Clogged drains come from household items we put down our sinks and disposal units. Some leave a viscous film that adheres to the walls of the pipes which in turn impedes the flow of water. Some can lead to serious damage and sewer repair in Shoreline, WA.
Price Busters Plumbing and Sewer lists down the usual suspects behind a clogged drain. These are the items we’ve found blocking the drains from our years of sewer repair services.
What are some household items that clog your drain?
Grease, fats, and oils
Some homeowners have a habit of throwing grease and oils into their kitchen sinks. They stick to the inner surfaces and trap food scraps and particles. This will build up and cause major clogging. Worse, the grease will solidify after it cools, making it more difficult to remove.
Food scraps and coffee grounds
All food scraps belong to the garbage. When they fall into your sink, they can build up along with any grease, oil, or sticky substances.
Paper goods, cotton swabs, and wipes
Paper towels, tissue, and other waste toiletries belong in the garbage too. You don’t want to experience toilet clogging in the middle of the night, do you?
Hair
Human and pet hair can accumulate and entangle in your bathroom and shower drains. It will result in a bathroom or sewer backup. Use a drain filter to catch them before they cause a problem down there.
Tree roots
Storm drains and sewers can become clogged from trees and plants outside. Trees with extensive underground branches will end up breaking into sewer and drain pipes, in search of water sources. You’ll often find the problem late, leaving you needing sewer pipe repair.
A clogged drain can be an easy fix, but if left too long, can turn into a bigger issue.
