Clogged Drain Repair and Service in Spring

What plumbing issues can appear to the untrained eye. Here are some signs that you have a clogged drain:

• You notice water backing up out of the drain
• Pools of water sit around the drain, especially in sinks and showers
• These pools of water either drain slowly or do not drain at all
• The toilet bubbles or gurgles when the sink is on
• A rotting smell emanates from the drain
• One or more drains smell like sewage (a sign of a clogged sewer drain)

If any of these sound familiar, it’s likely that you have a clog somewhere in your pipe. Before you call a plumber, try plunging the drain yourself by filling your sink with water and plunging the hole with a cup plunger.

When to Call A Drain Clog Professional

It’s possible that plunging the drain yourself will not be enough to fix the issue. Many drains have years of hair, rust, and soap buildup and require a professional to totally clear the pipe. Even without telltale signs of an emergency, your pipe system likely contains some sort of buildup. Without regular maintenance, this buildup can permanently damage your plumbing and create costly problems later. The best course of action is to call a professional regularly for routine pipe and drain maintenance. The experts at Mr. Rooter offer regular drain maintenance plans that are economical and provide peace of mind when it comes to your home’s drainage system. Having your home thoroughly and routinely inspected is the best way to be sure you never find yourself in an emergency.
