When you see a clogged shower/bathtub lots for thoughts may go through your head. First, you might think “time to call a plumber”. And then you’re done but…..

Clogged Bathtub

There might be a ton more thoughts going through your head. When I personally encounter a clogged shower or bathtub drain I first think gross and that it’s typically smelly. But, now it’s time to face this gross task. As a drain technician I grab all my tools and put down my drop clothes and go to work. Sometimes working on unclogging a bathtub or shower may be harder then unclogged your kitchen sink or main sewer line with tree roots growing into your pipes walls.

Bathtubs are hands down gross. It’s all hair, soap scrum and hardened whatever is down the drain. Trying to unclog a bathtub drain may also cause a leak. Bathtub drain lines are weaker then other pipes. Leave this work to the pros that clean, clear, unclog, unplug and open up blocked drain lines each and every day. Face it, sometimes it just makes to hire the professionals.

Next time your shower or bathtub drain line clogs up call Hiawatha Plumbing and schedule your appointment today.

We look forward to working with you!
