“Oh no! I have clogged pipes, is there any tips I can do before calling a plumber?” Answer sponsored by:

Answer:

Happy New Year! This time of year, things happen. Clogged pipes are one of them. We’ve all been there: You’ve flushed your toilet and the water slowly starts to rise! It’s time to grab that plunger.

Although it might seem self-explanatory, there are proper plumbing techniques to follow when attempting to unclog something. Here are our do’s and don’ts:

DO • Use natural ingredients as an alternative to drain clearers. • Use a drain filter. • Call a plumber if you need more help!

DON’T • Use chemical drain cleaners. • Use a plunger if you’ve poured a chemical unclogger into the drain. • Use too much force.

Drains not moving even after you’ve tried home remedies? It’s time to call a professional. While most clogs happen due to minor buildup and are easily removed, severe buildup can make it difficult for household solutions to get the job done. To know whether you need professional drain unclogging services, here are a few signs to look out for: - Frequent clogging - Standing water in sinks and tub - Overflowing toilets - Foul odors coming from drains - Low water pressure.
