Signs of a clogged drain include water draining slowly in your sink or tub, water backing up into your sink or tub upon flushing the toilet, excessive gurgling in your pipes, and foul odors in or around your drains. If any of these signs apply to you, schedule a prompt drain clearing service with Green Leaf Plumbing, AC and Heating right away!

You should call Green Leaf Plumbing, AC and Heating if your water is draining slowly, backing up into your sink or tub after flushing the toilet, you hear excessive gurgling in your pipes, or you notice a foul odor around your drains. If you choose to ignore these signs, sewage could potentially spill into your home, leading to a nasty cleanup and costly repairs.

In most cases, homeowners only need to have their drains professionally cleared as needed. However, if your home is older or has a history of clogs, you may want to consider a more regular drain clearing schedule. Call (737) 252-1453 to speak directly to one of our drain experts about your plumbing or main line system and determine an accurate maintenance schedule for your drains!

While you can attempt to rid of clogs on your own, it is highly recommended to lean on our certified professionals at Green Leaf Plumbing, AC and Heating instead. Commercial drain cleaners from the store can irritate skin and eyes and even damage your pipes. Additionally, most DIY drain cleaners can only be used in sinks or tubs – not in toilets. If you decide to get rid of any clogs yourself, it will most likely only be a temporary solution. Professional drain clearing services will get rid of any clogs for good. 

Some simple ways to prevent clogs in you drains include; purchasing and using drain covers to catch hair, avoid pouring fats, oils, and grease down your garbage disposal, and scheduling routine drain cleaning services.
