Are your drains causing issues you haven’t discovered yet? Don’t wait for a disaster to get your drains inspected. There are signs and symptoms to a drain issue that you can monitor.
Problems Caused by Clogged Drains:
- Slow Drainage: This is often the first sign of a clog. Water takes longer than usual to drain from sinks, tubs, or showers.
- Standing Water: Water pools in sinks, tubs, or showers and doesn’t drain completely.
- Gurgling Sounds: Strange gurgling noises coming from drains can indicate a blockage.
- Foul Odors: Trapped debris and bacteria can cause unpleasant smells to emanate from drains.
- Overflowing Drains: In severe cases, clogged drains can lead to overflowing sinks, tubs, toilets, or even sewage backups.
- Pipe Damage: Over time, clogs can put stress on pipes, leading to leaks, cracks, or bursts.
- Health Hazards: Standing water and sewage backups can create unsanitary conditions and pose health risks.
Symptoms Homeowners Should Watch For:
- Multiple Clogged Drains: If multiple drains in your home are clogged simultaneously, it could indicate a blockage in the main sewer line.
- Sewage Backup: Sewage backing up into sinks, tubs, or toilets is a serious problem that requires immediate attention.
- Slow Drains After Drain Cleaning: If drains clog frequently or slow down shortly after being cleaned, there may be an underlying plumbing issue, such as tree root intrusion or pipe damage.
- Unusual Noises: Gurgling, bubbling, or hissing sounds coming from drains can indicate a blockage or other problem.
