drain cleaning services

Known as a plumbing auger, is a flexible metal cable with a corkscrew-like end that is inserted into the drain. As the snake is pushed through the pipe, the corkscrew end grabs onto the clog, breaking it apart or allowing it to be pulled out. The process can be manual, using a hand-cranked snake, or motorized, using a power-driven snake for tougher clogs. The goal is to clear the blockage and restore proper water flow in the drain.

• Try snaking the drain again, using a longer or thicker snake, ensuring that you reach and clear the blockage.
• Inspect and clean the sink's P-trap, which may also be clogged.
• If the problem persists, consult with a professional plumber to accurately diagnose and resolve the issue, as there may be a more significant problem within the plumbing system.

• Use a plunger to attempt to dislodge the clog.
• Snake the drain again, making sure the snake reaches the clog and that you're using the appropriate snake size and type.
• Remove the shower drain cover and check for any visible clogs that can be removed manually.
• If the problem continues, contact a professional plumber for further assistance, as there could be a more serious issue with the plumbing system.
