This is a good example of why drain cleaning products are not a good solution for long term use of cleaning clogs from your pipes. If you have a slow moving drain, it’s clogged – it’s that simple. You’ll need to remove the blockage properly with a  snaking device or water jet. Chasles Plumbing is equipped with both tools to better serve our customers.

The reality is that drain chemicals often sit in pipes for a while before they break down clogs. Often they don’t clear clogs completely and the drain cleaners simply begin to eat through the metallic pipes over time.

Pictured here is a bathtub drainage pipe that was hidden behind the ceiling drywall. Years ago, our client could not fix the leaking pipe so they lost the use of the bathtub.

If you have a slow moving drain, call Chasles Plumbing Professionals before your problems get worse.
