How to Tell You Have a Clogged Drain

Recognizing the signs of a clogged drain early enough can save you time, money, and stress. If you notice any of these warning signs of a clogged drain, call our convenient 24/7 live answering service and one of our friendly dispatchers will quickly schedule an appointment for you. Look out for these signs of a clogged drain:

• Water that keeps backing up into your sink, bathtub, or shower
• Pools of water forming around your drains, then draining very slowly
• Soap scum building up on the floor of your bathtub or shower because water is draining so slowly
• Your toilet bubbling while running the bathroom sink
• Your drains making a strange noise when you’re using the washing machine or dishwasher
• Pools of water on the floor near the bathtub, shower, or sink
• Odors of rotting food at the kitchen drain
• A noticeable odor of sewage in or around your home

Clearing a Clogged Drain with a Plunger

Sometimes you can clear a clogged drain with store-bought drain cleaner and a plunger, so you don’t need to call a professional. If you have a clogged shower drain or your bathtub drain is clogged, you likely need a professional to use a powerful plumbing snake or drain rooter to pull out hair and debris from the pipes. For clogged drains in sinks, use these steps to clear the clog:

• Use a cup plunger
• If the drain clog is in a double sink, plug up one of the drains with a wet towel or rag before you begin
• If the drain clog is in a bathroom sink, cover up the sink overflow hole before you begin
• Place the plunger over the center of the drain
• Move the plunger up and down rapidly to create a seal
• Remove the plunger and re-center it over the drain
• Then continue plunging rapidly and forcefully for 2-3 minutes, or until the standing water starts draining

If using a plunger and drain cleaner doesn’t work, you need to call a service professional to clear your clogged drain. Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Humboldt & Del Norte has specialized tools, equipment, and experience to clear clogged drains quickly and easily.

Fix Clogged Drains Quickly to Prevent Bigger Problems

Fixing clogged drains quickly can prevent bigger and costlier problems down the road. If you let a clogged drain sit, it will eventually cause rust and corrosion in your plumbing - especially if you keep trying to treat it with store-bought drain cleaner. This corrosion will eventually lead to cracks and breaks in your pipes, or it can cause a big enough clog that you end up with a sewer system backup.
