Fixing small clogs to large blockages in Sonoma County
Your home’s plumbing is one big system consisting of pipes, sinks, faucets, and drains. When components such as the drains work, we hardly notice them. However, each piece of plumbing has a high use such as drains with hair, oils, food, hygiene products, and other items that can affect its integrity.
A drain clog can lead to standing water, health risks, water overflow, and flooding.
What causes drains to get clogged?
Since drains travel underground and through bay area homes, they can encounter a problem at numerous points. Many people associate drainage issues with something close to the opening of a drain. However, difficulties can start deep inside a drainpipe, far from its opening.
The following can cause drain clogs:
- Roots
- Ground settling
- Foreign objects
- Drainpipe collapses
- Erosion
- Misaligned drain pipe sections
