Q: What dissolves hair in a shower drain?

• <div><p>Baking soda and vinegar aren&rsquo;t just great for making a volcano for your kid&rsquo;s science project. You can also pour this dynamic duo down your shower drain to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-hair-out-your-shower-drain.htm">dissolve hair clogs</a>. If that doesn&rsquo;t do the trick, you can step it up with a commercial liquid drain cleaner. </p></div>

Q: How often should you clean a shower drain?

• <div><p>Even if the shower drain doesn&rsquo;t seem clogged or dirty, plan to clean it out about once per month&mdash;or more frequently if you or your family shed a lot of hair. It&rsquo;s a good practice to remove any hair from the drain on a daily basis, as hair can accumulate fast and cause clogs in no time. You may also want to have a plumber thoroughly clean the drains in your home once every six months.</p></div>

Q: Can I pour bleach down a smelly drain?

• <div><p>Bleach&mdash;even diluted bleach&mdash;is not always the safest option for cleaning your drains. With a high pH, bleach can be highly corrosive to many types of pipes, especially when used regularly. When mixed with household cleaners and organic waste, it can also create dangerous chemicals. Remember to use proper protective equipment and ventilation when dealing with bleach.</p></div>

Q: Will boiling water unclog a drain?

• <div><p>Boiling water helps unclog a drain, but usually only with a harder abrasive such as baking soda or vinegar. On its own, it isn&rsquo;t the most effective tool. In addition, you shouldn&rsquo;t use boiling water if you have PVC pipes, as it can soften or melt them. Use a plunger or enlist the help of a pro if you have plastic pipes.</p></div>

Q: How do you unclog a main drain without a snake?

• <div><p>If you want to avoid using a snake to unclog a drain, or if you don&rsquo;t have one, try vinegar and baking soda. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of white vinegar. Wait for 15 minutes, and then run hot water (but not boiling water) down the drain to see if the clog is clear. Repeat multiple times as needed.</p></div>

"Very professional! They have done two different jobs. The first was a problem with my sewer line backing up. They found that it was full of tree roots. The plumber worked for hours cutting through the roots. It was a long, hard job and he was determined to get it cleaned out. The second job was to clean the kitchen drain. Obviously, the previous owner dumped lots of grease down the drain. It was a lot to clean out. The cost wasn't bad considering that the tree roots ended up being a day and a half project."
