Do You Have a Mainline Clog?
You might be used to handling a clog in your toilet from too much toilet paper or pulling a hairball from your shower drain. When a minor clog is near your fixtures, it's usually not a big deal. Most of the time, you can handle it on your own. But when a clog hits your mainline, that's when problems start popping up all over the place.
If you think you might have a mainline clog, it's best to call us as soon as possible. We might be able to unclog your blocked drain in Lake Norman before you deal with backups or other serious issues.
Watch out for:
- Multiple areas in your home draining slowly
- Unpleasant odors coming from the drains
- More pests like drain flies, palmetto bugs, or rodents
- Bubbling noises in the drains when you run water
So What’s Causing That Drain to Clog?
Hair
Think about all the activities 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 fallen hair end up? Right in your drain. Over time, those tiny strands build up, mixing with soap residue to form a blockage that's tough to handle on your own.
Soap Scum
It's kinda ironic that something meant to clean can cause blockages, but it's true. Soap, especially bar soap, can leave a filmy layer as it mixes with the minerals in your water. This sticky buildup clogs your pipes, making it hard for water to flow.
Grease
In the kitchen, oil is often the thing causing problems. 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 drains have probably seen it all. Sometimes, it's just life happening, but these random items can get stuck and cause a blockage. It's a reminder to watch what goes down the drain (or what your kids might sneak into it!).
Acting Fast Can Limit the Damage!
It's easy to look at clogged drains in Lake Norman and feel annoyed with water just sitting there. The longer it sits, the worse it's gonna smell (ew) and the more irritating it's gonna get (ugh). But what we might not realize is the damage a blocked drain can cause if left alone.
Stagnant 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 bigger problem.
The longer you wait, the worse the issue can get—not just for your drains, but for your whole plumbing system. Acting quickly means you can avoid costly repairs and prevent further damage.
Whether it's clearing a minor blockage or tackling a stubborn clog, dealing with it now can save you a lot of trouble later.
Unclogging Your Drains the Safe Way
Some folks might feel a bit awkward about blocked drains and try to clear them themselves, but many drain products can lead to even larger issues. For instance, liquid drain cleaners can corrode pipes and aren't much help with mainline blockages. They often sit against the obstruction, damaging pipes rather than unclogging them.
The safest DIY approach is a plunger. Sink and toilet plungers can tackle everyday food, hair, and waste blockages without damaging your pipes or fixtures. If the blockage seems minor and localized, give a plunger a shot. If that doesn't fix the issue, it's time to give us a ring.
Don't be hesitant—we've seen every kind of blocked drain in Lake Norman and can help get things flowing smoothly again.
