Expert Drain Clog Cleaning Techniques Used by Austen Plumbing

The professional plumbers at Austen Plumbing Company will assess your situation carefully before performing any services to treat a drain clog. We have many drain clog clearing approaches that we can take, and careful planning ensures that we take the right approach to safely remove the clog and resolve issues completely.

Here are some of the common techniques we use to unblock pipes and clear clogged drains.

• Plunging: Plunging is a classic remedy used to unclog drains. This drain clearing technique involves using a plunger to force clogs and blockages out of drain pipes, allowing them to flow freely. Plunging is a fairly simple process that can be completed by homeowners or our professional plumbers.
• Low-Impact Drain Cleaning: This technique is simple, effective, and affordable. It is ideal to remove debris that is causing minor clogs and slow moving drains, and can be performed by our professionals and even homeowners. Low impact drain cleaning involves sprinkling one cup of baking soda down the drain clog. After this, one cup of heated vinegar should be poured down the drain. After about five minutes, the pipe should be flushed with hot water. This process may need to be repeated several times before the drain clog is completely removed.
• Chemical Drain Cleaning: Another way that our plumbers can clear clogs is to use specially formulated solutions that provide thorough and quick-action cleaning for clogged drains. However, a major downside to this is that these chemical solutions can be harsh or toxic if they come into contact with your skin. These chemicals may also be harmful for your pipes. Therefore, it is best to let our professional plumbers at Austen Plumbing handle your drain clog cleaning when it comes to chemical solutions.
• Drain Snakes and Hangers: Not all clogged debris can be easily dislodged with the help of cleaning solutions and plunging. Some of the tougher clogs require thorough scraping and clearing using metal hangers or snakes that can be pushed deep down into the drain. This process should usually be performed by professionals who have experience snaking drain clogs.

While you can complete many of these drain clog clearing methods yourself, in the case of stubborn clogs, your attempts may be unsuccessful. If you find yourself with stubborn clogs, it is best to call the professionals.
