Shower Head Repairs & Installations

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.

• Leaky faucets: Often caused by worn-out washers, seals, or cartridges.
• Clogged drains: Typically due to a buildup of hair, soap scum, grease, or other debris in the pipes.
• Running toilets: Usually caused by a malfunctioning flapper, fill valve, or flush valve.
• Leaky pipes: These can result from corroded or damaged pipes, loose connections, or faulty seals.
• Low water pressure: This may be due to clogged pipes, a partially closed shut-off valve, or issues with the water supply.
• Water heater issues: Problems such as inadequate hot water, leaks, or strange noises can be caused by sediment buildup, faulty components, or improper temperature settings.
• Garbage disposal jams: Often caused by putting inappropriate items down the disposal or not using enough water while it's running.
• Sump pump failures: Typically due to power outages, a faulty float switch, or a clogged or frozen discharge pipe.
