"I called Winners Sewer & Drain to clear two clogged bathroom sinks in our tenant's apartment. Jesse called and explained their services and the cost. Jesse coordinated with my tenant to complete the job. After the job was complete, Jesse followed up with pictures of the material that was causing the clog. Very professional, punctual and honest company. I will definitely call them back for any sewer and drain clogs."

"We had a sewer line backup caused by tree roots growing into the pipe. He arrived on time, explained the issue clearly, and worked thoroughly to remove the roots and restore proper flow. Everything has been draining perfectly since the service. Professional, honest, reasonably priced, and easy to work with. I appreciated that he took the time to explain what caused the problem and answered all of my questions. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing plumbing work."

"The servicemen from L&P Plumbing and Heating arrived 10 minutes prior to the scheduled time. They were courteous and helpful. They explained what they were going to do and worked quickly and efficiently. They snaked over twenty feet into the drain to clear the cement that lodged in the drain when our steps were renovated. The call was an urgent one as severe rain was expected and we had already experienced flooding in our laundry room once. L & P restored my piece of mind and I am grateful!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Start by unscrewing the overflow valve, which is located on the wall of your tub between the floor drain and the tub spout. Gently insert a plumbing snake down into the pipe, move it back and forth, and pull it out. Remove any hair, debris, and soap scum that comes out with it. Repeat the process until the snake comes out clean, and then reinstall the cap on your overflow valve.

A two-way cleanout can help if there’s already a clog, but the best strategy to prevent one is by not rinsing grease, oil, or fat down your drains, not flushing or rinsing coffee grounds or egg shells down your drains, flushing only human waste and toilet paper (so no diapers, period products, bathroom wipes, or paper towels), and using drain guards on all of your drains.

When you put baking soda and vinegar down the drain, they chemically react and help break down clogs. It’s not going to work for every type of clog, however. For example, it’s not the best way to get rid of grease buildup. For grease, you should try boiling water and white vinegar instead.

If the drain is frozen, the pipes connecting to the washing machine are likely frozen. If the hot water trick doesn’t also unfreeze the washing machine pipes, you can gently apply heat with a hair dryer on the lowest setting. Start at the end of the pipe closest to the faucet to prevent pressure from building in the pipes, and make sure the faucet is open to drain the water as it melts.

Sometimes, the drain is just too clogged—thanks, stubborn hair and soap scum. In this case, you’ll need a more powerful drain cleaner than you can DIY safely at home. But this doesn’t mean you have to choose a traditional drain cleaner. 

You can find biodegradable drain cleaners at your local home improvement store or online for those drains that need a little more oomph

While on the hunt for a formidable drain cleaner, the best options are non-chemical clog solutions that combine enzymes and bacteria.
