Q: Is hiring a drain cleaner worth it?

• <div><p>Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.</p></div>

Q: Do water bugs come up drains?

• <div><p>Yes, drains are one common entry point for water bugs. However, water bugs may enter your home through various locations including doors, windows, pipes, and vents.

You can stop water bugs from entering through drains by regularly cleaning your drains and repairing faulty drainage systems. </p></div>

Q: Why is my basement floor drain backing up?

• <div><p>There are many things that could cause your basement floor drain to back up.

Other causes of a backed-up basement floor drain include tree roots impeding the drain pipe or an accumulation of hair, oil, and grease. </p></div>

Q: How often should you hydro jet your sewer line?

• <div><p>The best practice is to hydro jet your sewer line once per year.

Roto-Rooter came out to clear the drain. After a few days the drain start running slow again. They came right back out and spent time to go over everything again and make sure they cleared the clog. Very responsive and very friendly. I will use them the next time I have a problem.
