BLOCKED DRAIN
Many homeowners today prefer to fix minor clogs themselves. However, a clogged drain can become a challenge. If you think the clog is just simply a build-up of debris in the drain, you can probably use a plunger or some form of drain cleaner. This may not be the final solution to the problem. A clogged drain can come from many different sources, such as tree roots, ancient piping, debris, or something dropped into the drain or toilet itself. If something like this has occurred, you may need to consider VIP Plumbers in Pretoria for the job.
If you have a clogged drain and you continue to plunge the drain and use a drain cleaner with no relief, you may actually cause damage to your pipes. Without knowing what the source of the problem is, you will not be able to solve the problem.
If you notice a continued drainage problem call VIP plumbers who is well skilled to troubleshoot the problem and resolve it. For example, if you have tree roots growing into the outside sewer pipes, VIP plumbers have special equipment to insert into the pipe and break apart roots that are blocking the flow of refuge.
A clogged drain may also result when something is dropped into it. If you have a toilet that is clogged, it may be because something was flushed down and is now stuck in the drain. VIP plumbers will more than likely have to remove the toilet to retrieve the object and then replace the “donut” and the toilet.
If you are like most people who have no idea what a “donut” or "wax ring" is or how to replace it, you should call VIP plumbers rather than do the job yourself. Unplugging clogged drains is a typical day in the life of VIP plumbers

most home owners would try to de-clog the drain by poking wire hangers into the sink. Others would run to the nearest grocery store to get a liquid cleaner that promises to de-clog the drain in minutes. Only a few would be sensible enough to call emergency plumbers to have the problem checked?
Unfortunately, poking the drain with wire hangers and pouring a good amount of store-bought cleaners are not enough to solve the problem. The truth is, only a plumber can truly solve clogged drain problems. Wire hangers can only reach as far as they can. It might be able to get some dirt out of the drain but this is only temporary relief especially if the cause of the drain problem is located deep into the drain pipes.

Chemical drain cleaners may solve the problem but like poking wire hangers into the sink in an effort to unclog the drain, also serves as a temporary relief. It might solve the problem for a while but what home owners don’t know is that it could cause more problems to them, their furniture, and even the environment.
When home owners experience problems with their drain pipes, they should hire emergency plumbers to solve the problem for them. The cost of hiring a plumber might be more compared to getting a bottle of drain cleaners from the grocery store, but the drain cleaners do not give permanent relief and could cause more harm than good.
