Signs You Need Professional Drain Clearing

Not sure if you need professional drain cleaning or if your clogged drain can be remedied with a bottle of grocery store drain cleaner? If you’ve noticed that your drains are slow or backing up regularly, or if you’ve already tried using a drain cleaning product and your drain is still clogged, this could be an indication that you might have an issue with your mainline. A professional drain cleaning company like Stang Plumbing can use a camera to find out exactly what is preventing your lines from draining and clear the clog.

It’s important to note that clogs in your kitchen and bathroom drains can eventually back up all the way to your sewer system. Spare yourself the hassle of a major backup and take care of smaller clogs when they come up.

Drain Cleaning FAQs

It’s important to be mindful of what you put down your drains, especially in your kitchen. Grease and oil, rice, and anything else that clings or expands or both need to be thrown away in the trash rather than being sent down your drains, even if you have a garbage disposal.
In many cases, drain cleaning will significantly improve your drainage, but the problems that lead to clogs and slow drains are too numerous to say for certain that any one solution will work to resolve the problem. For example, drain cleaning may not speed up your drains if your drainage’s main problem is a lack of proper ventilation in your plumbing.

Use baking soda and vinegar, scalding hot water with dish soap, plungers and snakes, but NOT harsh chemical plumbing agents. You risk serious damage to your pipes if you use these chemicals without understanding exactly what kind of pipes you have and what sort of interaction the chemicals will have with those pipes. At most, you’ll want to use natural enzymatic plumbing liquids rather than something aggressive like sulfuric acid.

Tree roots frequently grow into drainage pipes over time, breaking into them and then growing further into them. Your drains may still drain even with this damage, but it’ll get worse and worse — and you may have a nasty problem forming in your lawn, even a potential sinkhole. This is, unfortunately, a problem that simple drain cleaning won’t resolve and usually requires pipe replacement.

If your drains seem to be fine after a bit of DIY cleaning, you may be inclined to put the issue off or even consider it solved for good. Unfortunately, clogs are rarely a one-off problem; usually, once you notice clogs or slow drainage, you have problems that need professional attention to be rid of once and for all, such as narrowing of your pipes.

We were very happy with the service we got for a drain blockage and an outdoor faucet replacement. Jason was great, explained things in detail, and went above and beyond to help us.

This is the fourth time over the years, that I have used Stang Plumbing. One time for a leak in the basement, once for a new kitchen sink and faucet install, with me supplying the faucet and the sink, another time for repair of a leak under the kitchen sink. And this time for a garbage disposal install, with Stang plumbing supplying the disposal. Each time they were responsive with an upfront price quote. Each time they arrive the next day as promised. All their personnel are polite and professional. Each time the job was done right and the technician left the job site neat and clean when they finished. I think their prices are resonable and competitive, and I do like that they have senior citizen's discount. Stang Plumbing will always be my first choice, when it comes to my needs for any plumbing work.

We had an intermittent, but very bad, smell that seemed to be coming from our air vents on hot humid days. Countless plumbers and other contractors could not find the source ...for over 15 years! Stang was able to find the problem (a broken vent pipe within a wall) and make the quick fix. The job was done in the Fall and although the problem appeared to be resolved, I decided to wait until it was summer-hot again to be sure. This week has been in the upper 90s with heavy humidity and yet...no bad smells. We are eternally grateful and would recommend Stang to everyone.

I had a leak in my boiler return pipe that was located under my basement floor. Stang was very responsive and came out immediately to give me an estimate. Jon was very knowledgeable and was able to fix the leak without tearing up my entire basement. Jon and mark were great to work with and they both did a great job with the repair, leaving as little mess as possible. I could not be happier with their work.

Louis from Stang is a lifesaver. Our basement was flooding on Sunday night. We called an emergency plumber. He told us to unplug our full basement freezer and get some sandbags (are there 24 hour Home Depots I don’t know about?). He said he would come back at 10am the next morning to try to figure out the source of the problem. I got back online, called Stang, and at 9-10pm on a Sunday night, Louis showed up at our house. Within 15 minutes he had figured out that one of our sump pumps was out and the other was on its last legs. He got one running and solved the immediate source of the flooding. We had him come back a week later and replace both sump pumps. This is the guy to call in an emergency!

This is a quick note to let you know I received excellent service from your company scheduling an appointment on short notice, recommendations on pressure tanks and pumps, and professional service by your plumber who instilled confidence in your work and reputation.

As a home improvement contractor, it’s imperative to have competitive pricing and excellent service with high-quality work. I’m happy working with Stang and having Rob as my project’s lead Plumber. Becky in the office is great and always responsive to our needs.

Your plumber was very pleasant, helpful, and informative about copper pipes and the problems that can occur. He was very neat and cleaned up when the job was completed. I have used one of Stang’s competitors for a period after 40 years.
