Clogged Drain Prevention
When it comes to your drains, a bit of prevention goes a long way. If you can take some preventative actions before you end up with a clogged drain, you can potentially avoid serious issues that will hinder your plumbing service in the future.
For example, buying some screens and placing them over your drain holes is an excellent way to stop debris from getting into them. These covers, which are made from wire or mesh, are inexpensive but do an excellent job of preventing food and hair from penetrating your drains. Just make sure you clean the screens out frequently because as they fill up, the objects they catch can restrict your water flow.
You should also be very careful about what you put in your sinks. Homeowners will often wash greasy or oily dishes in the sink and even dump excess grease into their drains. This practice can wreak havoc on your plumbing system, though, because grease and oil turn solid as they cool down. If you commonly pour grease into your drains, you’ll eventually end up with a clog that requires professional intervention.
Hiring a plumber from Hunt’s Services to clean your drains every few months is another excellent way to keep them functional. Even if you haven’t noticed a slow down in their performance, there could be some debris building up that you should clear out periodically. That way, you can eliminate obstructions before they have the chance to clog your drain.

The process often starts with a sewer camera inspection, which allows us to see inside your drains with a tiny video camera. This tool provides a direct view of the obstruction, helping us come up with a plan.
If the issue calls for it, the next step could involve hydro jetting, where we send a pressurized stream of water into your drains to dislodge the obstruction. Hydro jetting is excellent because it’s quick and easy and does a fine job of removing caked-on grease from inside your drain.
We also have cutting tools at our disposal, which our technicians use to chop large objects that are blocking your drains into small particles. Once these obstructions are smaller, it’s easier to send them down your sewer pipes to the city main sewer line with is maintained by the City of Issaquah Public Works.
