Sink plungers can often help to clear more minor clogs, but major ones will usually require the help of a professional clogged drain cleaning service. Having all the drains in your home professionally cleaned every year can also greatly help with preventing blockages.
Expert Clogged Drain Cleaning Services
When dealing with a clogged sink or toilet, your first thought may be to use chemical drain cleaner to clear the obstruction. Drain cleaners can be extremely effective as they contain harsh chemicals that will dissolve most any type of clog.
The only problem is that the chemicals are also strong enough that they can seriously damage PVC drain pipes. Drain cleaner will often start eating through the pipe and make it much weaker or cause a leak. Some products also produce a huge amount of heat and can easily cause pipes to warp.
The potential damage these chemicals can cause is the reason we always recommend enlisting the help of professional drain cleaning services when dealing with a major blockage.
The best way to clear stubborn clogs is by using a plumber’s snake, which is essentially an auger connected to a long cable. When clearing a clogged drain, a plumber feeds the snake down the pipe until the auger meets the clog.
As the auger then spins, it will easily break through the obstruction so that the pipe can drain again. The snake also works to pull much of the clog back out of the drain, which is important for ensuring that solid material doesn’t cause a clog further down the pipe.
