Floor Drain Installation and Replacement

Frequently Asked Questions

To prevent clogs in your floor drain, regularly remove debris from the drain cover, avoid pouring grease or other substances down the drain that can solidify or accumulate, and use strainers to catch hair and other materials. Additionally, consider scheduling periodic professional drain cleaning as a preventative measure to remove any buildup that could lead to blockages. Done offers comprehensive drain maintenance services, including advice and solutions tailored to keep your floor drains clear and fully operational.

Yes, Done can help if your floor drain is backing up. A backup can indicate a clog in the drain itself, the connecting pipes, or even deeper within your home’s sewer line. Our technicians can diagnose the cause of the backup using tools like drain cameras and perform the necessary cleaning or repairs to restore proper drainage. Addressing backups promptly can prevent overflows and water damage, ensuring your drainage system functions as intended.

Floor drains require regular maintenance to ensure they remain clear and functional. This includes: removing debris and buildup from the drain cover, periodically cleaning the trap to prevent clogs, and flushing the drain with water to prevent odors. For drains that are used infrequently, pouring water into the trap regularly is important to maintain the water seal that prevents sewer gases from entering your home. Join the 1st Service Club and let Done provide professional cleaning and maintenance services to keep your floor drains in optimal condition and help prevent future blockages.

Floor drains are typically connected to your home’s sewer system through a series of pipes that allow water to flow away from your home. In some cases, they may be connected to a sump pit or a municipal storm sewer, depending on local plumbing codes and the specific design of your home’s drainage system. The connection is designed to ensure that water is efficiently removed while preventing sewer gases from entering your home, thanks to traps and vents integrated into the drainage system.

The primary purpose of a floor drain in your basement, garage, or any utility area is to efficiently remove water and prevent flooding. These drains are especially crucial in spaces susceptible to water accumulation from indoor sources (like washing machines) or outdoor elements (such as rain or melting snow). By channeling water away from your home, floor drains help protect your property from water damage, reduce the risk of mold and mildew growth, and maintain a safer, drier environment.

Keep Your Drains Flowing with Floor Drain Clearing & Replacement

Are you noticing unpleasant odors or slow drainage from your floor drains? Don’t ignore these warning signs. Neglected floor drains can lead to clogs, backups, and even flooding in your Denver or Aurora home. Done® Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, & Electric specializes in floor drain cleaning and maintenance, ensuring your drains function properly and your home stays dry.

The Importance of Floor Drains

Floor drains play a crucial role in protecting your home from water damage. They are typically installed in basements, garages, laundry rooms, and patios to collect and drain excess water, preventing flooding and mold growth. However, these drains can easily become clogged with debris, hair, soap scum, and other materials, leading to a host of problems.

Common Floor Drain Issues

  • Clogs and Blockages: Accumulated debris can obstruct the flow of water, causing slow drainage or complete backups.
  • Foul Odors: Trapped organic matter in the drain can decompose, releasing unpleasant sewer gases into your home.
  • Pest Infestations: Clogged drains can attract pests like flies and drain flies, creating a nuisance and potential health hazard.
  • Water Damage: If a floor drain fails to function properly during a flood or plumbing leak, it can lead to extensive water damage to your property.

Preventative Maintenance Tips for Floor Drains

You can take several steps to keep your floor drains clean and prevent clogs:
  • Regular Cleaning: Clean your floor drains regularly by removing debris and flushing them with hot water and a mild detergent.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Harsh drain cleaners can damage your pipes and are harmful to the environment.
  • Use Drain Covers: Install drain covers to prevent hair, debris, and other objects from entering the drain.
  • Schedule Professional Maintenance: Regular professional maintenance can help identify and address potential problems before they become major issues.
