Is Your Drain Clogged?

A clogged drain is sometimes obvious, as is usually the case if something is flushed that shouldn’t be or if a kitchen drain suddenly overflows. Other times, however, you may not realize you have a clog until you’re starting to notice the following signs:

• Slow draining
• Unpleasant and lingering drain odors
• Water that comes back up drains – or into other drains
• Gurgling and similar sounds

What Causes Clogging?

Clogs sometimes develop slowly due to exposure to grease and other substances that go down drains in a liquid state before changing to a more solid or gel-like state when they cool. Clogs can also be caused by overuse of certain drains, lack of regular maintenance, and flushing things down the drain best not flushed. With underground drains, tree roots can be an issue. No matter the cause, be sure to schedule regular drain cleaning services with our crew.

How Do We Clean Your Drains?

If a clog is fairly minor, we often use drain snaking. In this instance, a drain auger or snake is inserted into the drain as a cork-screw-like attachment. Snaking is often most effective with minor clogs that are closer to the front of drain lines.

Our hydro jetting service is better for stubborn pipe blockages. In this case, highly pressurized water is used to break up tree roots, deep-down debris, pipe scale, and similar materials that can affect drains.

How Can You Keep Your Drains Working?

Putting a grease can under your sink is one way to achieve this goal. We also recommend having your drains professionally cleaned at least once a year. Some homeowners prefer to do this prior to the holiday season at the end of the year to avoid unpleasant surprises when they have company. It’s also best not to flush wipes and similar items not meant to be flushed. With disposals, avoid putting larger food items down the drain. It can also be helpful to put wastebaskets near frequently used drains to discourage putting things down the drain for the sake of convenience.
