Determining Whether You Have a Clogged Drain

We understand some homeowners want to attempt to clear their clogged drain before making an appointment with a plumber. If you have a severe clog or multiple clogged drains in your home, it’s essential to schedule an appointment with an experienced service professional to determine the extent of the damage and provide effective repair solutions. If you want to try to clear the clog yourself, a few steps to try before you give us a call include the following:

• Carefully pour hot water down the drain to try to break up the hardened build-up lining the inside of the pipes.
• Try using a sink plunger and snake drain by centering the plunger over the top of the drain and using the snake to pull the blockage from your pipe.
• Scheduling routine inspections and drain cleaning services with Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Dubuque is one of the best ways to prevent future clogs in your drains.
