Rooter Service Near Collinsville, IL

A rooter is a drain cleaning machine that completely clears drains that have been clogged from overgrown tree roots and other debris that is difficult to reach.

Simple but effective ways to prevent clogged drains include using a strainer in bathroom drains to catch hair, avoid putting cooking oils and fats down your kitchen sink, and always have your drains properly maintained by a Mars Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, Sewer & Septic plumbing specialist.

Rooter services typically entail snaking the drain as much as possible and using chemicals to clear any remaining debris, as well as speed up the decomposition of the dead roots. However, as these chemicals can often be harmful to the environment, many plumbing experts at Mars Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, Sewer & Septic utilize hydro-jetting methods to clear your drains. Hydro-jetting forces water through the pipes using varying amounts of pressure to clear any additional debris in the pipes. Next, your Mars Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, Sewer & Septic plumber will use a rooter machine to break up the roots in the plumbing and flush them out.

Roots are drawn towards the water, heat, and nutrients flowing through your sewer line pipes. Subsequently, materials like toilet tissue and other debris will get caught in the mass of tree roots and eventually the roots and debris will become intertwined in your sewer line pipes causing all the drains in your home to back up. Clay pipes are the most susceptible to root intrusion, followed by concrete pipes, and PVC pipes.

If your sewer line is blocked it is most likely due to an infiltration of tree roots and other debris in your pipes. The most appropriate way to handle a blocked sewer line is to call a certified plumber from Mars Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, Sewer & Septic immediately. Depending on how blocked your sewer line pipes are, a Mars Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, Sewer & Septic plumber may have to repair or even replace your sewer line.
