All drains clog up from time to time. Whether it be hair, soap scum, or other debris, we all experience drain clogs in our house at some point in our lives. It's good to know how and when you can unclog a drain so that you don't have to deal with the inconvenience of having your sink or bathtub not draining correctly.

Tips for dealing with a drain cleaning problem in Syracuse:

1. Unplug the drain. Sometimes there's just something, like hair or a toy, right at the opening of the drain. If you can see it, try to pull it out, and hopefully, the problem is fixed.
2. A plunger is a go-to DIY for clogs. Use a plunger to create suction and remove any substance that may be clogging up the pipes. 
3. You can buy drain cleaner chemicals. Make sure to follow instructions. However, we found that you can use some simple items found in the home. For example, you can pour some baking soda down the drain, followed by vinegar. Allow mixture to sit for 10-15 minutes before pouring boiling water down it. Please be careful.

If these solutions don't help with the clog, call a professional drain cleaner. It's been our experience that the problem won't go away. In fact, it will only quickly get worse. No one wants a clog to back up water and flood sewage into their property either.
