What drain cleaning covers

Kitchen sinks, bathroom sinks, tubs and showers all collect material over time — grease, soap, hair, food scraps and everyday debris. Eventually water starts to drain slowly or stops draining at all. Drain cleaning means finding where the blockage is and clearing it so water flows freely again.

When we can see what caused the clog, we’ll tell you, along with any simple habits that may help keep it from coming back.
