When you experience a clogged drain, it can be frustrating and disruptive to your day. Ignoring a clog can lead to more severe plumbing issues, including water damage and system backups. At Olson Superior, we understand the importance of taking swift action to clear clogs and keep your plumbing system functioning properly. Our fast and effective drain unclogging services are designed to restore your peace of mind and keep your home running smoothly.
Common Causes of Drain Clogs
Drains can become clogged for a variety of reasons, often involving the gradual buildup of common household materials. Some of the most frequent culprits include:
- Grease: Pouring cooking oil or grease down the sink can cause it to solidify inside your pipes, eventually leading to a clog that blocks the flow of water.
- Hair: Hair that goes down bathroom drains can accumulate and bind with other substances, creating a dense clog that restricts water flow.
- Food Particles: Food scraps that are washed down the kitchen sink, especially those that are hard or fibrous, can build up and cause clogs.
- Soap Buildup: The residue from soap can combine with minerals in the water, creating scum that narrows the inside of pipes over time.
- Foreign Objects: Small objects, such as jewelry, sanitary products, and toys, can accidentally enter drains, leading to blockages.
Addressing these issues quickly can help prevent more extensive problems that could result in costly repairs.
Our Drain Unclogging Services
At Olson Superior, we provide professional drain unclogging services that cater to various types of blockages, regardless of their severity. We use two key methods to unclog drains effectively:
- Mechanical Snaking: For many clogs, mechanical snaking is a highly effective solution. We use specialized drain snakes to break up and remove obstructions caused by hair, soap scum, and other materials. This method is safe and efficient for most household clogs.
- Hydro Jetting: For more severe or stubborn clogs, we use hydro jetting, a method that involves sending a high-pressure stream of water through the pipes to dislodge and clear the blockage. This approach not only clears the current clog but also removes buildup, ensuring that your pipes are clean and less likely to become clogged in the future.
Our unclogging services are designed with both safety and effectiveness in mind, ensuring that your pipes are cleared without causing any damage.
Signs You Need Drain Unclogging
Recognizing the early signs of a clogged drain can help you address the issue before it escalates. Here are some warning signs that indicate it’s time to call Olson Superior:
- Water Backing Up: If water is backing up into sinks, tubs, or toilets, it is a clear sign that there is a blockage somewhere in the drain line.
- Slow Draining: When water takes longer than usual to drain away, it often means there is a partial blockage that needs to be addressed.
- Strange Noises: Gurgling or bubbling sounds coming from your drains can indicate trapped air caused by a clog somewhere in the system.
If you notice any of these issues, it’s important to act quickly. The longer a clog is left unaddressed, the more serious it can become.

- Use Drain Guards: Install drain guards or strainers in your sinks, showers, and tubs to catch hair, food scraps, and other debris before they enter your pipes.
- Dispose of Grease Properly: Never pour grease or cooking oil down the drain. Instead, let it cool and throw it away in the trash.
- Watch What You Flush: Only flush toilet paper and waste down the toilet. Avoid flushing sanitary products, wipes, or other non-flushable items.
