Clogged Drains and Drain Cleaning in Richmond VA

plumbing clogged drains

Clogged drains can be a serious nuisance that can also lead to serious damage. Plumbing issues often go unnoticed because there aren’t always visible signs until it is too late. Sometimes clogged drains are ignored or dismissed as a simple inconvenience and aren’t always resolved when they should be. Waiting too long can often lead to thousands of dollars in repairs and replacement costs.

For example, during a shower you may find yourself standing in a few inches of water because of a partially clogged drain. While you may be willing to live with it, something worse could be happening that isn’t immediately visible. The clog and buildup of water could be causing leakages elsewhere that can damage the subflooring beneath your tub or shower. This could lead to other potential hazards like wood rot or mold growth that could pose serious health and safety risks.

Common causes for clogged drains

The most common causes for clogged drains include hair, soap, food waste and dirt. The kitchen sink isn’t the only place these types of clogs can occur. Shower drains get their fair share of soap, dirt, and hair that can accumulate over time. If multiple fixtures are backing up at the same time, this could mean your main drainage system is clogged or compromised. When this happens it is time to call the professionals.
