Clogged Drain Services In Toronto

A clogged toilet is commonly caused by (but not limited to) something being stuck inside the trap way of the toilet — such as toiletry caps, feminine hygiene products, paper towels, toothbrushes, etc. The indicators below will determine if your toilet is clogged:

• Toilet water rises and overflows
• Toilet doesn't flush or flushes slow
• Toilet bubbles or gurgles when flushed

These situations require you to get drain services in Toronto as quickly as you can.

It can be challenging to determine when you can fix something yourself or whether you need an expert to step in and assist. Of course, when you have a flood or pipe bursts, you know what to do. However, what about the more subtle concerns — such as wet spots or low water pressure?

There are some plumbing rules of thumb that we recommend getting a professional in to assess. These may seem like minor issues — however, they can lead to an emergency if they aren't addressed in a timely manner.

• Low water pressure: if the water pressure in your shower or faucets has been reduced due to a buildup of mineral deposits, this may require assistance from a professional. Try cleaning the showerhead and faucet aerator with white vinegar to achieve an even flow of water. If this does not fix the problem, there may be something more serious going on with your pipes. It's best to book a plumber right away to get this looked at.
• Slow draining: If your tub or sink suddenly starts draining slowly, do NOT go and buy a drain cleaner from the store. These products contain harsh, corrosive chemicals that will damage your pipes. For plumbers, these products are frustrating and do much more harm than good. Flush the drain with hot water and use a plunger to try to dislodge the clog. If you don't see an improvement, call San-Del Plumbing to address the situation.
• Frozen pipes: With cold Canadian climates, this may happen more frequently than we would like to admit. If it's freezing outside and you have no running water, your pipes may be frozen. Immediately call a plumber to assist in this situation. Attempting to thaw the pipes yourself may cause drain pipes to split or water pipes to burst.
