Drain Cleaning

Whether you own a home or a business in Washington, DC, at some point in time, you're likely to find yourself faced with a clogged drain. In kitchens, greases and soaps can build up on the walls of your pipes and causes blockages. In bathrooms, showers, tubs, and sinks can become clogged with hair and soap, while toilets can be clogged with paper and debris. No matter the cause of your clogged drain, one thing's for sure: You need the help of a reliable plumber to come to the rescue. Fortunately, we offer drain cleaning services designed to tackle the toughest of clogs.

Signs Your Drain Needs To Be Cleaned 

Odds are that if you've owned your home for a few years, you've experienced drain problems. Many of these problems, like low water pressure, are caused by a build up in your drains. However, sometimes it can be hard to determine whether it is time for a good cleaning or not. Therefore, below outlines some common signs that your drain needs to be cleaned:

Benefits of Regularly Cleaning Your Drain

A drain cleaning can make all the difference in the world. Whether you need the shower drain cleaned or the kitchen drain, the first thing you will notice after your drain is cleaned is likely the water pressure. If there is debris in your drain pipes, it can block water from coming through and cause lower water pressure. This also means less wasted time, and less aggravation for you!

What Is the Best Way to Clean a Clogged Drain?

The best way to clean a clogged drain is to use professional equipment like drain augers, hydro-jetting systems, or motorized snakes, which remove debris deep within the pipes. While over-the-counter solutions may seem convenient, they often fail to fully clear the blockage and can even damage your plumbing. At Fry Plumbing, our experienced technicians assess the type and location of the clog to determine the most effective method—ensuring your drains are thoroughly cleaned and flowing freely again without risk to your pipes.

How Often Should Drains Be Professionally Cleaned?

To avoid unexpected plumbing issues, it's a good idea to have your drains professionally cleaned at least once a year—especially if your household or business has heavy usage. Regular drain maintenance can help prevent buildup of grease, soap scum, food particles, hair, and other debris that leads to clogs. In commercial kitchens or busy homes, more frequent cleanings may be necessary. Fry Plumbing offers both one-time services and recurring maintenance plans to keep your system running smoothly year-round.
