Common Causes of Clogged Drains

Clogged drains are a prevalent plumbing issue that can quickly escalate into major problems if not promptly addressed. From slow water drainage to corrosion, flooding, or even sewage backup, a clogged kitchen or bathroom drain can lead to various issues and costly repairs. Fortunately, many drain clogs can be prevented by understanding their causes.

The most common household drain clogs are caused by:

  • Hair
  • Soap
  • Food waste
  • Tree roots
  • Small objects
  • Toilet paper
  • Cooking grease

How to Prevent Drain Clogs

Homeowners face numerous challenges in maintaining their homes, and clogged drains present one of the most significant nuisances.

While it may be tempting to opt for quick and easy solutions like chemical drain cleaners, these products can cause more problems in the long run. They can wear out the inner surface of the pipes, leading to leaks and other damage over time.

Here are some tips to help prevent clogs:

  • Even if you have a garbage disposal, avoid disposing of items like orange peels, banana peels, egg shells, potato skins, and coffee grounds.
  • Run cold water while the garbage disposal is in use, allowing the waste to fully pass through the system.
  • Refrain from pouring oil or grease down the drain, as it can solidify and adhere to the pipes.
  • Consider using screens to catch food particles, hair, and other waste materials.
  • Avoid flushing large amounts of paper down the toilet, especially feminine products that can clog the toilet and even the entire sewer system.
  • Regularly clear out drains of hair and other particles that may have accumulated in the pipes.
  • Schedule appointments with licensed plumbers for periodic root cleaning. We can use specialized techniques such as snaking the main line to eliminate the source of clogs, saving you from costly repairs in the future.
