SIGNS YOU NEED DRAIN CLEANING (1)
Admin • October 10, 2016
Before your drains clog, there are usually a few signs of this impending problem. Clogged drains are a fairly common part of life and can happen to anyone, so there's no need to feel embarrassed about contacting a plumber to help you out. Here are some signs your drains need attention.
ROTTING SMELL
If something is blocking your drain and it's too small to cause a total clog but too big to be easily flushed out, it can begin to rot and stink. Call a plumber before this small, stinky clog becomes a fully backed-up drain.
SLOW DRAINING
Maybe your pipes still drain, but the process is slow. This can be due to a slowly building clog that will eventually cause overflow. Have a slow draining sink or tub checked by a plumber as soon as possible.
STRANGE INTERACTIONS
Does your sink overflow when you run the dishwasher? Does water bubble up from your tub drain when you flush the toilet? If your various plumbing fixtures seem to influence each other, then there could be a small clog lurking somewhere.
If you think a clog is beginning to form in your pipes, don't delay in contacting a plumber. Better a small fix than paying for flood damage. Call Art Douglas Plumbing Inc. at 866-411-6200
