What Causes A Clogged Drain?

Clogged drains are a common household inconvenience that can quickly turn into a nightmare if not taken care of promptly. The blockage can occur from a variety of causes, which can range from simple and easy to fix to complicated and requiring professional help. In most cases, the culprits include hair, soap scum, grease, food particles, foreign objects, and tree roots. 

While some of these are unavoidable, such as the roots, others are entirely preventable by avoiding washing certain items down the drain. Detecting a clogged drain early on is crucial for avoiding costly repairs and damages, and unblocking it can be done by utilizing some straightforward techniques. Ultimately, being aware of the causes of clogged drains is the first step in preventing them from happening.

How Can You Prevent Clogs?

Dealing with a clogged drain can be a dreaded household chore that nobody wants to tackle. The good news is that there are preventative measures you can take to keep your pipes running smoothly. One simple step is to avoid pouring grease or oil down your drains, as they can harden and stick to the inside of the pipes. Additionally, using drain guards to catch hair and other debris can prevent buildup. Regularly flushing hot water down your drains can also help dissolve any buildup and keep your pipes clean. Another option is to use a mixture of baking soda, vinegar, and hot water to naturally clean your drains. By taking these simple yet effective steps, you can prevent clogs in your drain and avoid the hassle of dealing with an unpleasant plumbing issue.

You can also consider scheduling routine maintenance checks with one of our plumbers to inspect your pipes and keep them functioning correctly.

When do you call a drain clearing professional?

If you’re experiencing a clogged drain in your home, your first instinct is likely to try clearing it using a chemical drain cleaner from your local hardware store. However, these chemicals can actually corrode your pipes, causing greater damage to your plumbing system over time. Moreover, mixing these chemicals can be dangerous, causing even more potent corrosion or poisonous fumes. If your drains are exceptionally slow, or if they simply aren’t draining at all, then it’s time to call in a drain clearing professional. We can do far more than any store-bought chemical solution; we utilize industry-standard drain unclogging tools to eradicate your clogs and get your water flowing again. We can diagnose the issue with a drain camera to determine the best solution for your clog. Save money on chemicals, rented equipment, and temporary solutions; fix your pipes the right way by calling McClain Bros.
