What’s the Best Way to Clear a Clogged Drain?
Not every drain obstruction requires a professional clogged drain service. Many homeowners have experienced a clogged drain and were able to clear them entirely on their own. If you cannot remove the clog, a professional may need to be called in to assist. We offer fast and reliable clogged drain services backed by our Neighborly Done Right Promise®. The next time you’re experiencing a clogged drain in your home, follow the steps below.
- Partially fill the sink with warm water. Use a wet cloth to block the overflow hole or plug the second drain of a double sink.
- Use a cup plunger to plunge the open drain.
- Work the plunger up and down a few times, then remove it. Repeat the process multiple times to work the obstruction down the drain.
