What Causes Drain Clogs?

Whenever you begin experiencing overflows in your sink, shower, tub, or toilet, it’s time to get a professional drain service. Even slow running drains need to be addressed, as clogs will not get better on their own!

There are several common culprits of drain clogs, including: 

• Excess hair
• Waste
• Accumulated soap scum 
• Food scraps
• Foreign objects
• Invasive tree roots
• Excess toilet paper/paper products
• Lack of proper drain maintenance

No matter what’s blocking your drainpipes, you can depend on our professionals to get it removed safely and effectively. Unlike store-bought chemical drain cleaners, our solutions won’t damage your pipes nor leave you dealing with the same issue in a matter of weeks. We will thoroughly resolve the problems and leave your pipes in great condition. 

How to Use Drain Cleaner

1. Leave the cap on.
2. Dispose of the bottle safely.

In all seriousness, you should try to avoid using drain cleaners.

These products can be extremely hazardous to your health, the environment, and your home's plumbing. Aside from skin burns and eye irritation, breathing in the deadly gases created by mixing different drain cleaners with other cleaning products can cause shortness of breath or even death. This can happen by accident, and it only takes one mistake. Chemical drain cleaners are not a long-term fix either - they can corrode pipes and lead to further damage and costly repairs. Furthermore, these chemicals don't just vanish after you pour them down the sink. They can end up seeping into our water systems and polluting our environment with dangerous toxins.

Our plumbers manually extract clogs to be gentle on pipes, completely clear the blockage, and provide an environmentally safe solution.

Signs Your Drains Require Professional Attention 

While some drainage issues can be resolved with a plunger, it’s extremely important to know when to call for professional help. The longer a drain clog is left unaddressed, the more prone you will be to suffer health complications due to growth of bacteria within your pipes. Serious blockages can even lead to a pipe bursting, which could result in hundreds of dollars in damage. 

Common signs that your drains need to be evaluated by an experienced plumber include: 

• Slow drainage
• Gurgling in toilets and drains 
• Multiple clogged fixtures 
• Foul odors coming from drains 
• Low water pressure 
• Increased water bill 

How to Prevent Drain Problems

Although drain issues are a frequent occurrence for homeowners, they don’t have to be. By taking some simple precautionary measures, you can keep your drains working smoothly and efficiently year after year. 

The most important steps you can take to prevent drain problems include: 

• Use drain strainers, especially in your kitchen sink, and always prevent certain food items from falling into your drains, such as rice, fruit peels, potato skins, onions, grease, and oil
• Periodically clean your pipes with vinegar and baking soda, letting the chemicals dissolve the grime in your pipes for about 15 minutes before flushing them with boiling water
• Schedule an appointment for preventative drain cleaning, which will keep your pipes from accumulating debris that could eventually cause a clog
