Miami, FL Plumbing Company Launches Emergency Summer Services

Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Miami has announced that they are offering emergency summer services. The company explained that this is because a hot summer can put a home at risk for costly plumbing damage. The company noted that they have seen many problems with residential plumbing during the hot summer months that are typically caused by plant and tree roots.

"Root problems can occur anywhere with vegetation; water vapor escapes from the joints and cracks in the pipes and roots are attracted to the water," says Trent Dawson, owner of Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Mid-Ohio.

Root issues can cause mass damage to pipes, according to the Miami, FL plumbing company. Leaky pipes actually attract roots, and once those roots slip through cracks or separations in pipes, they will grow and cause more extensive damage as they go. The company states that summer is typically the worst time for this issue as vegetation tend to grow more, and that they can often cause burst pipes in multiple areas under one home.

As roots grow, they cause bigger holes and can eventually clog the entire system. The Miami, FL plumber says that common signs that may indicate root problems include backup of sewage in toilets or bathtubs, as well as a gurgling sound when the toilet is flushed. No water in the toilet bowl can also signal distress with the sewage or pipe system.

The Miami, FL emergency plumber says that there are a number of solutions that can stop this issue before it causes catastrophic damage, and that finding and fixing it early is often key to avoiding very costly repairs and replacements.

Drain cleaning is often done to clear clogs and get water running through pipes properly again. Hydrojetting is another method that can provide a long term solution. This method involves pressurized water jets that clean lines of roots as well as other debris and buildup, clearing them out so that water runs freely and avoiding large clogs that can cause burst pipes.

The plumber says that noticing the problem and calling for help is critical and the earlier the better to help avoid additional damage. More about Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Miami and the emergency services they provide can be seen on their website.
