What to Expect From Our Professional Drain Cleaning
When a drain slows down or backs up, it’s rarely “just a little clog.” In many West Allis homes, buildup from grease, soap scum, food waste, or tree roots can narrow the pipe over time—leading to recurring problems if the drain isn’t cleared the right way. Rozga Plumbing Corporation focuses on removing the blockage thoroughly while protecting your plumbing system.
Here’s how we make drain cleaning easier (and less stressful) for customers in West Allis, WI 53214:
Fast diagnosis: We identify where the blockage is and what’s likely causing it, so you’re not paying for guesswork.
Safe, effective clearing: We use professional tools designed to restore flow without relying on harsh chemicals that can damage pipes.
Cleaner work area: We take precautions to keep your home tidy during service and clean up when we’re done.
Prevention tips: Before we leave, we’ll share practical steps (specific to your drain) to reduce the chances of another clog.
If you’re dealing with repeated clogs, gurgling drains, or water backing up in sinks, tubs, or floor drains, scheduling professional drain cleaning can help prevent bigger issues—like pipe damage or sewage backups—before they start.
Commonly Asked Questions
What are the most common causes of recurring drain clogs in older homes?
Recurring clogs often come from buildup that slowly narrows the pipe rather than a single blockage. Common causes include grease and food residue in kitchen lines, soap scum and hair in bathroom drains, “flushable” wipes and hygiene products in toilets, and mineral scale from hard water that roughens pipe walls so debris catches more easily.
Are chemical drain cleaners safe to use, and when should they be avoided?
Chemical drain cleaners can damage certain pipes (especially older metal piping), harm seals, and generate heat that may worsen weak joints. They’re best avoided if a drain is fully blocked (chemicals can sit and corrode), if you have frequent clogs, or if a septic system is used. If you do use one, follow label directions exactly and never mix products.
What are early warning signs that a main sewer line may be developing a blockage?
Clogs limited to one fixture usually indicate a localized issue, but multiple drains backing up at once can point to a main line problem. Other signs include gurgling sounds from nearby drains, water backing up in a tub or shower when the toilet flushes, frequent basement floor drain seepage, and sewage odors that come and go.
How can tree roots affect drain and sewer pipes, and what symptoms do they cause?
Tree roots seek moisture and can enter through tiny cracks or joints in underground sewer laterals, then expand and trap debris. Symptoms often include repeated slow drains, periodic backups (especially after heavy rain), and clogs that return soon after being cleared with a plunger or small hand snake.
What should I do immediately if a drain backs up to prevent water damage?
Stop using water at nearby fixtures, shut off the water supply to the affected area if needed, and contain overflow with towels or a wet/dry vacuum. Avoid running a dishwasher or washing machine until the cause is addressed. If sewage is involved, keep people and pets away, ventilate the area, and avoid contact without protective gloves and footwear.
What are simple habits that help prevent clogs in kitchen and bathroom drains?
In the kitchen, cool grease in a container and throw it away instead of pouring it down the sink, use a sink strainer, and run plenty of water while using the disposal. In bathrooms, use a hair catcher, avoid rinsing heavy lotions or oils down the drain, and periodically flush drains with hot water (where safe for your plumbing) to help reduce soap and residue buildup.
Do You Need a Professional Drain Cleaning?
When was the last time you had your drains cleaned? Five years? Ten years? More? Have you had to remove one or more clogs from your drains within the last few years? Odds are there’s still a clog building up somewhere in your drain lines that you need to have removed.
We strongly recommend having our team visit your home to perform a drain camera inspection and cleaning to remove any signs of a clog and your drains running smoothly.
Signs your drains need to be cleaned:
Slow drainage or drain stoppages - Over time, your pipes can slowly create a blockage due to substances clogging the drains, such as hair, grease, and other objects. Slow-moving drains can become a more significant issue if you don't get your drainage pipes cleaned.
Strange gurgling noises - Gurgling noises coming from your pipes when running water or flushing the toilets is a sign there's a problem building up and needs professional drain cleaning.
Foul odor coming from the drain - If you notice a foul odor coming from your plumbing fixtures inside your home, you should call a professional plumber. Even if your pipes are functioning correctly, this can be a sign of waste sitting in your drains and should be dealt with immediately.
Presence of fruit flies - Fruit flies are attracted to food that's stuck in your drainage pipes. A professional plumber can get to the root of the problem and remove any traces of built of food from your drains.
If you notice any of the above, don't hesitate to contact our plumbers for fast and reliable drain cleaning in Milwaukee, WI . These signs could also indicate an issue with your sewer or water lines, and our experienced technicians will work to identify the exact cause of the problem and resolve.
Drain cleaning is a service designed to not only remove clogs from your drains, but to actually clean the walls of your pipes to prevent new clogs from forming.
Clogs form because some form of debris or scum has accumulated on the walls of your pipes, slowly and progressively catching more debris to continue building into an even bigger clog.
Eventually the clog becomes so large that water and other debris going down the drain can’t flow through at normal speeds, leading to a slow or completely stopped drain.
