Why Drain Cleaning Matters in Riverside
Drains handle everything from food scraps to hair, but over time, grease, soap scum, and mineral buildup from hard water can create stubborn blockages.
In Riverside, many homes built in the 1950s and 60s have older pipes prone to clogs, while tree roots and clay soil shifts can invade sewer lines. Left unchecked, clogs can cause:
Water Damage: Backups flood floors, walls, or basements, costing thousands to repair.
Health Risks: Stagnant water breeds bacteria and mold, threatening indoor air quality.
Higher Bills: Slow drains waste water, spiking your utility costs.
Sewer Issues: Main line clogs can lead to raw sewage backups, a major health hazard.
Regular drain maintenance prevents these problems, saving you money and stress. Learn more about clog risks in our blog, The Top Causes of Clogged Drains in Riverside Homes.

Common Causes of Clogs in Riverside
Understanding what clogs your drains can help you prevent them:
Grease and Oil: Cooking grease solidifies in pipes, trapping debris.
Hair and Soap Scum: Common in bathroom drains, these form sticky blockages.
Food Scraps: Rice, pasta, and coffee grounds cling to pipes, especially without a garbage disposal.
Tree Roots: Riverside’s mature trees invade sewer lines, causing major backups.
Hard Water Buildup: Mineral deposits from Riverside’s water supply narrow pipes over time.
Avoid chemical drain cleaners—they can damage pipes and harm the environment. Instead, trust our drain cleaning experts for safe solutions.
