How it works
Locate the blockage
We run water to gauge how far back the clog is and choose between a manual snake, zip tool, or P-trap removal based on what we find.
Clear the clog
We work through the drain opening or the P-trap to break up and pull out the obstruction — hair, grease, soap buildup, or a combination.
Flush and verify
We run hot water for several minutes to confirm the drain is fully clear before reassembling any removed parts.
Problems we fix
- Hair and soap buildup in bathroom sink and tub drains — the most common cause of slow drains
- Grease and food debris partially blocking kitchen sink drains
- Drain stopper mechanism clogged with residue and unable to open fully
- Recurring clogs that weren't fully cleared on the first attempt
- Multiple slow drains in one bathroom pointing to a shared line issue
Drain Unclogging in Columbia — FAQ
Should I use Drano before calling?
Chemical drain cleaners can soften or corrode older pipes and don't always dissolve hair clogs completely. Calling a pro first usually resolves the problem faster without added risk to your plumbing.
What if the clog is deeper in the main line?
For clogs past what a standard snake reaches, a more specialized drain service is needed. We'll let you know clearly when that's the case so you can get the right help.
How can I prevent my drains from clogging again?
Drain screens catch most hair and debris before they enter the pipe. Running hot water for 30 seconds after every use and doing a monthly baking-soda-and-vinegar flush keeps grease from building up.
Drain Unclogging across Columbia
Columbia's long, hot, humid summers are hard on homes — HVAC strain, swollen doors, deck and fence wear, and moisture around windows and caulk are all common. Older in-town neighborhoods bring hardwood floors, plaster and original millwork, while the Northeast and the Lake Murray side add newer builds with their own needs. Our pros are comfortable with both.
