Q: How often should I have my sewer line inspected?

• <div><p>It's advisable to have your sewer line inspected every three to five years to ensure its proper functioning and detect any potential issues early on. However, the frequency of inspections can vary based on factors such as the age of your sewer system, the type of pipes used, and your property's location. If you notice any warning signs like slow drains, foul odors, or sewage backups, it's essential to schedule an inspection promptly, regardless of the regular maintenance schedule. </p></div>

Q: Can you dissolve hair in a drain?

• <div><p>It might be possible to dissolve hair caught in a drain, but it&rsquo;s usually not a good way to go about clearing the clog. Some sources mention that baking soda and vinegar can do the trick, but this won&rsquo;t actually dissolve the hair. The hydrochloric acid in drain cleaners can dissolve the hair over time, but it will much more quickly destroy your plumbing pipes and leave you with bigger issues. The best way to remove hair is to do it manually with a drain snake or to have a plumber use an auger to pull clogs out.</p></div>

Q: What factors affect drain clearing costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on clog severity, pipe condition, equipment required, and labor.</p></div>

Q: Can I clean my sewer myself?

• <div><p>You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It&rsquo;s always best to hire a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/sewer-cleaners/">professional sewer cleaner near you</a> to handle this type of work.</p></div>

Q: What are common causes of commercial drain blockages?

• <div><p>Food grease, soap buildup, paper products, and tree roots often cause serious clogs.</p></div>
