Common Causes of Sink Clogs

Different types of sinks tend to have different clogging issues.

Kitchen sinks often clog due to:

  • Grease, oils, and fats solidifying in pipes
  • Food particles, coffee grounds, and starches
  • Malfunctioning or overloaded garbage disposals

Bathroom sinks are prone to clogs from:

  • Hair and soap scum buildup
  • Toothpaste, lotions, and grooming products
  • Small objects accidentally dropped into the drain

Utility or laundry sinks may clog due to lint, detergent residue, or debris from cleaning projects.

Signs You Need Professional Help

Call Mike's Plumbing if you notice:

  • Water draining slowly or not at all
  • Bad odors coming from the drain
  • Gurgling noises in the pipes
  • Water backing up into the sink or nearby fixtures
  • Frequent clogs that keep coming back

These are signs the blockage is deeper than DIY methods can handle.

Professional Sink Drain Cleaning

At Mike's Plumbing, we use advanced tools to clear clogged sink drains safely and effectively, including:

  • Snaking – A flexible auger removes blockages near the drain opening.
  • Hydro jetting – High-pressure water jets clean pipe walls and remove stubborn buildup (see our Hydro Jetting page).
  • Camera inspections – Video tools allow us to locate hidden clogs and confirm complete cleaning.

We restore full drainage while protecting your pipes from damage.

Preventing Sink Drain Clogs

Once your sink is flowing freely, preventive steps can help avoid future issues:

  • Don’t pour grease, oil, or fats down the kitchen sink
  • Use sink strainers to catch food, hair, and debris
  • Run hot water regularly to help clear residue
  • Avoid overloading your garbage disposal
  • Schedule routine Drain Cleaning for long-term protection
