Common Causes of Clogged Drains
The best way to keep your drains free from clogs and blockages is to know what not to put down them. It's always safest to avoid putting anything other than water, human waste, and toilet paper down any drain, but some substances and products are more dangerous than others:
- Hair: Installing a hair trap in your tub or shower drain will save you a lot of hassle over the years. Hair tends to get stuck in drains and catch other substances that fall down, forming a clog.
- Fats, oils, and grease: Never, ever let these substances go down your drain. They are among the top causes of clogs and tend to catch anything and everything else that goes down the drain, creating a massive blockage.
- Cotton products: Cotton balls, feminine hygiene products, and anything else made with cotton should never go down the drain. Cotton swells in size when in contact with water, making it a perfect way to clog your drain.
- Tree roots: Even a tiny crack in your underground plumbing is enough space for a tree root to start forcing its way inside. Over time, the root will grow and eventually completely seal off the pipe.
- Food: Even if you have a garbage disposal, you should still avoid letting food go down your drains. It can get caught in your pipes far too easily, creating a clog.

Using the latest techniques, All Day Plumbing will clean any type of residential or commercial drain, including:

Let us help you save time, money, and headaches.
Preventative Tips for Maintaining Clear Drains
Although drain cleaning can be a tough job, there are ways to reduce the amount of build-up.
The following tips will keep your drains clear longer before service is needed:
- Place a small grate device or mesh screen over a drain to catch large debris and hair.
- Regularly lift up the pop-up stopper on drains and clear off debris.
- Brush or comb your hair before showering to remove loose hair.
- Periodically pour an industrial strength cleaner down the drain as recommended by the manufacturer.
