What’s Slowing Your Drains Down?
Drain issues usually start small—water drains a little slower, there’s a faint odor, or your sink gurgles after use. But over time, these symptoms can point to serious buildup or blockages that need professional attention. Our team identifies the cause quickly and clears it out safely, without damaging your pipes or leaving a mess behind.
Here are some of the most common reasons customers call Your Home Plumber for drain cleaning:
- Hair buildup – A top cause of slow shower and tub drains—especially in busy households.
- Grease and food debris – Even with a garbage disposal, buildup in kitchen sinks can block water flow over time.
- Soap and mineral deposits – Hard water and soap residue can form thick layers inside your pipes, reducing space for water to move.
- Flushable wipes and hygiene products – Despite the label, these products often clog pipes, especially in older plumbing systems.
- Tree root intrusion – In some cases, roots can grow into underground pipes, causing recurring blockages and backups.

Matt from Your Home Plumber was excellent! I had a new bathroom faucet installed, and last minute, unclogged my shower drain. He went above and beyond because the faucet was stuck, old, and stubborn! Thanks Matt!Stephenie A.

Eric responded to my call very quickly and was able to stop by the same day to check on very loud noise when the toilet filled with water. He diagnosed the problem, explained exactly what was happening with the valve!Cynthia K.

How We Clear Tough Clogs
Every clog is different, so we never take a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether it's a shallow blockage in the bathroom sink or a deeper issue in the main sewer line, we use proven methods to clear the issue and check for underlying causes, so you don’t have to keep calling us back.
Some of our methods of addressing clogged drains include:
- Drain snakes (manual and motorized) – Ideal for removing hair, soap scum, and small obstructions in sinks, tubs, and showers.
- Augers – Stronger and more flexible than standard snakes, perfect for clearing tougher toilet clogs and deeper backups.
- Video camera inspections – Helpful for locating clogs and assessing buildup without unnecessary digging or guesswork.
- Enzyme-based or mechanical cleanouts – Safe options for maintaining drains and breaking down organic material in kitchens and bathrooms.
- Hydro jetting – A high-pressure water method used only when necessary, typically for deep, stubborn blockages or severe buildup in main sewer lines.
We always start with the least invasive option and work our way up as needed. If hydro jetting is the best solution, we’ll explain why and walk you through how it works before we do anything.
