How to Clear Clogs Without Chemicals

Being an honest plumber, we want nothing less for a customer to have been able to clear their drains themselves without having to call us.
 
There are a lot of Do-it-yourself solutions in place of Harsh Chemicals that you can try first.  A Lot of plumbers will start with a basic Plunger. Depending on where the problem is, if you can try a plunger, you may save a call to TitanZ Plumbing & Air Conditioning for a Clogged drain. 
 
We do not recommend harsh chemicals that sold in big box stores and around the world online. These are not only hazardous to the technician that will inevitably come to service your home, homeowner, family & pets, but also the environment. Depending on the sewer piping you could make things worse in the sewer system. If you do use any of these, we recommend letting solutions rest for 15-30 minutes before trying to see if the clog is cleared.
 
Always let the Plumber know if you’ve tried any chemicals. If you or your plumber try using a Drain Auger or “snake” the chemicals they may still be lingering in the drains can splash out into your face cause vision issues, can get into your mouth poisoning you, and cause burn to whoever is trying to clear the Drain.
 
We have had customers tell us that pouring about a quarter cup of Dish soap down a toilet will unclog the toilet in about 15 minutes in some cases. Obviously, this does not work all the time, but it won’t really hurt so long as there’s a safe way to pour it down the drain or toilet. 
 
Finally, you can call your local trusted Plumbing Company and let them do what they were trained to do. Whether it’s a drain cleaning using a plunger or a Drain Auger or Drain Snake, to Hydro Jetting or getting on your roof and cleaning out the drain from the roof vent stack, We recommend Doing a Sewer camera if the company offers it to check and see what’s wrong or could have caused the clog, especially if it’s a recurring problem.
 
In General, if it’s a problem you can’t handle just give TitanZ Plumbing & Air Conditioning a call and find out your options for Further help. Call (941) 541-5508 we will come to your rescue!!
