What’s Causing Your Drains to Clog?
A blocked drain can happen for a whole ton of reasons. This can range from anything to excess hair in the bathtub mixed with soap, to cooking grease in your kitchen sink. As a general rule of thumb, you should always try your best to avoid throwing certain things into the drain, including:
- Oils and grease
- Excess hair
- Dirt
- Cat litter
- Large cooking scraps
- Baby wipes
- Paper towels
While it may be unavoidable in some instances, a good option is to always put a grate or filter over your drain. With regular cleaning, you can avoid clogs altogether. Once they take root, however, a professional drain cleaning service may be needed.
How Can a Blocked Drain Affect Your Home
Clogged drains are more than just about slow drainage. They can also result in issues like low water pressure and wear and tear on your pipes. In some instances, a blockage can be so large, that it creates excess pressure in your plumbing. Over time, that same pressure can culminate into a larger emergency issue like a burst pipe. What starts as a small nuisance can easily turn into a plumbing emergency in the span of a few days, so always try to avoid putting off plumbing repairs.
