Bathroom Troubleshooting Medium Safety

Why’s my drain clogged?

Clogged drains happen for a variety of reasons depending on where the clog is:

Bathroom drains – Hair, soap scum, and toothpaste buildup are the usual culprits.

Kitchen sinks – Grease, food particles, and coffee grounds accumulate over time.

Multiple drains slow? – This often points to a bigger issue like tree roots in your sewer line, a belly (sag) in the pipe, or a main line blockage.

Quick test: If just one fixture is slow, the clog is probably local and you can try a plunger or drain weasel. If multiple drains are backing up, you likely have a main line issue that needs professional attention.

For stubborn or recurring clogs, we can run a camera down the line to see exactly what’s going on. Would you like help scheduling a drain inspection?
