How To Tell If Your Pipes Are Clogged

It may not be easy to notice if you have a clogged drain, and sometimes you can see the signs before the drain is completely blocked off. Clogged drains can happen easily if the wrong material or waste ends up in your pipes.

If you notice the following symptoms, it might be time to take action before you have a serious inconvenience on your hands:

  • Your toilet isn’t flushing - If your toilet isn’t flushing, you likely have a clog caused by overuse of toilet paper or flushing non-flushable objects, such as a child’s toy or a sanitary napkin.
  • Your drains smell - Trapped food particles in your kitchen or bathroom sink usually cause fetid drain smells. Most organic material should get flushed away if your pipes are working as they ought. If you notice rotting food smells, it could be that food particles are getting caught on something in the pipe.
  • Your drains gurgle - Similarly to drain smells, your drains shouldn’t gurgle regularly. A gurgle indicates trapped air in your pipes, which could be caused by a clog or an issue with your sewer line.
  • Water drains more slowly than average - One of the most common signs of a clog is slow draining. For example, if you notice yourself standing in a pool of water during your shower, there may be something wrong with your shower drain.
  • You notice unexplained puddles of water around your yard - Puddles of water in your yard isn’t a good sign, especially if it hasn’t rained recently. It could indicate that your sewer line has been clogged or breached by a tree root or other obstruction. If you notice this issue, call one of our skilled plumbers to examine the problem immediately.

DIY Drain Cleaner

Clean shower drain after drain cleaning services in Bradenton, FL​Some clogs are relatively easy to fix yourself, but you have to be very careful about how you handle your pipes. Depending on the age of your pipes and the material they’re made of, you shouldn’t try to unclog your drain using caustic chemicals. Most chemicals designed to dissolve drains usually sit in your pipes until it removes the clog. However, these chemicals can also eat through PVC pipes, damage pipe glue, and crack toilet bowls in the meantime. They can also be highly corrosive to your skin and generate fumes that irritate your eyes and lungs.

We recommend the following to try and remove the clog yourself:

  • Plunging your drain: Using a traditional drain cleaning tool like a plunger is one of the first strategies we recommend. Plungers create a vacuum in your drain that will, hopefully, dislodge whatever material has sealed it and prevented water from draining.
  • Removing the clog with a hanger or drain snake: Use a long, flexible hanger or a drain snake to try and break up whatever is clogging your kitchen or bathroom sink. This technique may involve disconnecting your p-valve.
  • Pouring boiling water down the drain: Many clogs are a build-up of organic materials and some type of soap residues, such as hand soap or dish soap. The hot water loosens the clog by liquifying any soap residue that may be contributing to the clog.

If none of these methods work, our plumbing technicians have a fool-proof way to remove a clog in your toilet or sink by using HydroScrub jetting technology. It’s the best drain unclogger and the most effective drain cleaning method available in the plumbing industry today!
