Signs of a Drain Clog 

When a drain becomes clogged, it’s important to seek a solution right away. Not only is dealing with slow-draining fixtures a nuisance, but it can also eventually lead to bigger problems if not dealt with promptly. The best way to know if a drain is clogged is by identifying any unusual occurrences in toilets, sinks, showers, and bathtubs.

The warning signs of a blocked drain include: 

  • Slow draining in sinks, tubs, or showers
  • Water backing up into the sink when a toilet is flushed
  • Excessive gurgling in the pipes 
  • Bad odors coming from the drains
  • Bubbling in the toilet
  • Unusual sounds in the drainpipes 

    “I called in the afternoon about replacing my water heater that had started leaking and they happened to have a cancelation that day and could send someone out right away! Andy was very professional and did a great job explaining everything to me. He even talked with my father on the phone to assure him that it was "Dad Approved"! It was truly appreciated! He got to work right away and had my new water heater all set up in 2hrs! Highly recommend! Amazing service! I got the Knights warranty with my new water heater so I will DEFINITELY be a returning customer!”

When to Call for Professional Drain Clog Removal 

Not every drain clog is an emergency. However, for many blockages, homeowners will require a professional plumber to make sure the issue is completely resolved. Although DIY solutions sometimes break up enough of the clog to restore the flow of water, they typically leave behind parts of the blockage. The result is another clogged drain just a few months or even weeks after the problem has been “fixed.” 

As a general rule, homeowners should always call a plumber to clear away a clog when a plunger doesn’t help. Plumbers have specialized equipment, such as hydro jetting machines, that can directly access the source of the clog to burst through it. If the plunger does work, continue to look out for additional signs of a lingering problem, and consider scheduling a Milwaukee drain cleaning appointment as soon as possible to prevent any future clogs. 

How Often Should Drains Be Cleaned? 

Many homeowners prefer to get their drains cleaned on an as-needed basis. Others, however, desire to clean their drains preemptively to avoid the cost of repairing any potential damage a severe drain clog could cause. Older homes and homes that have a history of drain clogs can especially benefit from drain cleaning as preventative maintenance. 

At Knight Plumbing, we like to prevent problems from occurring in the first place. That’s why we recommend having drains cleaned twice a year. Talk to our professionals today to learn more about the benefits of routine drain cleaning. Or, if it’s a fast clean that’s needed because something is certainly lurking in the drains, we’re the team to rely on.
