Most Manhattan homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years as preventive maintenance. Kitchen drains in households that cook frequently may need annual service. Homes with large trees near the sewer line should have the main line inspected and cleared annually to prevent root buildup from causing backups.
Yes. Tree roots are one of the most common causes of sewer line problems in Manhattan neighborhoods with mature trees. Roots enter through small cracks or joints in older sewer lines and grow inside the pipe, eventually causing recurring blockages, complete blockages, or pipe collapse. Annual hydro-jetting and a root treatment can control root growth and extend line life.
The most common causes of clogged drains in Manhattan homes are grease and food particles in kitchen drains, hair and soap scum in bathroom drains, tree root intrusion in main sewer lines, mineral scale buildup from hard water, and flushing non-flushable items that get stuck in the sewer line. Each type requires a different clearing approach.
Chemical drain cleaners are generally not recommended for Manhattan homes with older plumbing. The caustic chemicals can accelerate corrosion in metal pipes and degrade older PVC joints over time. They also rarely clear blockages completely and can make the problem worse by causing debris to compact. Professional drain cleaning by Magnet Plumbing is safer and more effective.
Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"Annual backflow testing done quickly and the paperwork was submitted to the city on our behalf. Totally hands-off for us. Super professional."
"Had a new tankless water heater installed and could not be happier. The plumbers were punctual, clean, and walked me through the warranty and maintenance before leaving. Highly recommend for any water heater project."
"Our older boiler was making banging noises and losing pressure. The technician diagnosed a failed expansion tank, replaced it, and the system has been silent ever since. Reasonable rate and quick turnaround."
