DRAIN CLEANING SERVICES
What do we consider a drain cleaning?
- A clogged drain is years of build up leading to slow drainage or a blockage.
What clogs a drain?
- Typically, it is hair and oils that congealed together into water-resistant layers.
- In the case of toilets, too much or too thick paper is flushed and causes a drainage issue.
- Even oils can be from foods, cosmetics, and almost anything we wash off our hands that contributes to build-up.
Why do you need a drain cleaning sooner rather than later?
A clogged drain may seem like a minor setback, however, if unresolved can lead to more complicated plumbing issues. The first sign of buildup or blockage is a slow drain, the pooling of water in your sink or tub, or an odor coming from the drain.
Prevent a plumbing emergency when you book a drain cleaning with our licensed plumbers (519)-439-4328.
How can you unclog a drain?
- Chemically: A solution is used to break up build-up. For example, the old baking soda and vinegar trick sometimes is all you need to clear a slow-draining clog. More potent solutions like Drain-0 may also work, but make sure you are using environmentally friendly products.
- Mechanically: The plunger for your toilet or sink often does the trick. A plumber has specialized tools to scope even deeper into your pipes to safely conduct a drain cleaning without damaging your pipes.

Signs Your Drain Is Clogged
- Slow Moving Water: The water in your sinks and tubs are filling up faster than it drains. Chances are the pipes are clogged.
- Smelly Odours: The drains have a strong smell coming from them is a sign that organic waste is stuck in the pipes and a clogged drain is at risk.
- Waste Backups and Overflows: Water is coming up through the drains of your home is a major sign the pipes are clogged.
- Noises: The drains or pipes are making sounds after the water in the house has been used.
- Multiple drains are not clearing: When several drains in your home are clogging simultaneously, it’s a sign that the issue is deeper within your plumbing system and requires professional attention.
causes & Prevention Tips
A clogged drain is one of the most frequent issues homeowners experience with their plumbing. You may need drain cleaning because of hair buildup, residual soap buildup, toiletries (flushable wipes, feminine hygiene products, cotton, etc.), a poor plumbing setup in general, congealed fast & grease, or foreign objects like toys & jewelry.
Prevention Tips:
The best way to keep drains clear is to limit what you put down them.
- Keep food, coffee grounds, and grease out of your kitchen sink—you could try compost instead
- Pour liquid grease into a sealable container. After it cools, put it in the trash or take it to a recycling center
- Cover your tub and shower drains with a mesh screen or a perforated shower drain. Pro Tip: Brush your hair before you shower or take a bath to remove any loose hair that may fall out in the tub
- When shaving or bathing a pet, try placing a washcloth over the drain
- Watch what you flush. Feminine hygiene products, baby wipes, and other household waste should go in the garbage
