Q: How do you remove a drain without crosshairs?

• <div><p>If your drain doesn&rsquo;t have metal crosshairs or crossbars, you should use a tub drain extractor. These tools create a grip on the drain so you can turn it using a 1/2-inch ratchet drive, drain key, or wrench. Your drain may not have crosshairs if it's old and broken.</p></div>

Q: What do plumbers use to unclog drains?

• <div><p>Plumbers use a variety of tools to help unclog the toughest of drain clogs, but the most common tools they use are drain snakes and augers. They try a plunger or drain snake to start, then move to heavy-duty augers, and finally try using a hydro jetter to blast away the clog with high-pressure water. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/plumber-cost.htm">Hiring a plumber to unclog a drain costs</a> <b>$125 to $300</b>, largely depending on the extent and location of the clog and which of these methods is best for clearing it.</p></div>

Q: Why is my washing machine stuck on draining?

• <div><p>If the drain pump on your washing machine is continuously draining, it could be that the control board is damaged and requires repair, or there&rsquo;s a clogged or kinked drain hose. If you can&rsquo;t locate the problem, you&rsquo;ll want to have a plumber or appliance repair expert come take a look.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to snake a drain?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-snake-a-drain.htm">Snaking a drain</a> can take as little as a <b>few minutes</b> for small, simple clogs, <b>up to two hours</b> or more for tough clogs located further down the drain line. For tougher clogs, a professional drain cleaner can likely get the job done much more quickly because they have the necessary tools and expertise. However, your drain cleaning pro might not be able to give you a firm time estimate until inspecting the clog and its surrounding plumbing.</p></div>

However, your drain cleaning pro might not be able to give you a firm time estimate until inspecting the clog and its surrounding plumbing.

The first rule of plumbing is nothing but water, toilet paper, number one, and number two go down the drain.

To prevent clogs, get yourself:

A compast pail where you can clean plates, drain grease, and toss scraps and paper towels.
Drain screens for the shower, tub, and bathroom sink to stop hair, jewelry, toys, etc. from going down the drain.
Trash cans for everything that shouldn’t go down the drain, like dental floss, hygiene products, and cat litter.

P.S.: If you do drop your priceless ring down the drain, take a deep breath, and then follow these steps to retrieve jewelry from your drain.
