Expert Clogged Drain Repair in Asheville

Common Causes of Clogged Drains

• Over time, drains can accumulate debris, soap scum, grease, hair, and even tree roots, which leads to slow drainage or complete blockages. Some of the most common reasons for clogged drains include:

  • Hair and Soap Buildup: Hair and soap are frequent culprits in bathroom sink and shower drains. Over time, they can form tough clogs that require professional intervention.
  • Grease and Food Waste: Kitchen sinks often suffer from grease and food particles solidifying inside the pipes, creating a blockage.
  • Foreign Objects: Whether it’s toys, jewelry, or hygiene products, non-flushable items can accidentally end up in toilets or drains, resulting in severe clogs.
  • Tree Root Intrusion: The underground pipes in your yard can be infiltrated by tree roots searching for water, which can cause major clogs in your sewer lines.
  • Mineral Build-up: In areas with hard water, minerals from the water can accumulate inside pipes, leading to clogs.
