Common Signs of a Clogged Drain
When water stops going down your drains and starts to build up in your sinks or bathtub, you might assume the clog is near the top of the drain opening. However, some clogged drains can indicate a much more severe problem within your home's plumbing system. The service professionals at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of North Central Indiana are familiar with all signs of residential clogged drains and can visit your home to diagnose the issue quickly. Some of the most common signs of a clogged drain include:
- Toilets are bubbling, gurgling, or backed up
- Sinks are draining slowly
- There are soggy areas on your lawn
- You notice foul odors coming from the drains
- You find pools of water around your sinks, showers, bathtubs, or laundry appliances
- Sewage is backing up through your drains
Frequently Asked Questions About Drain Cleaning
How Do I Know if I Need to Clean My Drain?
If your drains are slowly draining water, aren’t draining water at all, have foul odors, or you can see drain flies, they require professional drain cleaning services. If multiple drains throughout your home are draining slowly, the issue could be within your main sewer line. Contact our local service professionals when you suspect an issue with your sewer line.
When Should I Call a Professional to Clear My Drain?
While it’s true that some minor clogs can be cleared with home remedies, it’s usually best to call a service professional before the issue becomes worse and causes further damage to your residential plumbing system. Some clogged drains can be cleared using simple methods, including:
- Let the water drain all the way if it's not completely clogged, and pour boiling water down the drain.
- You can also use a plunger and drain snake to pull the debris to the top and then use the drain snake to pull out the materials.
Can I Clean My Drains With Chemical Cleaners?
We strongly urge homeowners to avoid pouring store-bought chemical drain cleaners down their drain pipes. The chemicals in these cleaners are not only hazardous to your health and the environment, but they’re also not the most effective at clearing clogs and can cause further damage to your residential plumbing system. If they’re designed to cut through hair and grease, they’re strong enough to corrode your pipes.
How Often Should You Schedule Drain Cleaning Services?
Scheduling drain cleaning services every one to three years is a great way to keep your home’s plumbing system in top condition. Many homeowners don’t have their drains cleaned until they’re clogged, but this can prevent your plumbing system from operating efficiently and reliably. If your home has an older plumbing system, scheduling professional drain cleaning services more frequently may be necessary to prevent clogs.
Why Is Professional Drain Cleaning Necessary?
Having a team of experienced professionals tackle your drain cleaning needs is the best way to prevent future problems and save money in the long run. With professional drain cleaning services, you don’t have to worry about stubborn clogs or using harsh chemicals to clear them. Some of the benefits of hiring the service professionals at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of North Central Indiana to clean your drains effectively include:
- Eliminates foul odors in your drains
- Reduces the chance of future clogs
- Prevents water damage to flooring and walls

- Speeds up drainage
How Can Drain Clogs Be Prevented?
If you want to prevent your drains from getting clogged in the first place, you should avoid putting items down the drain that don't belong. You can also put a drain cover over your shower or bathtub drain to keep hair from going down the pipe. Scheduling routine drain cleaning services is the best way to prevent clogs in your residential drains.
Why Is it Important to Keep Your Drains Clean?
When your drains are in good shape, the rest of your home’s plumbing system is better protected against clogs, pipe bursts, and other costly damage. When things go down drains that can obstruct the pipes, they become vulnerable to many problems. Professional drain cleaning services keep your drains clear and free of unwanted debris, allowing your residential plumbing system to run smoothly and efficiently for the long haul.
