Your home’s drains are typically kept out of sight and out of mind. From the kitchen to the bathroom, we don’t think about the drains in our sinks — until they stop working, that is.

Cleaning clogged drains is a daily task for most plumbers, so the team at Air Tech of Houston AC & Plumbing can get your drain back to work with ease. Call us today if you have a clogged drain in your business or home!

What Causes Drain Clogs?

Whether you’re dealing with frequently clogged drains around your office or don’t encounter them often in your home, you may be scratching your head wondering what’s causing it. While some causes are more common than others, a variety of things could be clogging your drain. The most common of these is hair. It may not seem like it, but we send a lot of hair down our shower drains in particular.

Other common causes are:

Toilet paper buildup
Built-up minerals from hard water
Grease buildup from certain bar soaps
Small objects
Tree root invading the sewer line

Accidents happen, and sometimes small objects get flushed by children or your hair just gets in the way of the drain. However, you can help prevent drain clogs by keeping anything from going down the drain that’s not supposed to. For example, getting a hair catcher for your shower will keep hair from clogging in the drain, and putting only approved items down your garbage disposal will keep it from backing up.

Signs Your Drain Is Clogged

While the average drain clog is a harmless annoyance, some are only part of a larger blockage that can cause extensive damage to your plumbing system. While you may see a sink or shower that won’t drain, the problem could be much bigger — and more expensive — than that, which is why recognizing these signs of a clogged drain is so important. If you’re wondering when it’s time to throw in the towel and call a Houston plumber to have your clog professionally removed, here are some signs that signify a plumber-level problem:

Slow Draining Water

If water collects in your sink or tub and drains very slowly, there is likely a clog forming. The longer it exists, the bigger it grows and the more problematic it becomes.

Strong Odor

Foul smells coming from your drains indicate a pretty severe buildup in your drains.

Toilet Water Bubbles

If the water in your toilet is bubbling, the air is most likely being forced to make its way around a clog in the pipe.

Water Backups

When water begins to back up out of other drains, there is definitely a clog causing the change inflow. Calling a plumber quickly will help you avoid any water damage in your home.
