What Counts as a Clogged Drain?

A drain is clogged anytime it’s obstructed by a foreign object or food debris. Over time, debris and residue can build up, making it impossible for water to get through. Some clogs are very minor and can be corrected with DIY measures, but other instances require the help of a professional.

Why Do Clogs Happen?

Drain lines get clogged for several reasons. While some seem obvious—like a foreign object getting stuck in the drain—other clogs are a bit sneakier. Any debris or residue that doesn’t break down quickly on its own could cause a clog over time. Common clog-causing materials include:

Eggshells
Grease
Oil
Fibrous foods
Hair
Soap
Dead skin
Paper products
Minerals in water

How You Can Prevent a Clogged Drain

Preventing clogged shower drains is key to avoiding inconvenience for you and your family. Luckily, taking a proactive approach to clogs can minimize your chances of needing plumbing help. Consider which types of clogs you’re most at risk for. For example, if you tend to shed a lot of hair, keep a close eye on your bathtub drain and put a guard over it when you shower. If your dishwasher tends to clog, consider scraping leftover food into the trash can rather than pouring it down the drain. When all else fails, you can always resort to these simple DIY solutions to clogged drains:

Use a plunger to dislodge clogs
Snake a hair removal tool down the drain
Remove and clean the sink trap
Pour a liquid opener into the drain and wait for the clog to dissolve
