A clogged drain is not just an inconvenience, it can also be health hazard. The Licensed Plumbers at Action Air & Plumbing have the experience and tools to clear your stopped up drain quickly, and effectively.
Most stoppages can be cleared easily using a snake, however greasy kitchen lines or pipes with a lot of build up require a more complete cleaning of the drain line. Using our Hydro Jetter we can scrub your pipes clean using high pressure water and specialized nozzles.
For over 2 decades our team of plumbers has provided clogged drain cleaning in Lubbock and it’s surrounding areas. Whether it’s a bathroom shower or tub that won’t drain, or a backed up kitchen sink we have the toes and experience to clear it quickly at a price you can afford.
Our process for clearing your home or businesses clogged drain will vary slightly depending on the severity of the situation. For example, a clogged toilet may only require some plunging and old fashioned elbow grease to clear. However, a completely backed up toilet with a serious clog down the line may require the toilet to be removed so that a camera can be ran down the line to put an eye on the source of the clog. The process might change again when dealing with a bathtub or shower drain clog that is a reocurring event. Typically this is a sign of a serious clog down the drain line. Most of the time we can use a piece of equipment called a plumbing snake to remove debris that has built up in the line and is responsible for causing the slow-draining issue. For the most severely clogged drain lines we may need to utilize our hydro-jetter. This is a specialized piece of plumbing equipment built to push water through pipes at very high speeds.

Far and away, the most common causes of clogged tub & shower drains are soap scum and hair buildup. From shaving in the shower, to natural hair loss that occurs over time, hair build up is inevitable. Couple that with the use of bar soap and you’ve got the perfect clogging agent. Switching from bar soap to liquid soap is a highly recommended practice for home’s with more dated plumbing. This can reduce a major bulking agent and limit the amount of clogs that occur down the drain line.
Pro Tip: Insert a drain stopper in your home’s showers & tubs to catch hair and bar soap pieces before they find their way into your pipes.
Although we are certain that the advent of the garbage disposal initially lead to fewer clogged kitchen drain lines, we are not so certain that this is true today. Garbage disposals do a great job at breaking up food waste but they also encourage homeowners or renters to dump food waste into the sink rather than discarding of it in the trash. Solid food debris and kitchen grease that flows down your kitchen drain can clog the p-trap underneath the sink and lead to foul odors and backed up plumbing.
Pro Tip: Throw all solid food waste into the garbage and never discard of cooking fats/grease down the kitchen sink in your home.
