbing system in shape.

Signs That It’s Time to Schedule Your Drain Cleaning Services

If you’re experiencing one or more of these problems in your home make sure you call us today.

  • Slow Draining Water : If your sinks, showers, and tubs are slow to drain it’s a big sign that there’s probably a significant amount of sludge hiding deep down in your plumbing system.
  • Increased Water Bills : Do you wince when you get your water bill? If your pipe has a lot of build-up on the walls it can lower your water pressure. When your plumbing is forced to work much harder than it has to you’ll notice the strain in your bill. A high water bill is a big reason to call a professional for assistance.
  • Foul Odors : When waste and other byproducts start to build up and stick to the walls of your piping it can give off a bad odor. It’s usually particularly noticeable if it comes from your kitchen sink drain, but it’s also noticeable in your bathroom too. Make sure you note the source of these odors and call a professional plumber sooner than later.
  • Gurgling Sounds : When your tub or sink drains do you hear a startling gurgling sound? Gurgling sounds happen because there’s air trapped in your pipe from a partial clog of a significant amount of buildup. The sound is created when the air is released after the water moves through your drain. You can think of this sound as an alarm alerting you to call a professional for help—make sure you make that professional a member of our team.
  • Frequent Clogging : Do you have that one annoying drain in your home that’s always backing up? Are you also using store-bought drain cleaners or your own elbow grease to clear the clog? The chances are that you’re not really alleviating the entire clog or build-up in your home. Having a professional plumber from our team come out and clean your drain can rid you of this problem in your home once and for all.

We provide great drain cleaning services here at Doug Turner Plumbing CO.  Make sure you schedule an appointment with our team today if you’re ready to boost the overall quality of your home.
