My Pipe Snake Got Stuck. Why Is My Clogged Drain Worse?

If your pipe snake gets stuck, it might mean the clog is more complicated than expected, or there might be a broken pipe causing the issue. This can worsen the clog because the snake might push the clog deeper or damage the pipe. It's best to call an expert if this happens. Our professionals have the tools and experience to safely remove the snake and address any underlying issues causing the clog. It's also important to use caution when attempting DIY drain cleaning, as it can cause more harm than good if not done correctly.

What Are Some Simple Ways to Fix a Clogged Drain?

For a DIY approach, you can use a plunger or a mix of baking soda and vinegar to try and clear the clog. Pouring hot water down the drain can also help melt some clogs. However, if these methods don't work, it's best to call a professional for help to avoid causing further damage or worsening the clog. Prevention such as regular maintenance and proper waste disposal can also help prevent clogged drains in the future. Ultimately, it's essential to address clogs promptly and with caution to avoid more severe plumbing issues.

Why Do I Need a Professional to Clear a Clogged Drain?

Sometimes, a clog is too tough or deep for you to get rid of alone. Our experts have special tools and skills to clear the clog without damaging the pipes. They can also spot any more significant problems that might be causing the clogs. Additionally, DIY drain cleaning methods may only temporarily fix the issue and could cause more harm than good if not done correctly. It's best to leave tough clogs to the professionals to prevent further damage and ensure a proper and lasting solution.

How Can I Prevent Clogged Drains in My Home?

Avoid putting grease, coffee grounds, and food scraps down the sink to prevent clogged drains. In the bathroom, use a hair catcher in the shower, and don't flush anything down the toilet except for toilet paper. Additionally, scheduling routine maintenance and inspections with our professional team can catch any potential issues early on before they become major clogs. Educating yourself and your family about proper disposal habits can go a long way in preventing clogged drains and keeping your plumbing system healthy. Ultimately, small efforts now can save you from bigger problems in the future.

What Drain Cleaning Products Work Best?

The best drain cleaning products are those marked as safe for pipes and eco-friendly. Look for ones that specifically say they won't harm your plumbing. Products like baking soda and vinegar can also help clear clogs without the harsh chemicals. It's important to avoid using products with bleach or corrosive chemicals, as they can damage your pipes and harm the environment. Regular use of these products can also lead to the need for more frequent drain cleanings, leading to added expenses in the long run. Consider contacting our team at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Denver for recommendations on safe and effective drain cleaning products.

Don’t Wait to Treat the Signs of Clogged Drains

Clogged drains can spell lots of frustration because dislodging the clog itself with a plunger and some store-bought drain cleaners sometimes isn’t enough.

If you’re experiencing any of these common signs of a troublesome drain clog, we highly recommend having our service professionals at Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Denver today address the issue and help prevent further damage from occurring to your plumbing system.
