Drain Installation Services

Short answer, No. Drain installation is a job for skilled professionals only, but we understand homeowners with a taste for DIY projects can find that to be a bit of a difficult pill to swallow. Are you wondering why we are so adamant in our assertion that this job needs to be left to qualified plumbers only? Then take the following into consideration.

• Ventilation. Did you know that you cannot just install a pipe and expect it to function properly as a drain if it does not vent properly? Think very carefully about whether or not you want to risk ventilation problems with pipes of this particular nature, and then contact us for professional drain installation services.
• Proper slope. If you are using a drain design that requires the sloping of horizontal drainpipes, it is important to ensure those pipes slope properly and at the right angles. You don’t want issues at connection points, for instance, to throw off the slope and make drainage less effective. Too much slope is no good, either, as liquid waste can move faster than solid waste.
• Correct Sizing. There are a lot of different drainpipe sizes, and you need to know that the ones that are used in your drainage system are the most appropriate for any given function. A novice in drain installation may not know what size of drain is best suited to a certain application, and this is definitely not an area that benefits from guesswork.
• Fittings. There are a lot of different types of pipe fittings, as well. Needless to say, fitting your pipes together properly is one of the most important steps of any plumbing installation, your drain installation included. Do not run the risk of leaky drain pipe connections causing damage to your property.
