Owning an older home can be a dream come true for many, with its unique architectural features and nostalgic charm. However, it requires extra care and attention, particularly its drains.
Drain issues in old homes are usually due to outdated or deteriorated fixtures no longer working at their best. One of the most common issues you may encounter is clogs. Discount Drain Cleaning®, your expert in drain cleaning in Henderson, NV, discusses why this happens.
1. Debris Buildup
Years of use and neglect can accumulate gunk, sediment, and other debris in the pipes, causing clogs and impeding water flow. When left neglected for too long, they can cause water to back up into your home, leading to a nasty mess. You can prevent this problem in the first place by getting routine drain cleaning services. Using drain guards can also trap debris before it goes down the drain.
2. Aging and Outdated Pipes
Older homes usually use different pipe materials than those used in modern properties. This includes cast iron and galvanized steel. While these materials are durable, they are more susceptible to corrosion. The gradual rust, scale, and debris buildup can block your drains and strain the pipes further, leading to leaks or collapse. Drain snaking and descaling can restore flow in your pipes and extend their lifespan.
3. Tree Root Intrusion
Roots of nearby trees can infiltrate aging drain pipes through cracks or loose joints. As the roots grow, they create blockages, ultimately causing backups and pipe damage. Tree root intrusion needs professional attention, often requiring specialized techniques like hydro jetting to remove the roots and fix the affected pipes.

I had the cartridge in my shower go bad and couldn't shut off my water. I called Walter at 6:00 am. He told me to shut off the water main and waited for him to get to my house and he fixed it in a matter of minutes, about 10-15 to be exact. I highly recommend them for any plumbing issues one might have.

We received a call from one of our tenants at a commercial retail center that all their toilets and sinks were backing up. We manage the property from out of town and rarely have plumbing issues, but now needed a plumber in a hurry. The tenant runs a childcare center and small children need access to bathrooms! After calling several companies who were too busy, one of them recommended Walter at Discount Drain. Lucky for us! Walter answered his phone immediately. He was friendly and committed to helping us out. He arrived at the property at the promised time and resolved our issue, keeping our tenants happy. His invoice arrived overnight with great detail and the price was reasonable. We won't hesitate to call upon Walter again.

Outstanding service. Was on time, price quoted was price charged, drains open and working in 30 minutes !! No mess to clean up, and was explained everything. Forget the ripoff plumbers in this city, that sell with the fear factor, and work you don't need. This is the only company to call.
