Why/When should I clean my drains?
Fall is drain cleaning season. If you’ve been putting off the clogged or slow drains in your bathroom, laundry room, or kitchen sink, it’s time to get those cleared. Without a proper drain cleaning, it can lead to serious clogging and other problems in your home that could lead to more money being spent.
What’s Causes a Blocked Drain
- Your Bathroom
Not to be graphic here, but because your body naturally sheds hair when getting washed off in the shower, it most often ends up in the drain. A blocked drain can also occur from toilet paper, diapers, and other toiletries being flushed down the toilet. - Your Kitchen
One BIG no-no is grease and food fat should never go down the drain. These will harden and stick to the piping when it gets cold. Additionally, food waste and other particles often fall down the drain during cooking or washing dishes. Learn how to avoid clogging from fats, oils, and grease. - The Laundry Room
Lint and other debris are often the clogged drain troublemakers in here. You’ll often find dirt and grime build-up in the laundry sink, which will also block the drain.Over time, you’ll often find these drains will frequently clog or drain slowly.This should be when you get your drains cleaned.
