Signs You Need Professional Drain Cleaning

A slow drain might seem like a minor nuisance, but it's often the first warning sign of a much larger blockage forming deeper within your plumbing system. Putting off dealing with a sluggish drain can lead to more severe problems down the line, including complete clogs, foul odors, and even costly pipe damage or overflows. Addressing these issues promptly with professional drain cleaning can help prevent inconvenient emergencies and maintain the integrity of your home or business’s plumbing.

Here are several of the most common signs that you need to schedule professional drain cleaning: 

• Slow drains. If water is draining noticeably slower than usual in sinks, showers, or tubs, it means there's a partial blockage accumulating. This could be due to hair, grease, soap scum, or foreign objects building up over time. If left untreated, the opening for water flow will continue to shrink, eventually leading to a complete clog.
• Standing water. If water accumulates in your sink or shower basin and refuses to drain at all, you have a complete blockage. This often results from a prolonged slow drain that has finally become impassable. Standing water is unsanitary and can lead to overflows if more water is introduced.
• Gurgling noises. When you flush a toilet or drain a sink and hear gurgling sounds coming from other drains (like a shower drain gurgling when the toilet is flushed), there is likely a vent pipe blockage or a significant clog in your main drain line. These noises occur as air trapped behind the blockage tries to escape through other pathways in your plumbing system.
• Foul odors. Persistent nasty smells coming from your drains indicate a build-up of decaying organic matter, grease, or even sewage in your pipes. These smells are not just unpleasant but can also be a sign of sewer gas leaking into your home due to a blocked or improperly vented drain.
• Multiple clogged fixtures. If more than one drain in your home is clogged simultaneously (such as your kitchen sink and a bathroom tub or all drains on a lower level), it usually points to a blockage in the main sewer line. Individual clogs typically affect one fixture, but widespread issues suggest a problem with the primary drainage system shared by multiple fixtures. This is a major red flag that requires immediate professional attention to prevent sewage backups.
• Water backing up in other fixtures. This could be the result of a severe blockage in your main drain or sewer line. For example, if your toilet flushes and water backs up into your shower or bathtub, it means the wastewater cannot pass through the main line and is seeking the path of least resistance. This situation demands immediate professional intervention to prevent significant sewage overflow and property damage.
• Fruit flies or drain flies. These small insects are attracted to and breed in the organic matter that accumulates inside slow-draining or clogged pipes. Their presence is a strong indicator of a significant slime or food residue build-up within your drains that requires thorough cleaning.

How Does Professional Drain Cleaning Work?

When you suspect a clog and call our team at Swift Brothers for professional drain cleaning, we start with a thorough assessment to accurately diagnose the nature and location of the blockage. Not all clogs are the same: A simple hairball in a bathroom sink requires a different approach than a stubborn grease build-up in a kitchen line or a root intrusion in a main sewer line. Our technicians utilize advanced diagnostic tools, such as high-resolution video camera inspections, to look inside your pipes. This allows us to pinpoint the obstruction, identify any underlying pipe damage, and determine the most effective and least invasive method for clearing the blockage. 

Once we understand the problem, our plumbers employ a range of professional-grade techniques tailored to the specific clog. For common blockages like hair, soap scum, or minor grease, we may use heavy-duty drain augers or snakes. These specialized tools can break apart or retrieve obstructions, clearing the path for water flow without damaging your pipes. 

For more stubborn or widespread blockages, particularly those caused by grease, mineral build-ups, or even tree roots, we may employ hydro-jetting. This powerful method involves propelling high-pressure streams of water through your pipes, effectively scouring the interior walls, dislodging debris, and flushing it away.

Throughout the drain cleaning process, our plumbers prioritize the safety of your plumbing system and the cleanliness of your home. We take precautions to prevent water damage and messes, leaving your space as clean as we found it. After clearing the clog, we can perform post-service checks to confirm proper drainage and offer advice on preventing future blockages. Our goal is not just to clear the immediate problem but to provide a lasting solution.
