The occasional clogged drain can usually be taken care of with a little elbow grease and some tried-and-true home remedies, but oftentimes clogged or slow drains can indicate more serious plumbing problems that require the skills of a professional. Otherwise, you might be temporarily treating the symptoms without solving the underlying issue. All Star Rooter, Sewer and Drain Cleaning, serving New Haven and Fairfield Counties in CT, recommends calling in a drain-cleaning specialist if you notice the following signs:

  • Slow Drains. A variety of problems can cause slow drains, ranging from minor issues to serious buildup deeper in your pipes. Only an experienced plumber with a sewer camera can truly tell the difference.
  • Frequent Clogs. Drains that back up occasionally are one thing, but recurring clogs are usually a sign of something more serious. Blockages further down the pipes are difficult to remove on your own, but a professional drain cleaner can help.
  • Multiple Issues. If your shower, tub, and sink are all clogging at the same time, you very likely have a major blockage deeper in your pipes you probably can't take care of on your own.
  • Sewage Odors. Foul scents coming from your drains are almost always a sign of serious problems that need to be taken care of as soon as possible. Depending on the nature of the problem, a thorough drain cleaning may take care of it, but you could also be dealing with broken sewer pipes that need to be replaced.
