If the drains in your Rochester, NY home or business are running slow, it’s probably time for a drain cleaning in Rochester NY. You can try to clean them yourself, or you can call your local plumber and let them worry so you don’t have to!
Cleaning Drains On Your Own
If you want to try cleaning your drains yourself first, the easiest way to do so is with a chemical drain cleaner. You can buy these most places where cleaning products are sold. The cleaner will come with instructions, and you will want to be sure to follow those so that you don’t damage your pipes. Usually, you will pour a measured amount of the cleaner down your drain, wait a period of time, and then try running water down your drain again.
You can also rent a snake for drain cleaning in Rochester NY, if you are brave. This can be dangerous because, unless you are trained, it is easy to get the snake stuck in your drain. Make sure you run your snake into the drain slowly and stop at any sign of resistance. In addition, most plumbers advise that you don’t run more than 3-5 feet of snake before you call someone, since running more than that raises your chances of a problem.
