Why Drains Get Clogged

Understanding what causes clogs can help you prevent them in the future. Common culprits include:

• Grease and Food Waste: Cooking grease, coffee grounds, and food particles often build up in kitchen drains.

• Hair and Soap Scum: Bathroom drains commonly clog due to hair and residue from soap and shampoo.

• Foreign Objects: Small toys, paper towels, and other debris can accidentally find their way into pipes.

• Tree Roots: Roots from nearby trees can grow into sewer lines, causing major blockages.
