FAQs about Drain & Sewer Services in CA
What are common signs that I need drain repair?
Common signs that you may need drain repair include slow draining sinks or tubs, frequent sewer backups, gurgling noises in your plumbing, and unpleasant odors emanating from drains. If you notice water pooling around your plumbing fixtures or if the ground around outdoor drains is soggy, it's also a strong indicator that there's an issue. Ignoring these symptoms can lead to more serious damage, so it's advisable to contact a professional plumber if you experience any of these problems.
How long does a typical drain repair take?
The duration of a drain repair can vary significantly depending on the complexity and extent of the issue. Simple repairs may take as little as an hour, while more extensive work, such as replacing a section of pipe or clearing a significant blockage, can take several hours. After our assessment, we will provide you with an estimated time frame and keep you informed throughout the process to ensure you understand what to expect.
What should I do if my drains are backing up?
If your drains are backing up, the first step is to stop using any plumbing fixtures in the affected area to prevent overflow and potential damage. You should then contact Plumbing And Repair Pros immediately. It's important to avoid using chemical drain cleaners as they can damage your pipes and create more complications. Our team will quickly assess the problem and recommend the best course of action.

How can I prevent future drain issues?
To prevent future drain issues, consider regular maintenance such as professional drain cleaning and inspections. Avoid disposing of grease, large food particles, or non-biodegradable items down the drain. Using drain screens can help catch debris before it enters your plumbing. Additionally, be mindful of what you flush down toilets; nothing other than human waste and toilet paper should be disposed of this way.
