Answers to frequently asked drain cleaning questions from Somersworth homeowners.
Most Somersworth 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 Somersworth 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.
Drain snaking uses a rotating cable to break through or pull out blockages. It is effective for hair clogs and localized obstructions but leaves residue on pipe walls. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the full pipe interior, removing grease, scale, and root intrusion completely. For main sewer lines and recurring clogs, hydro-jetting provides more thorough and longer-lasting results.
Recurring drain clogs in Somersworth 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.
