Do You Have a Mainline Clog?

Unless you’ve got a drain camera, you probably don’t know exactly what’s going on in your drains. And you may like it that way. Thinking about what’s hiding away in the u-bend can make you lose your appetite. But you’re gonna have to think about it if you start to have problems with your drains.

If you think you might have a mainline clog, you should call us ASAP. We can help unclog your blocked drain in Harrisburg before you face backups or other major issues. Here are some signs to watch for:

  • Several areas in your home draining slowly
  • Unpleasant smells coming from the drains
  • An increase in pests like drain flies, palmetto bugs, or rodents
  • Gurgling noises in the drains when you run water

So What’s Causing That Drain to Clog?

Hair

Think about what happens around your drains; if it's your shower, you're washing your hair. If it's your bathroom sink, you might be brushing your hair or shaving. And where does all that hair end up? Right in your drain. Over time, those little strands build up, mixing with soap residue to form a blockage. It's one of the most common reasons for clogged drains—and one of the toughest to fix on your own.

Soap Scum

It might seem weird that something meant to clean can cause blockages, but it's true. Soap, especially bar soap, can leave a slimy layer as it mixes with minerals in your water. Over time, this sticky buildup clogs your pipes, reducing space for water to flow.

Grease

In the kitchen, grease is usually the problem. Even if you wash it down with hot water, it cools and hardens as it moves through the pipes, sticking to the sides and trapping food debris. Eventually, this forms a stubborn clog that can stop water flow completely.

Foreign Objects

From toothpaste caps and food scraps to tiny toys—your drain pipes have probably seen it all. These unexpected items can get stuck and cause a blockage. It's a reminder to be careful about what goes down the drain (or what your little ones might drop in it!).

Acting Fast Can Limit the Damage!

It's easy to look at clogged drains in Harrisburg and get annoyed by the standing water. The longer it sits, the more it's gonna start to smell (yuck) and the more annoying it gets (ugh). But what we might not think about is the damage a blocked drain can cause if ignored.

Standing water can lead to bacteria growth, bad smells, and even damage your pipes over time. Plus, the pressure from a blockage can cause leaks or cracks, turning a simple clog into a much bigger issue. The longer you wait, the worse it can get—not just for your drains, but for your entire plumbing system.

Acting fast means you can avoid expensive repairs and prevent further damage. Whether it's clearing a small blockage or dealing with a tough clog, taking care of it now can save you a lot of trouble later.

Unclogging Your Drains the Safe Way

Drain clearing liquids and snakes that you can pick up at the store don’t fix most clogs. They might push them further down the pipes, and the corrosive chemicals aren’t great for most piping materials. Plus, those chemicals can be dangerous for people and pets, too. They can cause burns and irritation if they’re not used right.

The techniques we use are gentle for your pipes and they’re safe for your family and pets. When you call us, we’ll work with you to figure out which is right for you. A lot of normal clogs can be taken care of with our drain cabling services. We’ve got flat-rate prices and we’ll get it done the same day you call. This service is free for Priority Advantage® Members, so be sure to check it out if you aren’t already a member!

If you’ve got a grease clog, or you’ve got pipes that seem like they’re smelly no matter how many clogs you get rid of, we can get out the gunk with our hydro jetting services. We’ll use high-pressure water to clean out everything that’s clinging to your pipes.

Here’s the bottom line: if you can’t get the clog out in a couple of minutes with a plunger, then it’s time to call a plumber instead of reaching for the liquid clog removers.
