What Are the Signs of a Blocked Drain?

It isn’t always easy to identify blocked drains unless they are clogged completely and backing up. Still, a few signs can help you tell that there’s a blockage before it ever makes a mess or causes any severe damage. Since you have the most familiarity with the drainage system, we advise you to monitor if and when something isn’t working as it should.

Here are some warning signs a plumber should check your drains:

• Your bath or sink empties slowly, or water pools
• It is difficult to flush your toilet
• A noxious smell of bacteria, mould, or rot is emanating from your pipes

What Are the Causes of Blocked Drains?

A wide variety of things cause drain blockages, which is why you need to check your drains regularly. Here are some of the most common causes of drain blockages in residential properties:

• Leftovers and Food Products: The debris, oils, and fats that come from cooking your food can find their way into the pipes and thicken, which catches other debris, thereby promoting clogging.
• Hair and Hair Products: Hair and hair products can also contribute to blocked drains. Hair products contain various chemicals and oils that can make blockages larger, while the hair that goes down the drain sticks to the jams until the drain is clogged completely.
• Flushable Wipes: While many companies advertise their wipes as flushable, they usually cause pipe blockages. If the flushable wipes don’t break down in the plumbing system, they create a bottleneck that can clog the whole system.
• Sanitary Items: Paper towels, along with other sanitary items, can clog your toilet as well as your drains. Especially if you already have a minor blockage, oversized items that cannot break down are caught in those blockages, thus creating larger plugs. In these cases, you almost always need a plumber since the clogs are usually too large for the drain cleaners found at local stores.

CalgaryRegular Drain Cleaning to Protect Your Plumbing

Investing in regular drain cleaning and taking care of your drains is easy to save money on home maintenance repairs in Calgary. Drain cleaning is essential since clogged drains can lead to expensive messes and severe plumbing issues.

CalgaryHow to Prevent Clogged Drains

Debris can build up in any drain over time. The typical causes are hair in the shower drains (if you have family members with long hair) along with fats and food debris in kitchen sinks. To prevent such problems, you can:

• Use Bio-Clean safe drain cleaner regularly.
• Remove all food debris from pans, pots, and plates before washing in your sink or stacking in your dishwasher.
• Avoid pouring grease or fat down your kitchen sink – especially if it is solid at room temperature, like vegetable shortening, lard, or butter.
• Use a hair trap in your shower. You can buy it at any hardware store, and it does not require installation.

Beware of Off-the-Shelf Chemical Drain Cleaners

It is easy to assume that you can put anything down your drain and then use commercial chemicals to flush it out every once in a while. Unfortunately, many chemicals end up damaging your plumbing, particularly PVC pipes. Copper pipes can be vulnerable too. Chemical drain cleaners are also unable to fix larger clogs.
