Most homeowners don’t notice minor plumbing issues until they turn into a major problem. Something as simple as clogged drains can cause stress, mess, and wear and tear on your home if left unattended. Knowing signs to look for when dealing with clogged drains is important for any home owner. At A&R, we have compiled an easy list to help you keep an eye out on these subtle hints from your drain.
Standing Water
Standing water is the most common sign of clogged sinks or showers. If you noticed standing water in your sink or shower, there is a blockage down in the pipes. If the problem persists, we recommend our plumbing for a guaranteed quick service.
Unpleasant Smell
It’s not the week-old lasagna you just tossed down the drain, the lingering aroma is more than likely a blockage in your drain. With a strong, lingering odor, professional plumbing services will be needed to remedy this issue.
Slow Drain
When it comes to your plumbing, slow and steady does not win the race. Having slow drains can cause an overflow in your home. With water damage repairs weighing heavy on price, immediate repair is critical.
Overflowing Toilet
If your toilet is constantly overflowing, you may have a severe drain issue that could potentially put your home at risk.
Gurgling Sounds
If you hear gurgling noises while your sink or shower is draining, it is a clear sign of a clogged or blocked drain.
