FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
About Drain Clearing & Clog Removal
What causes most household drain clogs?
In the kitchen, clogs are often caused by grease, food scraps, and soap scum that build up over time. In bathrooms, hair, soap residue, and toothpaste can block sink and tub drains. Toilets can clog due to excessive paper or non-flushable items. Even clean homes can deal with clogs—especially in older plumbing systems where buildup occurs more quickly or pipes have narrowed with age.
Can I use store-bought drain cleaner instead of calling a plumber?
Chemical drain cleaners might offer a temporary fix, but they often cause more harm than good. These products can corrode pipes, damage seals, and even make future clogs worse. Our drain clearing methods are safe, professional, and designed to solve the problem without damaging your plumbing.
How do you clear clogs without damaging the pipes?
We use specialized plumbing snakes, augers, and manual tools designed to remove the blockage without scratching or breaking your pipes. In more stubborn cases, we may use water jetting or video inspection to ensure the pipe is fully cleared and undamaged.
How can I prevent future clogs?
Be mindful of what goes down the drain. Use drain catchers in showers and sinks to trap hair and debris. Avoid pouring grease or oil down the kitchen sink, and never flush wipes or paper towels. As a Care Club member, you’ll also receive regular inspections and maintenance that can spot slow drains and buildup before they cause a problem.
Do you offer emergency drain clearing?
Yes, we do. If you have a completely blocked toilet, an overflowing sink, or standing water in your tub or basement, call us right away. We offer same-day emergency service for drain clearing throughout Wallingford and surrounding areas.
What are the best materials for drain clearing & clog removal in modern homes?
High-strength augers, hydro-jetting equipment, and bio-safe enzyme treatments are effective and preserve modern pipe materials like PVC or PEX.
How does drain clearing & clog removal differ for older homes in Connecticut?
Older homes often have cast iron or clay drain lines prone to tree root intrusion or corrosion. Gentle methods are needed to prevent damage.
What’s the average cost of drain clearing & clog removal services in Wallingford, CT?
Typical costs run $150 to $500 for standard clogs; severe blockages or tree root removal can cost more.
