Drain Cleaning

A clogged drain can be more than just an annoying circumstance. It can mean that you need to call a plumber for drain cleaning in Aledo, TX, quickly. At best, a clogged drain will drive you crazy. At worst, it can cause a major backup that ends with major water damage happening to your home. When you first notice your drain clogging, there are a few things you can do.

Steps to Take for a Clogged Drain

drain cleaning aledo txWhen you first notice that your drain is clogged, you have a couple of choices. You can always call a plumber in Aledo TX immediately. We’ll happily come out and figure out what has made your drain run slow or stop completely. Some homeowners in Aledo do this because it’s quick and easy and they don’t have to think about the problem any more than is absolutely necessary.

Other homeowners like to try a DIY fix before they call us. That’s great if you have plumbing experience or you take some basic precautions. If you don’t, though, you can damage your home and end up spending even more money to fix it.

First, you can try a chemical solvent. These are sold in most grocery stores, home goods stores, or hardware stores. You’ll want to follow the directions on the individual bottle that you buy, as each brand may tell you to do it slightly differently. Generally, you pour a certain amount of the solvent down your clogged drain. Then, you wait a specified period of time. Finally, you run water down the drain to clear the solvent and see if it has removed your clog. You want to make sure to run the water at the right time, or the solvent can damage or weaken your pipes.

If that doesn’t work, you can rent a plumbing snake at your local hardware store. You want to be careful when you do this. Try to get one that is the proper diameter for the pipes that you’ll be working with, and rent the best quality snake you can find. Also, be sure not to thread the snake more than 3 feet into your pipes before you pull it back. If your snake is the wrong size, or it’s of a low quality, or you put it in too far, you can get it stuck in your pipes. We have had to remove many a plumbing snake that a homeowner has tried to use to clear a clogged drain.

If neither of these solutions clears up your clog, it’s probably time to call for professional drain cleaning in Aledo, TX. At this point, your clog is either extensive or deep in your system. Both of these can require the deft fingers of a skilled plumber to remove. We come with professional grade plumbing snakes, so we can put them in deeper than 3 feet. We also have other tools we can use to remove your clogs.

Call us next time you have a clogged drain, and we’ll show you why we are some of Aledo’s favorite plumbers!
