Be aware of these signs of a clogged drain:
-
-
Slow moving drains
– A sink that fills with water when you wash your hands is a warning sign. If the complaint is limited to a single sink, the blockage is most likely close to the surface. If multiple sinks are slow to drain, the restriction is probably in the sewer line and more difficult to access. Professional service is recommended.
-
Backed-up fixtures
– Does dirty water back up into the sink when you drain the tub or run the dishwasher? Don’t ignore backed-up fixtures. There is the risk of toxic sewage, health hazards and property damage.
-
Sewage odors
– An unpleasant smell from a sink you rarely use could be simply a dried-out P-trap. Run a little water down the drain. If the stench lingers, there’s a bigger problem that requires immediate attention.
-
Musty odors
– A musty smell from the sink or tub drain is often caused by mold growth. The combination of moisture and food, hair, grease, soap or other organic materials creates the perfect breeding ground for mold and bacteria.
-
Pests
– Insects or small rodents in the sink are indications of broken pipes and drain issues. You need a licensed plumber to pinpoint the opening and seal it up.
-
Standing water
– Unexplained water showing up around the dishwasher, washing machine, toilet, sink, shower or floor drain can be a sign of a severe clog. Left unresolved, the blockage will gradually worsen and create more extensive damage.
-
Bubbles and gurgling sounds
– Unusual noises from the drain or in the toilet indicate a sewer clog. Call for drain cleaning right away.
-
Clogging or overflowing toilets
– While the toilet might occasionally clog, repeated problems and overflows indicate that debris is lodged in the drain line. Schedule with Temperature Control for expert drain cleaning services.
