SIGNS OF A CLOGGED DRAIN

Is the water in your sink refusing to go down the drain? Maybe you have water backing up into your toilet or shower drain. It is likely because your sink or sewer line is clogged. Something is obstructing the path the water needs to flow. While it is much quicker and easier to unclog a sink drain than a main sewer line, it is important that you hire a professional to make sure the clog is removed properly as to not harm your houses pipes and fixtures.

Over the years, Team Plumbing has had the opportunity to acquire multiple sewer and drain cleaning machines, so that we can properly serve everybody’s needs.

DRAIN AND SEWER CAMERA INSPECTION

In addition to our sewer and drain cleaning service, Team Plumbing has the ability to run a camera down your drain after the blockage has been removed. Running a camera down the problem drain has two major benefits. First, it can often times inform you of what originally caused the drain to back-up. Second, and more importantly, the camera has the ability to show whether or not you will have continuing problems. By electing to have Team camera your drain, we will also provide you with a DVD showing you the condition of your drains and sewer. This is a valuable item that other companies charge extra for or simply don’t even offer.

COMMON REASONS FOR A CLOGGED BATHROOM OR KITCHEN DRAIN

Discovering the cause of your sewer and drain issue will help you fix and avoid future complications. Below are some tips to help you steer clear of any undue blockages, along with a few signs to look for if you believe you have a clogged drain.

There are a few things to be aware of to help avoid clogged kitchen and bathroom drain lines:

• Hair is always floating through the air, especially if you have pets in your home. Everyday use clogs the sink eventually, but everyday bathroom activities such as hair brushing, styling, and shaving increase the chances of your sink getting clogged due to hair buildup. Even though it may only be a few strands of hair at a time, they build up and knot with each other until the sink gets clogged.
• Grease is one of the most common causes of clogged drains in the kitchen. When you drain grease while cooking, in time the grease will solidify and impede the passageway. The grease will solidify faster if you run cold water during or after you pour it down the drain.
• Food may also be slowing down your drain. Even if it wasn’t intended to be there. Scraps that get stuck on dishes and rinsed off, build up until it blocks the path. Although you may think that softer foods won't clog the drain, it only takes one hard piece of food to pass through and cause softer food particles to stick and block the path completely.
• Foreign objects can also find their way down your drain. If you have young kids in the house, you know how curious they can be. It is not uncommon for kids to see what they can fit down the opening. You may also accidentally drop something like a piece of plastic, wrapping, or a makeup cap from cosmetics down the drain. They typically flow unreservedly until they get to P-Trap, where they have the best chance at getting lodged.
  

​SEWER DRAIN CLOG

Maybe your toilet or shower is not draining properly. This could be the sign of a clogged sewer drain. A clogged sewer drain is a very serious problem. If your sewer drain is clogged, the water has no place to go and it will likely come back up through your household plumbing. When you have a sewer drain clog, you should NOT use any of the plumbing in your home until the blockage is cleared.

If you suspect that you have a sewer drain clog it is important to confirm this and clear it right away. There are several ways to verify a sewer drain clog.

Signs that you may have a sewer drain clog:

Multiple Fixtures Clogged - A very clear sign of a sewer drain clog is when more than one plumbing fixture backs up at the same time. Toilets are the most affected by this, but other fixtures can also be involved. If you suspect that you have a sewer drain clog start by checking other fixtures in the home.

• Toilets have the most direct path to the sewer and the biggest drain line in the house. If a sewer drain problem arises, your toilets will be affected. It is atypical to have a main line sewer stoppage where the toilets are working properly.
  
  

Tub and Shower - Other drains typically affected by a main line stoppage are those in the tub and shower. This is due to the fact that they sit lower than a sink drain. Check whether the tub and shower drains are blocked if you suspect a sewer drain clog.

Strange Reactions When Using Fixtures - The next thing to look for when you suspect a sewer drain clog are any strange reactions when using your plumbing.

• Flush The Toilet - If flushing the toilet causes water to back up or come up into the tub or shower this is generally a sign of a sewer drain block.
• The flushed water that can not go down the sewer drain flows back up the pipes and comes out at the lowest point which is usually the shower drain.
• Use The Sink - Search for trapped air in the plumbing. Run water in your lavatory closest to the toilet for a minute or two. If the toilet bubbles or you see water rising in the bowl, then it is very likely the main sewer line that is blocked, not the toilet.
