What Dover homeowners want to know about drain cleaning — answered by our licensed plumbers.
Most Dover homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years as preventive maintenance. Kitchen drains in households that cook frequently may need annual service. Homes with large trees near the sewer line should have the main line inspected and cleared annually to prevent root buildup from causing backups.
Yes. Tree roots are one of the most common causes of sewer line problems in Dover neighborhoods with mature trees. Roots enter through small cracks or joints in older sewer lines and grow inside the pipe, eventually causing recurring blockages, complete blockages, or pipe collapse. Annual hydro-jetting and a root treatment can control root growth and extend line life.
Chemical drain cleaners are generally not recommended for Dover homes with older plumbing. The caustic chemicals can accelerate corrosion in metal pipes and degrade older PVC joints over time. They also rarely clear blockages completely and can make the problem worse by causing debris to compact. Professional drain cleaning by Phoenician Plumbing is safer and more effective.
Recurring drain clogs in Dover homes usually indicate an underlying issue beyond the immediate blockage — pipe scale that makes the interior rough and catches debris, a partially collapsed pipe section, persistent root intrusion, or an improperly sloped pipe that allows solids to settle. Phoenician Plumbing uses camera inspection to identify the root cause of recurring drain problems.
