Causes of Clogged Drains

Kitchens

Almost anything can wind up in a kitchen drain, from food scraps, grease, and cooking oils to soap scum, paper towels, and more. As time goes by, these common household substances can build up and congeal. The result? An annoying clog that can leave you without the convenience of a working sink. This can happen even to sinks equipped with garbage disposals. While these devices make clean-up much easier, they’re not magic: there are still certain items that a garbage disposal cannot safely remove. Some examples of materials you should avoid putting down your drain (even if you have a garbage disposal) include:

• Cooking grease, oil, or fat
• Eggshells
• Coffee grounds
• Hard foods (i.e. fruit pits, nuts, & seeds)
• Pasta, oats, & rice
• Onion skins or potato peels

When in doubt, don’t risk a time-consuming plumbing problem – simply throw it away!

Bathrooms

Bathroom sinks, toilets, and showers can all become clogged due to a variety of materials. Hair is the most common culprit in bathroom plumbing: it has a tendency to wrap around itself and build up over time, ultimately creating an obstruction. Other substances such as facial tissues, cotton swabs, dental floss, and feminine hygiene products can also contribute to clogs in pipes.

To prevent bathroom clogs, start by ensuring that hair and other debris is properly disposed of (i.e. thrown away). Additionally, make sure that nothing but toilet paper is being flushed down the toilet and consider investing in a drain strainer or sink guard to catch any rogue materials before they enter the drain. These simple devices can be purchased relatively cheaply at your local hardware store.

Drain Cleaning FAQs

How much does professional drain cleaning cost?

The cost of professional Delaware County drain cleaning can vary depending on the severity and type of clog, as well as any additional work that may be needed. The best way to get an accurate quote is to contact Bill Frusco Plumbing, Heating, & Cooling for an inspection and consultation.

Can drain cleaning be done without a professional?

Unless you have experience dealing with drains, it is best to leave the job to a professional. Attempting DIY drain cleaning can result in damaging your pipes or even making the problem worse. In addition, many store-bought drain cleaning products contain harmful chemicals that can be damaging to your pipes and the environment.

What is a drain snake?

A drain snake, also known as an auger or plumbing snake, is a tool designed to dislodge clogs in pipes. It consists of a long wire with a corkscrew-like head that is inserted into the pipe and rotated until it catches the clog, which can then be pulled out of the pipe.

Is my drain clogged?

Signs of a clogged drain are usually easy to spot. They include:

• Slow drainage
• Standing water in sinks, tubs, or showers
• Gurgling sounds
• Unusual odors
• Damp patches on the floor near drain pipes
• Insect infestations around drain covers

What is hydro jetting?

Hydro jetting is a method of drain cleaning that uses a high-pressure water hose to blast away clogs and debris in the pipes. The pressurized water can reach into tight corners, flush out roots and other obstructions, and restore your plumbing system to optimal performance.

What should I do if my sewer line gets backed up?

If your sewer line gets backed up, it is important to shut off the water supply and contact a professional plumber as soon as possible. Sewer backups can cause health hazards, flooding, and expensive repairs if not handled promptly.
