We hope everyone had a happy new year and a Merry Christmas! Starting the new year, most people usually have a new goal. What if that “new goal” is to take care of your drains before there is an issue. Winter is here and that means storms are coming! Keeping your storm drains and sewer drains clear are essential during the weather. Fall has passed which means lots of leaves have fallen and could have possibly clogged your storm drains and gutters. Getting those drains clear before the storm hits will prevent them from backing up and causing a major issue. Craig Johnson Plumbing has a Hydro Jetter and a snake that could clear those lines for you!

If you’re interested in keeping these drains clear, give us a call! Remember – new year, new you and clear drains!

Everyone loves a good breakfast; however, your drains do not agree!

Yikes! This is How Your Grease Drain Looks Like If You Don’t Fix It | by Sarah Lavinski | DIY ...

A lot of people say, “it’s okay if you use hot water.” Don’t let them fool you. After a while the grease collects in your drains and gets into the sewer lines which doesn’t just create a kitchen clog, but it can create a clog throughout your home. If this does happen, the best thing to do is pay your local plumber to come out and clear the line. If it doesn’t get resolved damage can be caused in your sewer lines which can create a larger problem.

Our best advice to dispose grease is:

Let the grease dry and dispose into a container or throw away. If there is excess grease still on the pan, you can use a paper towel to scrape it off and throw away.

Wasn’t that last rainstorm crazy!

Now that it has past – this is the time to get your storm drains cleared before the next storm!

A storm drain is also known as a storm sewer which is a drainage system designed to drain excess rain or surface water from surfaces like roofs, sidewalks, parking lots and streets through undergrounds pipes into streams or rivers. Unlike sewer lines, storms drains drain the water without it being treated in a sewage treatment plant.

In most homes, homeowners use gutters to collect rainwater from their house and use gutter downspouts to drain out the water.

It is important to keep these drains clear and flowing especially before a storm because if they are full of debris there will be a clog and the water will not be able to drain throroughly which can cause a variety of other issues within the home.

Our Hydro Jetter has arrived!!

What is Hydro Jetting?

Hydro Jetting is a plumbing solution that is noninvasive and clears pipes by effectively removing blockages. Clogged drains can sometimes take a lot of work to clear and sometimes even require excavation but using this Jetter can help solves those complicated clogs with this solution.

We strongly recommend using this equipment before the winter to make sure your drains are clear and flowing. When it’s sweater weather.. it’s time for the Jetter!

Our Hydro Jetter can clear your drains and pipes of several things:

Grease
Roots
Scum
Mineral Deposits
Food Waste
Debris

There are many benefits to using the Hydro Jetter. While using a snake to unclog your drains works for most clogs, however, it doesn’t clear everything. The Hydro Jetter’s most importance is how effective it is. It completely clears your drains, and you can even use it on a Culvert.

Are you concerned about the environment? The only things necessary to use the Jetter is a power outlet and water which means it’s eco-friendly! You don’t need to put all the chemicals down your drain if you choose to get the Hydro Jetter service!
