FAQs
What causes drains to become clogged?
Drains can become clogged due to a variety of reasons, including the buildup of hair, soap scum, grease, food particles, and foreign objects. In some cases, tree roots can invade sewer lines causing blockages. Regular maintenance and being mindful of what goes down the drain can help prevent clogs.
How can I prevent my drains from clogging?
To prevent clogs, avoid pouring grease or oil down the drain, use drain strainers to catch hair and food particles, and periodically flush your drains with hot water. Additionally, using a mixture of baking soda and vinegar followed by boiling water can help keep your drains clean and clear.
What should I do if my drain is clogged and I can't clear it myself?
If you've tried clearing your drain with methods like plunging or using a drain snake and the clog persists, it's best to contact a professional plumber. They have the tools and expertise to effectively diagnose and fix the problem without causing damage to your pipes.
How do professional plumbers clear clogged drains?
Professional plumbers use a variety of tools and techniques to clear clogged drains. This can include motorized drain snakes, hydro jetting (high-pressure water jets), and camera inspections to identify the source and location of the clog. These methods are highly effective and can address even the toughest blockages.
Are chemical drain cleaners safe to use?
While chemical drain cleaners can sometimes clear minor clogs, they can also cause damage to your pipes, especially older or plastic pipes. Additionally, they are harmful to the environment and can be dangerous if mishandled. It's generally better to use mechanical methods or enlist the help of a professional plumber for stubborn clogs.
How often should I have my drains professionally cleaned?
It's recommended to have your drains professionally cleaned once every 1-2 years as part of regular home maintenance. This can help prevent major clogs and ensure that your plumbing system is functioning efficiently. However, homes with heavy usage or past issues with clogs might benefit from more frequent cleanings.
