What Drains Can You Clear?
The service professionals at Mr. Rooter of Tupelo and Oxford have years of experience unclogging every type of residential drain you may have in your home. We know what issues are more likely to affect certain drains, allowing us to provide timely repair services to get your drains flowing freely again in no time. All drains have the same function of carrying wastewater away from your home, whether they’re in your bathroom, basement, or kitchen. Our service professionals can clear any drain in your home, including:
- Bathroom Drains– Toothpaste, hair, and soap residue are some of the most common causes of bathroom drain clogs. Drain covers can be installed to help collect loose hairs before they fall into the drain. You can also run hot water while brushing your teeth to help prevent toothpaste from hardening in your pipes.
- Kitchen Drains– Oil, grease, and food are the leading causes of kitchen drain clogs. Oil and grease tend to harden inside your pipes. Garbage disposals help, but it's still essential to avoid putting certain foods down your drain, such as fibrous vegetables, meat, and bones.
- Floor Drains– Dust, dirt, and leaves can clog floor drains in laundry rooms, basements, and garages. Clogs in floor drains should be addressed immediately because they can cause floor damage.
Tips to Help Unclog Your Drain
If you suspect you have a clogged drain, there are a few things you can do to attempt to clear it before calling a licensed plumber. Some of the things you can try include the following:
- Let all the water in your sink, bathtub, or shower fully drain while preparing a pot of hot water. Pouring boiling water down the drain can help break up the clog, especially if it's caused by hardened fats and oils.
- If the method listed above doesn't work, you can also use a sink plunger and drain snake to remove a simple clog by plunging the material out of your pipe and then using the snake to pull it out.
- If your drain is still clogged, it’s time to call the service professionals at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Tupelo and Oxford. Clogs caused by a large amount of backed-up debris in your pipes or tree root intrusion require more extensive plumbing solutions.
