Importance of Drain Cleaning Services

1. www.merseyrod.co.uk Importance of Drain Cleaning Services There are many things in life that we simply do not think about until they go wrong. Few of us give much detailed thought to the circulation of our blood unless our doctor warns us that our arteries are becoming clogged, and few of us consider the state of our drains until they get blocked. But even though you do not really give your arteries all that much thought, you probably do things to help prevent them becoming clogged. You might not have given up on all saturated fats, but you probably do not have chips with every meal even though you would like to, and you probably

2. www.merseyrod.co.uk make sure you eat some fresh fruits and vegetables because you know that they are good for your heart. In short, you take some simple, sensible precautions to avoid the problems a clogged-up artery might cause you. You probably are not taking similar precautions with your drains. We all know that putting fat down the sink is a bad idea – we have all seen the pictures on the news of the monster “fatbergs” that have to be extracted from the sewers of our great cities – but we still do it, at least sometimes. We all know that flushing baby wipes down the loo is a bad idea, but sometimes you just need to take the easy option. We are, after all, only human. And so, sometimes things go wrong. When they do you need to call out a specialist drain cleaning service. Mersey Rod is the first place to call if you need a drainage engineer in Liverpool, or the wider Merseyside area. Whether you have drain problems in Liverpool or need drain repairs in Wirral our team of highly skilled engineers is ready to help you twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. Our team has many tools in its bag of drain care techniques. Simple blockages of the fatberg or debris build up variety are most usually resolved by the traditional, tried and tested drain clearance methods that have been used for as long as people have been using drains to carry away our waste.

3. www.merseyrod.co.uk We are pleased to be able to say that we resolved many drain problems in Liverpool with our trusty drain rods, a healthy application of elbow-grease and some high- pressure water jets. At Mersey Rod we like to use these methods because they are simple, effective, quick and generally give our customers good results in a cost effective and efficient way that causes the least possible disruption. Sometimes though, there will be some circumstances when a blockage is just too tough for traditional methods like these. Sometimes no amount of power behind the rods is going to do the slightest bit of good. In fact the truth is that you have to do these things with a high degree of sensitivity – excessive force could cause damage to the wall of the drain, so you need a drainage engineer in Liverpool who knows when to stop and take a different approach. As the masters of drain repairs in Wirral, Liverpool and elsewhere we are never worried by stubborn blockages and large accumulations of debris, and you should not be either, because when tradition fails we are able to turn to technology. When rods and water jets cannot get the job done we have other ways of sorting out drain problems. In Liverpool we can bring in our powerful vacuum tanker to take care of things. This is game changing technology that has been specifically and meticulously engineered to clear manholes and drainage systems of the most stubborn blockages

If you hire a good drainage engineer in Liverpool you should not need to call them often. Of course, sometimes issues with blocked drains do come back. When they do it is usually an indication that there is a more serious problem at work than just a regular accumulation of fatbergs and wet wipes. Such things call for a more detailed investigation but it can still be difficult to work out exactly what the causes of such persistent problems are. One of the key features of a drainage system is that it is almost entirely under the ground, which means that there is no easy way to just “have a look” to see what the problem is – or even where it is. And that can be a real problem. In the past the only option was to dig down into the system to see what is going on, but this is time consuming, expensive, difficult to do – especially if the drain runs under buildings or other people’s property – and it is hugely wasteful of effort. Because you have no way of knowing where exactly in the system the problem is that you could end up excavating huge lengths of pipework that are perfectly fine, adding frustration to the expense and inconvenience. Even worse, digging down to the drainage system risks the possibility that you might accidentally cause additional damage to the system.
