Drain Cleaning in Gilbert: What to Know
Grease, wipes and hard-water scale cause most clogs; in older streets, roots in clay sewer pipe do too. If more than one drain is slow, the problem is likely the main line.
- Builder-grade fixtures from the 2000s are commonly due for replacement.
Common causes of clogs
Grease, wipes, hair and soap scum cause most household clogs. In older Phoenix neighborhoods, tree roots and sagging clay or Orangeburg sewer pipe are frequent culprits for main-line backups. Hard water scale also narrows drain lines over time.
When it's a main-line problem
If more than one fixture is slow, or water comes up in the tub when you flush, the clog is likely in the main sewer line. Stop running water and call — continued use can push sewage into the home.
