Fast and Effective Drain Cleaning Services in Edmonton
The truth is, even the best plumbing system will develop a blockage at some time or another. While many problems can be fixed by a plunger or snare from your local hardware store, others can be costly, time-consuming, and potentially risky to your system if you don’t have in-depth knowledge. In cases like these, it’s best to hire a professional and experienced plumber. After all, not all superheroes arrive on the scene wearing a cape. Some of us come with our cable auger and water jetter! When you need a drain cleaning expert in Edmonton, call Canessco Services Inc. We take care of messy problems so you don’t have to!
Common Causes for Clogged Drains
Clogs can be caused by a variety of things, but it’s usually a combination of events that lead to a major clog. For example, if a small toy gets flushed down the drain, this by itself is not a big concern. However, over time, hair can stick to the toy, soap residue can stick to the hair…and so on. Before you know it, you have an obstinate clog ready to pick a fight! Because clogs may be easy to ignore until they get so bad you can’t just DIY it, we recommend our customers schedule regular maintenance to avoid bigger, more expensive problems down the road.
Why Should You Hire Our Plumbers?
If you notice odd odours, slow draining, or complete blockage, it may be time to call a professional plumber. At Canessco Services Inc., our team of highly experienced and well-trained plumbers can help. We have portable equipment that enables us to clear sewer pipes 1” in diameter and up. Our plumbers are capable of servicing kitchen sink lines, manhole main lines, and more, including emergency services on most sewer back-ups.
For moderate problems like a clogged or slow drain, our Edmonton plumbing experts will begin with a cable auger. However, if it ends up to be a more serious clog, we can use cameras to scope out what’s going on. If necessary, we have portable water jetters capable of cleaning lines from 1” to 4” in diameter. These powerful tools emit 3 gallons of water per minute at 1800 pounds per square inch.
Sewer Clogs
No one wants to deal with sewer clogs, and the signs of an impending sewer clog may not be obvious. One symptom is your toilet making percolating noises after your washing machine completes its spin cycle. You may also find water pooling around the basement floor drain. Bottom line: if your drain makes gurgling noises, it may be asking for help!
Ways to Prevent Clogged Drains
Simple, everyday habits can help prevent drain problems down the road. Teach your family, roommates, or tenants smart habits like these:
- Never dump food and grease – such as coffee grounds and leftover frying oil – down the drain; throw these in the trash or, better yet, compost your food scraps!
- Use drain screens or grates in your sinks and showers to catch hair, soap, and debris
- Run cold water down the drain while using the garburator
- Run hot water down the drain after using the sink to prevent oil build-up
- Regularly clean your drains by flushing them with baking soda and hot water

Since sewer pipes are rather large, it usually takes something quite large to clog a main line—and, as much as you’d like to blame it on your Uncle Eddie, that’s actually quite unlikely. The most probable cause is a combination of tree roots and debris.
