Whoever said an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure might well have had drain pipes in mind. The drains in your Missouri home are one of those things you don’t pay a lot of attention to – until something goes wrong. Keep reading to discover why an annual professional drain cleaning allows your drains to function at their best and is a necessary preventative maintenance service.

  1. Expunge Expenses. A professional drain cleaning ensures your drains flowing fast, smooth, and invisibly. It eliminates serious, costly drain problems and catches weakened drain pipes before they break down and create a larger problem. Bathroom drains, which routinely collect waste, hair and soap scum are ideal candidates for routine professional cleanings.
  2. Block Blockages. Eliminate sluggish drains that cause standing water in your shower and clogs in your kitchen sink. Cleaning drains regularly prevents these blockages. Kitchen drains, which collect food waste, grease, and soapy water benefit greatly from annual cleanings and create a more hygienic environment for meal prep. Sewer drains benefit as well by virtually eliminating overflow from your commode. Yuck!
  3. Develop Duration. Drains that don’t function properly can be a frustrating experience. Avoid using caustic chemicals or unwieldy DIY drain snakes. Instead, extend the lifetime of the plumbing in your home with annual cleanings. This valuable preventive maintenance means your pipes, drains and entire plumbing system last longer and perform better.
  4. Sweeten Smells. Clogged drains, backed up toilets and broken plumbing emit an odor that won’t soon be forgotten. Regular drain cleaning is a cost-effective way to keep the drains in your home free of odors and blockages.

Don’t allow sluggish drains to slow progress in your mid-Missouri home. Call Brian Wear Plumbing today to schedule your professional drain cleaning. Our friendly technicians will have your home free-flowing in no time flat!
