At Boss Plumbing, we believe in doing things right the first time. We are a well-established commercial plumbing service, and we’ve served LA and surrounding communities for over 30 years. Drain cleaning is one of the main things we do here, for both residential homes and commercial businesses. We’ve had plenty of experience, and we know the best way to clean a clogged drain, and prevent any future issues.

Can I Unclog My Own Drains?

One thing we tell every client that is essential is about drain cleaners. Drano is a well-known drain cleaner that has been on the market for many years. Professional plumbers dislike this product because it can damage your sewer pipes and can harm you if not used correctly.

Let your plumber use the proper chemicals if this is what they feel is the best option. There are plenty of other options available before jumping to Drano that could hurt your system, especially for commercial properties. If you want to try cleaning out your drains yourself, you can try a mixture of vinegar and hot water monthly to help clean out sewer lines. If this doesn’t work, call a professional plumber who is qualified to work on commercial properties. They may decide to thread a camera through your pipes to make sure you have no other problems aside from debris buildup, and then fix the problem for you.

How Often Should Sewer Lines Be Cleaned for Commercial Properties to Prevent Clogged Drains?

Commercial sewer lines need cleaning every one to two years by a licensed commercial plumber. A plumber can keep drains clean so that water flows freely through the sewer lines. Continuous heavy use may demand that your commercial plumber clean out your sewer lines more often. Talk this over with your commercial plumber.

Your commercial plumber may opt to use a jet hose to clean out your lines at least every 18 months. Hydro Jetting is a method of drain cleaning, where plumbers use a jet hose that has enough power to slice through any debris buildup if the plumber believes that this may be a problem.

It is best to set up a cleaning schedule with a seasoned and licensed plumbing company, and they will come as scheduled to clean out the sewer lines professionally. These plumbers also examine the plumbing and will do any plumbing repairs to avoid future problems.

How Long Does it Take to Unclog a Commercial Drain?

The time it takes to unclog a sewer line depends on the problem. The plumber may run a camera through the line. This step eliminates any guesswork by the plumber and shows you in real-time the problem.

We can remove the obstruction of debris within a few hours. If the problems are more severe than a clogged drain, we will let you know. Other issues may take more time to remedy. Unlike residential plumbing, commercial properties have much more complex plumbing systems, which presents more opportunity for blockages and issues.
