Have you ever wondered how you can prevent a plumbing emergency. Well most clogged drains are preventable and many times your Apopka plumbing will give you warning signs of a potential emergency plumbing back up before there is a problem. Many Florida homeowners put off calling an Apopka plumber thinking that drain cleaners and time will fix their problems when the fact is that the plumbing problems will only get worse. Here are some major warning signs that you need to call a plumber for drain cleaning service:
- Shower/tub not draining or draining very slow: Many times your tub and/or shower are the lowest drain and if you have a back up it will start in the tubs and showers since they are the lowest plumbing fixture. If you have a shower not draining call a plumber as soon as possible.
- Bubbling or gurgling sounds coming from plumbing fixtures: Many times Apopka customers have said they heard bubbling or gurgling weeks before a back up. This is because you have a clog in your main drain and the line is filling up with sewage and as the line fills up, the air is escaping. That is why you hear the gurgling sounds and you should have an Apopka drain cleaning service performed before it is a plumbing emergency.
- Plunging a toilet and it pushes sewage into the tub: This is a major problem and means you need an Apopka drain cleaning plumber service your main drain line when it is clogged. Many people do not realize that all your plumbing is connected to a main drain and if you have a back up it effects your whole house including sinks and laundry. If you plunge your toilet and it goes to your bath do not run your sinks. They will drain because they are the highest plumbing fixture but it will all travel to your tub or toilet causing it to overflow. It is very important to not to ever turn on your laundry machines with a drain issue as we have seen many floods in homes because a customer did not realize the laundry was connected to the same drain and did a load of laundry with a plumbing back up.
