"The water drains were backed up throughout the house. I called McKenzie Plumbing in the morning. They said they were booked solid but would fit me in that same day. Late that afternoon their service technician (Sven) came. He located the main clean-out connection just outside the house. After only a few minutes he was able to pressure out the pipe leading to the main sewer line at the road. This unclogged the drain and the sewer was flowing freely. However, three days later the sewer backed up again. This time Sven came out within two hours. He put a pluming snake down the clean-out this time but could not clear the line. He then checked the clean-out connection at the road and found the main PWC sewer line was blocked. Sven called PWC and they came within an hour and worked for 4 hours to clear the clog. Throughout the whole process McKenzie Plumbing and Sven treated me like they put the customer first. I highly recommend their services."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

The P-trap (or S-trap in older homes) under your shower is designed to prevent sewer gas from coming back up, so you shouldn’t normally experience foul odors coming from your shower drain. If you do, the vent stack that introduces air into your plumbing system may be clogged, or you may have a more severe sewer main blockage. In either case, hire a plumber to fix the issue for you.

Professionals use snakes, hydrojetting, or chemical cleaners to clear blockages effectively without damaging pipes.

No, you should avoid using liquid drain cleaners. These chemicals, often packed with sulfuric or hydrochloric acid, can wreak havoc on your pipes, causing erosion and potential leaks. They’re also dangerous to your health. If you’re dealing with a stubborn clog, manual removal or a professional plumber is your best bet. Chemical drain cleaners can often make things worse, especially if the clog stays put and the chemicals linger in your pipes.

There are a few ways to unclog a toilet without a plunger. Break up the clog with homemade solutions containing soap, vinegar, and baking soda, or simply let hot water spend some time in the drain. You can also use a two-liter soda bottle filled with water to push pressurized water into the pipe to dislodge the debris (see the steps above).

Yes, chemical drain cleaners contain sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid, both of which are not only dangerous to your health but also extremely caustic. Drain cleaners will corrode your pipes and could lead to destroyed drain lines, especially if the chemicals interact with the piping for long periods. Unfortunately, this extended interaction is likely if you’re dealing with a clog, as the drain cleaner will have just as much trouble as water does moving through your plumbing system.
