What to Know About Professional Drain Cleaning ServicesBacked-up drains can make it almost impossible to use your sinks, shower or bathtub. This can happen when food, soap, and minerals build up inside of a drain. Generally the clog will be at its worst around the bends and turns in the pipes. Once a drain becomes clogged, you’ll need to have the entirety of the blockage removed. An old method is to create a hole in the blockage. Then, once the movement of water returns, some plumbers will leave the blockage in place. We don’t believe in this method as a clogged drain can easily become an ongoing problem for the customer. When performing drain cleaning in Carlsbad, CA, we work to remove the entire blockage so that water flow is not only restored but there is less chance of this happening again in the near future.

Kitchen sink clogs can also attract flies. Tiny fruit flies are definitely  an annoyance, but they can also become a health risk once they discover where you keep your food. If you start to notice fruit flies in your house, it’s very possible that they were attracted there by debris in a clogged drain. Another insect  that can be attracted to your home from a clogged drain is the drain fly. These flies are also known as sewer flies or filter flies.
