A clogged drain, though common, is an inconvenience most homeowners have to deal with from time to time. Just like other aspects of your home, drains must be maintained and cleaned regularly to prevent more significant problems. If left alone, drain blockages can lead to pipe leaks, flooding and structural damage.
At Gotelli Plumbing we have decades of industry experience, so we don’t balk at the sight of clogged drains. We can help you spot the warning signs of drain clogging, identify the cause and remove stubborn blockages. For thorough plumbing and drain services in San Rafael that you can depend on, turn to our team.
Sometimes it can seem like a clog came from nowhere. By understanding the common causes of plumbing blockages, you can avoid this household issue.
One of the most frequent causes of drain blockages is hair. Hair has a way of sticking together and causing a clogged shower drain or a backed-up sink. Another culprit is mineral buildup from hard water or built-up grease from certain brands of bar soap.
Also, small objects can cause big problems when they find their way into your drains. Avoid flushing or sending things down the drain that are meant to be tossed in the garbage. Toilet paper buildups are also very common, especially in older homes.
The good news is, Gotelli Plumbing is prepared to take on any drainage challenge in the San Rafael area — reach out today!
Minor drain clogs can be harmless when dealt with quickly, but some clogs can cause extensive damage to your plumbing. Luckily, there are clear warning signs that can help you identify when your drain is showing signs of clogging.
Drain clogs affect more than just the sink or tub where the blockage formed. Clogs can cause negative pressure to form in your plumbing, create leaks or lead to flooding in your home. Let our team clear your drains and get your system back to normal.
