Clogged Toilet Drain - Vista View Drive Covington Kentucky
« on: April 04, 2011, 01:39:06 AM »


A customer of Dunbar Plumbing from over 6 years ago referred us to a daughter of the mother we worked for in Taylor Mill for an emergency drain backup that occurred on Vista View Drive in Covington Kentucky. Vista View Drive is located in the Crystal Lake Subdivision off of Hand Pike, a road that indirectly connects SR17 Madison Pike/3L highway to SR16 Taylor Mill road. Crystal Lake Subdivision is a suburban housing area where the homes range from less than 2 years old up to almost 30 years old in some of the oldest parts of the subdivision.
 
The home we performed the drain cleaning at was an older home on Vista View Drive, nearing the 20 to 30 year old range. This is easily identified by the use of cast iron drain piping in the groundwork of this home. The customer had already removed the toilet from the floor when they callled, given this property was a reposession and was being fixed up/remodeled.
 
When water was poured into the closet flange serving this toilet, water would back up and gurgling would occur, signifying an obstruction in the line. We took our Spartan Drain Cleaning Machine, drum machine and cleared the obstruction without the retrieval of any roots. A small amount of fabric, possibly a fabric softener sheet was removed from the end of the cable.
 
We had the customer run extensive amounts of water through the drain system as soon as the obstruction was cleared, taking the drain cable out the full distance while moving inside the drain while water was running through the piping. Drain system was running very well once completed.
 
While there, we identified high water pressure that was made known to the property owners and also the condition of the aging water heater. We recommended replacement of the water heater while the home is vacant. We certainly appreciated this customer who referred us to a family member over 6 years later and we hope to repay the favor with a discount in the future. Customers were satisfied with our work and I'm sure the helpful advice will go a long ways.
