Why Does My Drain Keep Clogging?
You clear the sink, the water drains, and everything seems normal. A few days later, you are waiting for the same basin to empty again.
A drain that keeps clogging may have grease, food, hair, or soap buildup left inside the pipe, a blockage farther down the line, or a continuing source of debris. Clearing enough space for water to pass does not always remove the whole obstruction. One slow drain may point to a local problem, while several affected fixtures can suggest a shared drain issue. Recurring clogs, backups, or trouble in multiple drains are reasons to have a plumber assess the cause.
