How do you recognize a sewer clog?

Sewer clogs can manifest themselves in a variety of ways. The sooner you recognize the signs, the sooner you can prevent the problem from getting worse. Some of the signs you can recognize a sewer clog by are:

  • Slow flowing water

If you notice the water in your sink, shower or toilet draining slowly, it is often a sign of an incipient clog.

  • Sounds from the drain

Bubbling or gurgling sounds from your drain may indicate a buildup of debris in the pipes.

  • Recurring blockages

If you notice that the same drain is constantly clogging, it is a sign that there is a structural problem somewhere in the sewer system.

  • Sewer smell in house

An unpleasant smell coming from your drains may indicate a blockage caused by stuck dirt in the sewer system.

It is important to recognize and address a sewer blockage as soon as possible to prevent further damage and inconvenience. When in doubt, it is wise to seek professional help, such as experienced plumbers from RBNL, who can help you identify the problem through sewer inspection and unclog your sewer line. Call our broadly trained and equipped plumbers for sewer unclogging Amsterdam.

Causes of a clogged sewer

A clogged sewer can have a variety of causes. Some common causes include:

Accidental flushing of objects

People sometimes flush things down the toilet that don't belong there, such as wet wipes, sanitary napkins or cotton wool. This leads to blockages and blockages.

Excessive use of toilet paper

When you flush large amounts of toilet paper at once or thick toilet paper (such as three- or four-ply paper), it can cause a blockage in the drain.

Improper use of drains

Large amounts of food waste and grease residue are flushed down the drain every day. This is obviously not what the sewer is for, and this can result in clogged drains.

Problems with sewer pipes

This could include shifted or broken sewer pipes due to tree roots or ground subsidence.

Unclog yourself? Try our tips

Want to unclog your sewer in Amsterdam yourself? Chances are the clog is too deep and you need an experienced plumber, but for minor blockages, there are a few steps you can take to unclog your sewer yourself:

Unclog sewers with hot water and baking soda

For small or incipient clogs, you can flush a mixture of hot water and baking soda down the drain. Baking soda, a natural cleaning agent, has the ability to loosen and dissolve caked-on residue on the inside of the drain. This can help prevent an emerging clog and restore flow.

Unclogging sewers with vinegar

You can also try pouring a mixture of baking soda and vinegar slowly (because the mixture fizzes) down the drain to clear the sewer of lime residue in this way. Water contains lime particles and these remain in the sewer and accumulate over time. You can prevent this by using vinegar regularly.

Unscrewing and cleaning the siphon

Some surface blockages are right behind the siphon. You can attempt sewer unclogging Amsterdam by unscrewing the siphon at the drain where the water is not draining or is having difficulty draining and cleaning it with water and baking soda. Then reconnect the siphon to the drain and see if the clog is resolved.

Be careful with materials

Some superficial clogs can be solved using materials such as a plopper and a pull spring. However, if used incorrectly, you can also worsen the clog or even puncture the pipe. Therefore, be very careful when using these materials or seek the help of a sewer specialist immediately.
