- Recurring clogs in the same drain, even after using store-bought tools
- Bubbling or gurgling sounds after flushing or running water

What Happens If You Ignore a Clogged Drain?
We get it, a slow drain doesn’t always feel like an emergency. But here’s what can happen if it’s ignored too long:
Water damage
If water backs up into cabinets, walls, or floors, you could be dealing with mold, rot, or expensive repairs.
Pipe damage
Pressure builds when drains don’t flow. That can cause pipes to crack or burst, especially in older homes.
Sewer backup risk
One clog can affect your whole plumbing system. In worst-case scenarios, untreated drains can trigger a backup from the main line.
Higher utility bills
If you’re running water longer to force it down or having to repeat cleaning efforts, you’re wasting water and energy.
Stained fixtures and smells
Standing water can stain your sinks and tubs, and the smell only gets worse over time.
If you’ve been living with a slow or smelly drain, it’s an annoying problem waiting to grow. We’ll solve it before it spirals.
If we can’t fix it, you don’t pay

Colebee from Running Water Plumbing installed a gas line and also fixed a broken exterior faucet at my home. He showed up right on time and worked quickly and efficiently. Without me even asking, he helped remove my old oven and install the new one, which I really appreciated. The quality of work was solid and the whole process was smooth. I highly recommend Running Water for any plumbing needs. Thanks again.

Colebee was on time and very professional. He wasn’t satisfied with the quality of some of the previous parts so he replaced them at a fair price to ensure no further issues with my toilet repair. Highly recommend for any of your plumbing issues.

Colebee and Brody were professional and awesome. He help me add a loop for the water softener in my basement and did the plumbing for my kitchen remodel. They will clean up the site really well and I am happy with the experience.

Drain Cleaning FAQs
What’s the most common cause of clogs?
In residential homes, the most common culprits are hair, grease, and soap scum. These materials tend to accumulate over time, narrowing the pipes and eventually causing blockages.
Do you use chemical cleaners?
No. We rely on mechanical methods and high-pressure water-based cleaning (such as hydro jetting) to safely and effectively remove buildup without damaging your pipes or harming the environment.
How often should drains be cleaned?
For most households, a professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years helps prevent serious clogs and keeps everything flowing smoothly. If you have frequent backups or an older plumbing system, more frequent service may be recommended.
Can I prevent future clogs?
Absolutely. We’ll walk you through simple habits—like what not to put down your drains—and offer ongoing maintenance tips to reduce buildup and extend the life of your plumbing system.
