Drain Cleaning in Loures

About our service in Loures

In the flats around Sacavém and Moscavide the story is the one shared columns always tell. Fat from the kitchens sets on the inside of the pipe and narrows it, wipes and cotton pads arrive and do not break down, and one day the column will not take what it is given. The water then discharges through the lowest opening it can reach, which is a ground-floor bathroom or a floor gully, so the household that mops up is rarely the household responsible. It is worth knowing before the recriminations start. It also decides responsibility, because a trap or branch inside your flat is yours, the column belongs to the condomínio and the street belongs to the municipal network. We work out which and give you a written note of it. Out in the rural north the problems are physical rather than social. A quinta drains through a run that crosses land, sometimes for a considerable distance, with chambers that may have been buried under a lawn, a gravel drive or a new terrace at some point in the last forty years. Vegetation, grit washed off tracks and the sheer length of the run all conspire against it. Where a property is not connected to the sewer, a septic tank that has reached capacity produces exactly the symptoms of a blockage, with everything in the house slowing together and a smell around the tank. Emptying is the answer there, not rodding, and knowing which of the two you need is the whole point of looking before working. Before we arrive, whichever side of the concelho you are on: stop using the fixture, stop flushing to test it, and keep the caustic drain openers out of it. They do nothing against set fat or a wipe mat, they harm old joints, and on a septic system they destroy the bacteria the tank depends on to function. We sheet floors, clear with rods, a drum machine and a wet vacuum, and use a camera when a run keeps closing in the same place. Where that shows a collapsed or displaced length, we say so rather than pretending another clearance will hold.
