bathtub and shower drain clog

A clogged shower or tub drain is the most annoying thing ever. It's important to have a professional plumber remove any accumulation of human hair, pet hair, or soap scum, even though some do-it-yourself drain cleaning techniques could temporarily relieve a clog.

Laundry room drains

Drains in the kitchen

You need to take extra precautions to prevent blockages if you have a utility sink in your laundry room, cellar, or garage. Because not everything should be flushed down the toilet, refrain from using utility basins as trash cans.

Maintenance of Floor Drains

Because of this, it's imperative to get your floor drains checked and cleaned on a regular basis. Any type of water in the home will be handled by our staff in Escondido in a dependable and effective manner.

Cleaning of Exterior Drains

Outdoor drains require the same upkeep and care as drains inside your house. The exterior drains of your property are essential for directing water runoff away from the building, so lowering the risk of flooding and other typical water damage. The buildup of soil, sand, sticks, rocks, and other kinds of natural debris can cause any outdoor drains to clog over time.

Upkeep of the main drain

The sewage line is the main drain in your house. Finding clogs of any length is challenging because its length can vary from 12 to 24 inches. No matter where the main drain for your house is, our plumbers can clear it of obstructions and clean it to prevent sewage backup.

gutters on roofs

Just like the other drains in your home, roof drains, whether they are situated on a flat roof or alongside your gutters, need to be routinely cleaned and maintained. Any blockage in your roof's drainage system could result in water overflow. This may cause water damage to the exterior of your home, such as roof leaks.

How you can tell if a drain is stopped

Even though the severity of a clog can vary, you should call a plumber as soon as you notice one. If you know the signs of a stopped drain right away, our team can get to work right away and help you avoid expensive repairs and dangerous situations.

Listen or watch for the toilet to erupt.

If your toilet makes gurgling or popping sounds before, after, or even while flushing, there is probably a blockage somewhere in your plumbing system. The bubbles you see are caused by a blockage somewhere in your system. You can use a plunger to get rid of the clog, but a plumber in Escondido will be able to come up with a better answer.

Water Backs Up

If there is a backup of water or garbage in the house, you should call a professional as soon as possible. Not only does this mean that there is a blockage somewhere in your plumbing system, but it could also make your home dangerous for you and your family to live in. From the bathtub to the kitchen sink, any drain in the house can get clogged and cause a backup.

Very slowly, the water drains away.

A common and clear sign of a clogged drain is that water drains more slowly than normal. The water in your home's drains should move pretty quickly. If things are taking a lot longer than normal, this is a clear sign that there is a clog in your system. It is very important not to ignore this sign and to get trained experts to help as soon as possible.

Bad Odor

When there is a clog, there is a good chance that there will also be a bad smell. No matter what caused the clog—a pile of soap scum, hair, toothpaste, or food scraps—the smell will come from the decomposition that happens when things break down. After a while, the bad smell will travel through your system and start coming out of the other drains.

a few small puddles of water

Even though puddles of water that don't make sense aren't always a sign of a stopped drain, it's important to have a trained plumber look at them as soon as possible. This cuts down on how much water is lost, which lowers your monthly water bill. It also makes it less likely that water will hurt your house or yard. Lastly, it lets our staff find and get rid of any blockages that may be in your system.

It's important to know why drains get clogged, not just so you can figure out what's going on with your pipes but also so you can stop clogs from happening.

The Buildup of Garbage

Most sinks get clogged when things get stuck in them. Soap, hair, and other things that don't belong can cause clogs. Soap, hair, cooking oil or grease, food scraps, and natural debris like twigs and leaves are some of the most common types of buildup in our customers' drains that we have to clean out.

When you have a serious clog in your system, you might not think about what happens to things you put down the drain. Make sure your drains have the right caps and traps to keep them from getting clogged. Our staff can help you!

Broken or broken pipes

When your pipes are broken, cracked, or even just cracked, they can get clogged and cause backups. This damage must be fixed as soon as possible by a skilled plumber in Escondido. Here are some of the most common ways that your pipes could get damaged and cause a clog:

As a pipe gets older, it starts to rust.
Seals and parts that leak
Shifting caused by changes in the dirt More stress on the pipes

As a full-service plumbing company, we can not only clear out the clog and waste left by broken pipes, but also fix anything else that needs to be fixed.

Nature

No matter where you live, nature will take its toll on your body if you are not careful. Our staff can help you plan for and deal with anything that could cause your system to fail, from weather to plant and tree root intrusions.

Storms

A storm can cause your lines to get clogged in a few different ways. How much water your body takes in is one of them. If your storm drains aren't clear or your sump pump isn't as reliable as you thought it was, your system will soon get stuck. Heavy rain can also wash natural and not-so-natural debris into your system, which can lead to big clogs.

Also, storms, heavy rain, and floods can move the dirt around your home, which can damage your system. When the pressure in your system goes up, things can break and let pounds of soil, rocks, and dirt in.

Roots

You should always think about where your water is when you put new trees or bushes. Roots that are looking for water will grow into your pipes over time, no matter how old they are. When the root gets bigger, it will slow down the lines and make the system less effective.

Things that you shouldn't flush

There are things you should and shouldn't flush down the toilet. It's important to know what these are so that your system is as stable and effective as possible. Some things you should never flush down the toilet are:

Q-tips and cotton swabs, baby wipes, or wet wipes.
The coffee beans
Menstrual products
Don't use your hands.Medications
Grease and oil Leftover cooking grease

In the end, you probably shouldn't flush anything that isn't waste or water. If you have any questions about what can and can't go down the toilet, you can ask our plumbers.

Broken Pipes

If your water line or sewer pipe is broken, you should fix it as soon as possible! We know how to find the broken lines in your system, get rid of any waste they may have made, and fix or reline them as needed.

Pipes Frozen

During the winter, it's important to keep an eye on your pipes and take the right steps to keep them from freezing. As the ice melts, these can not only stop things from moving as they should, but they can also cause too much water to flow through your system. This can cause a lot of damage to your pipes, leaks, or more clogs all over your system.

Vent Pipe Obstruction

Vents are an important part of any plumbing system, but they are often forgotten. The stack, which is another name for the vent pipe, can go from your basement to your roof. This lets sewer gases escape. Sometimes, your vent can get jammed, which can let sewer gases into your home and raise the pressure in your system. Our team in Escondido can safely clear out any clogs in your pipes.

Using liquid drain cleaner vs. hiring a plumber in Escondido

Your home's drains get clogged up all the time. Even though liquid drain cleaner in those plastic boxes, which you can find at any department store, may seem like it will do the trick, it can actually do more harm than good.

When you use chemicals to clean a drain, the toxic cleaning solution goes down the drain and into the pipes. It starts to heat up and pushes through the clog and the pipe lining. This helps your drain for a little while, but if you don't get rid of all the waste, the clog will come back. Not to mention that drain cleaner is very bad for the earth. It is better to hire a plumber to clear your drains than to use drain cleaner.

Hiring a skilled plumber makes sure that the right cleaning methods are used, which keeps your lines from getting damaged. With our modern tools and tried-and-true methods, we can clean drains that last much longer than those you can do yourself.

Questions About Drain Cleaning That Come Up Often

How clean and clear your drains are affects the comfort, health, and safety of your home. If you have questions about your drains or the services our team provides, take a look at some of these questions that come up often:

Does a drain that gets stuck always have to be cleaned?

Yes! If you want the clog to go away for good, you need to clean out the drain. If you just clear the clog and don't clean the drain, the water will flow again, but there will still be nasty gunk and other trash in the drain. By cleaning your sink, you make sure there is nothing stuck in it.

How often should I have my drains cleaned?

You should have your drains cleaned at least once every few years. This could change depending on how often your system is used, how much it can handle, and how old it is. Also, you'll need to clean your outdoor and basement sinks more often if it rains a lot where you live.

How can I keep drains from clogging up again?

By taking a few steps, you can stop clogs from happening again. Some things we can do after cleaning drains to keep them from getting stuck again are:

Don't put things that are made of plastic, oil, and a few other things down your drains.

To keep things from getting in, use cheap drain plugs, screens, and traps.

To get rid of clogs, run hot water down the drain often.

Always have a professional clean your drains.

Can a plunger scratch the surface of my toilet?

Even though plungers are made of soft, rubbery material, pushing too hard on them can leave lines, scratches, and other damage on the surface. If you scratched your toilet by plunging it, you can find simple directions on how to fix it online.

Is it safe to use Drano in my toilet and pipes?

If you do a quick search on the Internet, you'll find that most, if not all, skilled plumbers say not to use Drano or any other chemical drain cleaners like it. When a chemical reaction happens in your toilet, sink, or pipes, it gets very hot and hurts the inside of your pipes.

Even Drano doesn't work all the time. If you try to get rid of standing water with Drano and it doesn't work, the fitting will be full of dangerous chemicals. The blockage is harder to get rid of because of this.

Do plungers work?

If it's used right, yes! Whether your toilet or sink is clogged, a strong plunger should be able to move the blockage and get the water moving again.

Here's the right way to use a plunger:

Put the plunger right on top of the drain to make a good fit.

Keep the seal while you move the tube back and forth for about 30 seconds.

Test it by taking off the top.

If you must,

What kind of pump should I use?

At your local hardware shop or department store, you can find different kinds of plungers. The following are some of the most popular types of plungers:

Cup Style: A traditional plunger looks like a cup. Cup-style plungers work best in tubs and on other flat surfaces. They have a red rubber cup and a wooden stick.

Flange Style: Also called a toilet plunger, these plugs have a cup on the end that goes right in the toilet drain. This can be used on any drain, and it's easy to make the seal needed to get rid of both small and big clogs.

Accordion Plunger: Like the flange style, accordion plungers look weird, but they are very strong. Even though it's not great for every drain in the house, it's best for toilet clogs because it makes more pressure.

The basic plunger is cheap and can be used almost anywhere, but it doesn't have enough power to clear out big jams. We suggest that you use a flange-style plunger for clogs around the house because of this. This makes sure that any drain that needs repair can be sealed well.
