Bathroom sinks, tubs and showers
Bathroom drains slow down because soap film and loose hair gather in the trap and then the pipe past it. Once that mass is pulled or flushed out, water should leave the basin without pooling.
Drain Cleaning in Rochester Hills
A slow drain gets worse, not better. We help you reach a plumber who clears the clog and finds out why it formed, whether the trouble is in one sink or the whole house.
Kitchen sinks, bathroom fixtures, laundry drains and the main line are all part of the drain work we help you with.
How a plumber clears a drain
Kitchen lines
Kitchen lines clog because grease hardens as it cools and food scraps stick to it. The plumber works the stretch beyond the sink clear and then runs water to confirm that it flows.
Floor drains and the main line
A bubbling floor drain, or a tub and a toilet that back up at the same moment, points to the main line. That blockage sits deeper than any sink trap, and the equipment is heavier too.
Camera checks
Slow drains that come back call for a camera run through the pipe. Footage of roots, a low spot or a cracked joint settles whether more clearing will do or the pipe needs repair.
What a slow drain is telling you
One slow fixture points to its own trap or branch line. Two or three slow fixtures, or a gurgle in a toilet when a sink drains, point farther down the line.
When the clog is past the house
A clog in the sewer line out of the house is a different job from a sink clog. The sewer repair page covers cameras, roots and repair, and the sewer line age checker helps you weigh the symptoms you see.
If the clog sits deeper than a sink, sewer repair is the page to read. The fixture repair page and the home page are also a click away.
