Drain Cleaning & Clog Removal
Professional Drain Cleaning Services
Clogged drains can be more than just a nuisance—they can lead to slow drainage, foul odors, water damage, and even plumbing emergencies. At Dor-Mar, we offer expert drain cleaning and clog removal services to restore proper water flow and prevent future plumbing problems. Our licensed plumbers use advanced techniques to clear even the toughest blockages safely and effectively.
Common Causes of Drain Clogs
Drains can become clogged for many reasons. Here are some of the most common culprits:
1. Hair Buildup
Hair accumulates in shower and bathroom sink drains, creating blockages that restrict water flow.
2. Grease & Food Particles
Kitchen sink drains often become clogged with grease, oils, and food debris that solidify over time.
3. Soap Scum & Mineral Deposits
Hard water minerals and soap residue can create thick buildup in pipes, leading to restricted water flow.
4. Tree Roots
Tree roots naturally seek moisture and can invade sewer lines, causing severe blockages and pipe damage.
5. Flushed Non-Flushable Items
Flushing wipes, paper towels, feminine hygiene products, and other non-biodegradable items can clog toilets and main drain lines.

Frequently Asked Questions About Drain Cleaning
How often should I have my drains professionally cleaned?
We recommend having your drains professionally cleaned at least once a year to prevent buildup and keep your plumbing system in top shape. Homes with frequent clogs or older plumbing may require more frequent service.
Can I use chemical drain cleaners to unclog my pipes?
While store-bought drain cleaners may provide a temporary fix, they often contain harsh chemicals that can corrode your pipes over time. Professional drain cleaning is a safer and more effective long-term solution.
What is hydro-jetting, and when is it necessary?
Hydro-jetting is a high-pressure water cleaning method used to clear stubborn blockages, grease buildup, and tree root intrusions. It’s ideal for deep, persistent clogs or when standard drain snaking isn’t enough.
How can I prevent clogged drains?
To keep your drains clear, follow these tips:
- Use drain strainers to catch hair and debris.
- Avoid pouring grease or oil down the drain.
- Flush drains with hot water regularly.
- Schedule professional drain cleaning annually for maintenance.
What should I do if my drain is completely blocked?
If a drain is completely blocked and home remedies don’t work, avoid using excessive force or chemical cleaners. Call our team for professional drain cleaning services to safely remove the clog without damaging your pipes.
