What Causes Clogged Drains?
Knowing the common causes of clogged drains can help you prevent future plumbing problems:
- Grease and oil. Cooking fats, oils, and grease can harden inside pipes, creating stubborn clogs. Collect grease in containers and dispose of it in the trash rather than pouring it down drains.
- Soap residue. Bar soaps and some detergents can combine with minerals in water, forming soap scum that gradually coats pipes and slows drainage.
- Hair. This is a leading cause of bathroom drain blockages. Using drain guards can help capture hair before it accumulates.
- Food waste. Large scraps or fibrous/starchy foods can clog sinks, even with garbage disposals. Scrape food into the trash to reduce buildup.
- Mineral build-up. Hard water can leave mineral deposits that restrict water flow over time. Installing a water softener may help reduce this accumulation.
- Sewer line issues. When multiple drains in your home are slow or backed up, it may signal a main sewer line problem that requires professional attention.
Signs You Might Need to Call Us
Drains can slow or clog before the problem becomes severe.

- Foul odors from drains
- Water pooling or leaks around drains
- Signs of corrosion or pipe damage
Timely, professional service helps keep minor issues from becoming costly repairs. Call us to schedule an inspection and receive a clear assessment from our licensed technicians.
DIY Drain Cleaning: What Works & What Doesn’t
Some homeowners attempt DIY drain cleaning using chemicals, plungers, or vinegar-and-baking soda rinses. While these may temporarily address minor debris, they rarely fix deep clogs or sewer line problems. Chemical cleaners can even damage pipes.
