Clogged Pipes

Clogged sink drain

Say Adios to blockages and keep your pipes flowing

Few things disrupt your day like a clogged pipe. Whether you’re dealing with a slow-draining sink or a full backup, plumbing issues often happen when you least expect them. At R & S Plumbing we’ve handled it all—and we’re ready to resolve the problem quickly, safely, and professionally.

Indicators You’ve Got a Pipe Problem

In some cases, it’s clear right away. In others, a clog may develop gradually. Here are a few warning signs to look out for:

  • Water drains slowly (or not at all)
  • Gurgling sounds coming from your drains
  • Bad smells coming from sinks or tubs
  • Frequent backups in toilets or tubs
  • Standing water or leaks under sinks

 

If any of these sound familiar, it’s time to call in the professionals before things get worse.

What Causes Clogged Pipes?

Clogs can happen for many reasons, and understanding what caused the blockage can help you prevent future issues:

  • Hair and  Soap Scum: Bathroom sinks, showers, and tubs are well known for collecting grime and clumps of hair. 
  • Grease & Food Waste: Kitchen drains aren’t designed for trash, even if you have a garbage disposal. Items like rice and bacon grease can cause clogs and other problems.
  • Flushed Non-Flushables: Toilets aren’t meant for wipes, paper towels, or hygiene products.
  • Tree Roots: Roots can creep into underground pipes, causing major damage over time.
  • Aging or Damaged Pipes: Older pipes can rust, crack, or collapse, leading to slow drainage or total blockage.

 

No matter the cause, we’ve got the tools and expertise to find the issue and fix it fast.

Research Local Options

  • Read Reviews: Check online reviews to get an idea of the company’s reputation. Look for consistent positive feedback and how they handle complaints.
  • Ask for Recommendations: Friends, family, and neighbors can be a great resource for finding reliable services.
  • Check Credentials: Ensure the company is licensed and insured. This protects you in case of accidents or damage during the service.
