Five habits that keep your drains clear

You don't need harsh chemicals to keep drains moving. Start with these habits.

Keep grease out of the sink

Pour cooled grease into a jar and throw it out. Hot water only moves it further down the pipe.

Use drain screens

A cheap screen in the shower catches the hair that causes most bathroom clogs.

Only flush toilet paper

Wipes labeled flushable don't break down. They are the top cause of main line backups we see.

Run hot water after use

A short run of hot water after washing up helps carry soap scum away.

When to call us

If more than one drain is slow at once, or you hear gurgling, the problem is likely in the main line. That needs a pro.
