What Are the Signs of a Clogged Drain?
If your drain is blocked, you might notice some clear signs. It's essential to contact us right away if you observe any of these issues so we can resolve them. Here's what to keep an eye out for:
- Your sink is draining more slowly than usual.
- You spot water pooling around your shower or sink drain.
- When you use your sink, your toilet water bubbles.
- Your drains gurgle after running your washing machine or dishwasher.
- You notice a kitchen sink odor or a foul smell coming from your drains.
How Can I Perform Drain Cleaning?
Clogged drains are common, but they can often be fixed using simple techniques. A drain snake can be quite helpful if you're dealing with a stubborn clog, especially in your shower drain, due to hair, soap residue, or other bathroom items. However, if the problem persists, you can try these methods or get in touch with us for professional assistance:
- Fill your sink with water but be cautious not to let it overflow.
- If you have a two-section kitchen sink, cover one section with a wet cloth to create pressure.
- For a blocked bathroom sink, cover the overflow opening.
- Use a plunger on the open drain.
- Push the plunger up and down a few times, remove it, and repeat the process several more times.
