What Are the Common Causes of Clogs and Backups?

The best way to protect your drains is to prevent a clog from forming in the first place, and the best way to do that is to know what not to let go down them. 

A good general rule is to only ever let water, toilet paper, and human waste go down the drain, but some the most common harmful things that can cause a drain include:

• Food scraps: Even if you have a garbage disposal, food should always be disposed of in the trash. It can get caught in your pipes far too easily and quickly become a larger issue.
• Foreign objects: Small toys, cotton products, "flushable" wipes, and more should never find their way into your drains. It's always safest to dispose of products you intend to dispose of in the trash.
• Grease and oil: Similar to food scraps, these substances should never make their way down the drain. They can get caught and solidify in your drains, creating a massive blockage relatively quickly.
• Hair: It's important to install a hair trap in your shower drain to prevent loose hair from finding its way down the drain.
• Root intrusion: Even the smallest crack in your underground pipes is enough space for a root to start making its way inside. Over time, it will grow until it completely blocks off all water flow.

The Benefits of Having Your Drains Professionally Cleaned

We are often asked if it is genuinely necessary to hire a professional plumber to clean your drains. The short answer is yes, it is. While anybody can pour store-bought gutter cleaner down a sink, these products rarely address the problem. 

They may get your drains flowing a bit better now, but they will be stopped up again after too long. Additionally, these products tend to do more harm than good. Because they contain harsh chemicals, they can damage your drains and sewer, cause rust and corrosion, and diminish your system's lifespan.

How Do Professionals Clean Drains?

For simple clogged work, you can anticipate a professional plumber to clean your drains utilizing a motorized auger (sometimes called a snake), which can cover nearly any obstacle within the pipe. The cleaning usually begins with an auger to remove essential problems.

The benefits of professional drain cleaning include:

• Prevents backups and clogs
• Improves drainage and water pressure
• Protects your pipes from root intrusion, rust, and corrosion
• Extends the lifespan of your plumbing system
• Saves you money on repairs and premature replacements

Our Morgan Hill plumbing team will inspect your system and help you determine the cleaning schedule that is right for you.

Common Signs You Need Drain Cleaning

Over time, buildup accumulates inside your pipes, narrowing the passage through which water can flow. This can cause your entire system to run less efficiently, and you may notice your drains aren’t working as well as they once did.
