Components that Block Your Showers
There are so many things that can get stuck in the drains in your house and lead to a blocked sink or blocked shower drain – and if you leave it be, it’s highly unlikely that the sink or drain will unblock itself. Over a small period of time, a clogged drain can also get extremely stinky.
However, the most common cause of a clogged shower drain is stray hair. This is more likely to be a female’s hair because their hair is long and can get tangled creating hairballs, hence blocking the shower drain. When it comes to a blocked kitchen sink drain, it is highly likely that food items, or the complete waste of it, was what got stuck in it and caused the blockage.
Sometimes, tissues and other similar objects can also result in blocked shower or clogged sink drain. This also depends on the size of the pipe that they are expected to pass through because if the sink drain pipe is too thin, almost everything will get stuck in it if you’re not careful about it. Therefore, it’s recommended that you keep your drains and sinks clean by being careful about what goes in them and what the aftermath of it could be. If you have a drain that is stubbornly blocked, calling a professional drain plumber like us is your best option.
