The drainage system in a home is essential for removing waste products that would otherwise remain in our sinks, baths, and toilets. These pipes experience a thorough challenge from a variety of different types of debris. These can include food and drink from the kitchen, tissue paper, and flushable wet toilet tissue in the bathroom, alongside the obvious organic human waste.

Professional drain cleaning services come in a variety of forms.
Before attempting any drainage, it is possible to use a video camera to inspect within the pipe. Video inspection involves using a camera connected to the end of a piece of fiber optic cable, with LED’s to illuminate the inside of the pipe. From here, the service technician can pinpoint the exact location of the blockage and determine the right course of action. Finding the precise location of the blockage helps to reduce wasted time removing piping around the home and is also less invasive.
The first method uses something called a Drain Snake, also known as a drain auger. At Bobby Blue Plumbing, a professional grade motorized drain snake would be used to clear debris from pipes. This piece of machinery is similar in shape to a corkscrew, which helps to either cut through or dislodge fragments of debris. These can then flow away with running water or be pulled up and out if the drain pipe isn’t large enough.
The second method is hydro-jetting.
