Clogged Bathtub Drains And How To Clear Them.

The most common cause of clogged bathtub drains is hair. When you bathe or shower, your hair has nowhere to go but down the drain. When it slithers down the drain, it can get stuck to the drain basket, or sides of the piping, building up over time and attaching to other materials—like dead skin, or soap scum—that went down the pipes. This prevents proper drainage.

My Go To Tool

In most cases, unclogging your bathtub drain is straightforward, especially if the clog is near the top of the pipe or in the drain basket, where 80% of clogs begin.

The ZIP-IT Tool is the first thing I attempt when I’m unclogging a tub drain.  It’s available at most stores that have a DIY section.  It’s readily available, easy to use and will allow you to save money by not calling a professional.

If the above solution didn’t work for you then it’s time to call a professional! Our trained plumbing technicians can help. Give us a call at 580-740-3393!
