Your Plumber for Clogged Drains
We usually don’t realize how much we use our sinks, showers and tubs until there’s a tough clog blocking our way. Clogged drains can quickly stop your daily activities, making showering and washing dishes almost impossible. While some drains can be cleared at home, others become clogged drains deep in the pipe. That’s when you need a pro to help you out!
All Aloha Plumbing has the team of drain cleaners that you need to make quick work of your tough drain clog. With years of expertise and specialized tools, we can get your pipes flowing smoothly again. All you have to do is call and start your service request today!
What Causes Drain Clogs?
While both kitchen and bathroom drains are designed to move our wastewater out of the home, they’re actually easily clogged by very common materials. While some drain maintenance can reduce the frequency of clogs, professional drain cleaning is recommended to keep your pipes in optimum condition. Here are some of the things that can cause buildup and lead to a clogged drain:
- Hair
- Soap residue
- Food residue
- Paper products
- Grease
- Foreign Objects
Even the normal things we use to clean, like soap, can actually lead to a buildup inside your pipes over time. This means that pretty much anything going down the drain can cause a clog or blockage. The trick is to know how to resolve it once it happens and who to call for those professional-level clogs!
Drain Clearing Solutions
We commend homeowners who attempt to clear tough clogs themselves, but DIY drain clearing can actually make the situation worse or delay professional help too long. As soon as nasty water starts to back up out of other drains, you’ll wish you called our team sooner. One of the most common DIY tactics to clear a drain clog is to use chemical cleaner from your local store. While this harsh chemical cleaner will eat through part of the clog, the problem is usually far from solved.
You don’t need that pesky clog forming again in a matter of weeks, and you certainly don’t want a clog to form deeper in your plumbing. Our team at All Aloha Plumbing brings the big guns when we need to clear a drain. We have several special tools we use to speed up the process like drain snakes, pipe cameras, hydro jetting and more!
Plus, you can always trust that our team will work with professionalism and respect for your home. We don’t leave messes — we fix them. That’s what sets us apart in the Oahu community!
Signs of a Clogged Drain
The key is to recognize a clogged drain as soon as possible to limit the size of the clog that is forming. There are obvious signs, like no water draining, but there are more subtle indicators as well.
- Slow draining water
- Foul smells
- Backed-up water
- Visible blockages
A clogged shower drain is usually noticeable when water collects on the floor instead of draining immediately. When a kitchen drain is clogged, you might notice that your garbage disposal isn’t clearing the collected water or that there are foul smells coming from the sink. Keep a close eye on these signs and call a professional if the clog can’t be resolved quickly!
