Edina MN Drain Cleaning

Understanding drain lines isn’t always as easy as it may seem. Just cause you come across a clogged drains doesn’t mean it’s going to always be an easy fix. Some are some aren’t. Drain lines that may get clogged in your home or business are:
Sanitary Main Sewer Lines
Floor Drains
Branch Lines
Kitchen & Bath Sinks
Bathtub
Laundry Tubs
Exterior Drains
Garage Drains
Area & Yard drain and many many more!

All drain lines get clogged in different ways. Some get clogged from overuse, some from misuse and abuse. A kitchen sink may get clogged from just use over a period of time or after a large family gathering and having lots of debris put down your garbage disposal or drain line.

Bathroom drain lines get clogged from hair, soap, tooth paste, scum, grit, dirt, sand etc..
Laundry drain lines get clogged from lint, hair, paint and all sorts of grit.
Commercial drains and residential drain are different though they have the same purpose, to move all waste and debris from your drains and into where they tap into the city sewer line.

From time to time most our clients call us on maintenance to clean drains before they back up and get clogged and end up making a huge, smelly, gross mess in their home and/or business. Having maintenance done can give you a piece of mind.
Remember our plumbing and drain cleaning systems work round the clock even when your not using them. Water from condensate lines drain into your floor drains and cause trap and floor drain line to clog and cause a mess as well.

When in need of your next drain and sewer cleaning think of Hiawatha Sewer Service. We look forward to helping you get your drain lines flowing again and in a timely manner.

The Key Toilet

Ever wonder to yourself how to install a toilet properly?

In most cases installing a toilet isn’t easy. Take this picture above, the toilet flange/collar and bolts were broken once the older toilet was lifted from the ground. Now most the time this would be a super easy fix but honestly it never seems to be easy at all once you dig in and start repairing. Client call us up all the time in the middle off the project and say “we installed our toilet but now there’s leaking below what should we do”. Or something like “why does the toilet tank leak onto the ground”.

Now, just take a minute and step back from this situation and think. Ask yourself is this worth my time and energy to fix this myself? Most off the time homeowners that are DIY’ers (Do it yourself) try to repair and end up making the issue worse off then if they just would have called in the professional from the start. Meaning, the project now will end up costing more.

Drain + Clog + Flooded Basement

Almost every time our company goes out to unclog a sewer pipe this is what we find inside them.

Roots are the number one cause of clogged sewer lines. Sure offset lines and broken areas here and there don’t help but roots will always grow in. No matter if you have an old pipe going to the city sewer or a new PVC pipe roots always find their way to water.

Call Hiawatha Plumbing to clean your line yearly before a flooded basement happens. A sewer back is no joke and is not fun or easy to clean up depending how far it gets into your basement. Finished basement should even have more concern. Save money and clean before your calling for emergency service.

Wonder what happened in this planning?

When building a room for any plumbing fixtures make sure you plan it big enough.
