Kitchen Drain Snaking for a Blocked Sink

While a plunger might quickly resolve simple blockages in about 10 minutes, a drain snake requires a more detailed approach, typically taking between 20 to 30 minutes. This process usually involves removing the kitchen drain or the P-trap under the sink. Once you have access, the snake is inserted into the drain, firmly pushed through, navigating bends and breaking up clogs. The snake’s corkscrew end is adept at grabbing and pulling out obstructions.

However, Anta Plumbing’s master plumbers utilize a specialized kitchen snake that bypasses the need to remove the P-trap. This sophisticated tool efficiently works through your kitchen drain, offering more thorough and lasting results.

Drain Snaking to Unclog Pipes

A drain snake, also known as a plumbing snake or drain auger, is a lengthy cable designed for unclogging drains. Suitable for both home and commercial applications, plumbing snakes come in various types, along with a range of bits that can be attached to the snake cable for different tasks. Our technicians at Anta Plumbing undergo comprehensive training to proficiently use the most appropriate bits and cables for each specific application and situation.

At Anta Plumbing, we deploy large, motor-powered snakes equipped with cables of varying sizes to tackle different types of blockages. These powerful machines require careful handling and respect due to their potential danger. Therefore, they are always operated by our trained professionals, ensuring safe and effective use in every circumstance.

Drain Cleaning & Maintenance Tips

Run hot water down your drain for about 30 seconds once a week to help clear the drain before any blockagecan build up.
In bathroom sink or tub drains, be sure to block/cover the overflow opening before you try plunging.
Keep the garbage disposal under your kitchen sink clean by not using it as a trash can. Don’t put potato skins, meat bones or broken glass down the garbage disposal.
Commercialdrain cleaners are caustic—they often contain lye, which can burn your skin or eyes. They are best avoided, but if you decide to use one, never try to plunge a drain afterward.
Some commercial products use compressed air to force blockages out of drainpipes. A blast of compressed air could damage your pipes, so it’s best to avoid these.

Cleanout

A blocked drain pipe often becomes a costly and destructive problem for building owners. Partially blocked pipes cause sinks, basins, toilets and tubs to drain slowly. Totally blocked pipes usually result in sewage backing up through floor drains or fixtures, often causing property damage and health hazards. “Cleanouts” of an approved design and size must be strategically located throughout the drainage system to make clearing blockages easier.

Anta Plumbing not only clears blocked drains but also installs cleanouts to help prevent frequent drain blockages.

Hydro Jetting

Residential and Commercial Drain Cleaning

Hydro jetting is a process that uses high-speed / high-pressure water to clear blockages in pipe systems and is typically the first approach to clearing blocked lines. Barring the possibility of a collapsed line, hydro jetting will solve the problem. Then, all you need is routine maintenance to keep the lines clear and functioning properly.

Do-It-Yourself Tip

You can try to remove a blockage by using a plunger, which is the simplest way to clear a clogged drain without disconnecting any pipes. The idea is to break up the clog and force it on down the drain. We recommend that you wear rubber gloves.
