Oklahoma City Commercial Sewer and Grease Trap Descaling

Descaling: A Vital Process for Clear and Efficient Plumbing

Descaling involves the removal of mineral deposits such as limescale, rust, and magnesium carbonates, as well as hardened grease that builds up within pipes, sewers, and grease traps. If left unchecked, these deposits can obstruct the flow of water and waste, leading to frequent clogs and reduced system performance. Descaling clears out these buildups by using specially designed scrubbing tools and advanced equipment, restoring the pipes to optimal working condition. 

What Does the Descaling Process Involve?

The descaling process starts with a detailed sewer or grease trap system inspection. Our technicians use cutting-edge video camera technology to evaluate the buildup and determine a practical removal method. This initial step gives us a complete picture of the condition of your system before moving forward with descaling.

After the inspection, we use specialized equipment to remove deposits inside the pipes. Whether dealing with mineral buildup or grease, our tools tackle even the most stubborn blockages, delivering a thorough cleaning.

Following the descaling, we conduct a final inspection to verify that the buildup has been cleared. The result is a plumbing system that operates efficiently, minimizing the risk of future clogs or slow drainage.

Does Your Commercial Plumbing Need Descaling?

Over time, pipes and grease traps can accumulate buildup, leading to various problems. Recognizing the signs your system may need descaling can help you address problems before they escalate. 

Your commercial property could benefit from descaling if you notice:

• Foul odors. Unpleasant smells from your drains or grease traps often indicate grease, food waste, or debris accumulated inside your pipes. This buildup causes foul odors and can signal a more severe clog forming in your plumbing system.
• Slow drains. If your sinks, toilets, or floor drains are slow to empty, this is often a warning that scale and debris have built up inside your pipes, reducing water flow. Sluggish drainage is not just an inconvenience—it can also lead to more severe clogs and plumbing emergencies if not addressed promptly.
• Frequent clogs. If you’re constantly dealing with clogged drains or backups, it could indicate that hardened grease, scale, or debris has obstructed your pipes.
• Strange noises. Hearing gurgling or other unusual sounds when using your drains or plumbing fixtures? These sounds could indicate air pockets caused by partial blockages in your pipes. These strange noises often signal that the water isn’t flowing smoothly, a telltale sign of scale buildup.
