Bathroom sinks, tubs and showers
A slow shower or tub can be a plug of hair and soap just below the drain. The plumber feeds a hand auger down the pipe, pulls the plug out and then runs the water to check the flow.
Drain Cleaning in Commerce City
A slow shower drain in a 2010s primary bath, a kitchen sink that backs up or a main line that gurgles all point to a clog. Call, say which drains are slow, and a plumber clears them.
Drain work covers Commerce City and the cities nearby.
How drains get cleared
Kitchen lines
Kitchen sinks back up when cooked fat hardens on the pipe wall. A cable breaks the buildup loose, or a jet washes it away, and a test run confirms the sink empties.
Floor drains and the main line
When several fixtures slow down together, or a floor drain gurgles, the blockage may sit in the main line. A longer cable or a jet reaches it through the cleanout.
Camera checks
If a drain keeps coming back, a camera shows whether the cause is a clog, roots or a damaged pipe. You can see the same picture the plumber sees.
Keeping drains open
Small habits keep lines open. Put a strainer over each tub and shower drain, scrape pans into the trash before washing them, and send nothing but toilet paper down the toilet.
When the clog is past your walls
Where South Adams County Water and Sanitation District serves, the owner owns the wastewater service line, including the tap. A blockage out in the yard is the owner’s to clear, and a camera from the cleanout shows where it sits.
