How to unclog your shower drain

This week I got a call to unclog a shower drain. I started by removing the drain cover. The screws were a bit rusty so I had to make sure I was carful not to strip the head of the screw and create more work for myself. After I removed the drain cover and as I was pulling it up, a bunch of hair that was stuck to it came up with the cover. This almost could have been the problem. I still cleaned it out with a small hand held snake, you can use a wire hanger as the two inch opening is not very deep at the elbow. I retrieved a good size hair ball that was causing the slow draining of the shower. Once I removed the hair ball,  I ran hot water for about a minute to make sure that the drain was cleared of any other debris. I closed it and on my way I went.  So, try taking the drain cover off first before calling a plumber and see what you bring up with the cover, then use a wire hanger to clear out the immediate drain area and see if that helps. Good luck. You can always call us for a free estimate or visit our website www.camarillo-plumbers.com

What Our Clients Are Saying

"We had a slab leak and didn't know where to start. We call Camarillo Plumbers and they gave us an estimate of what it would take to pin point the leak and repair it. They suggested going over the ceiling instead of breaking up our entire kitchen flooring. That saved us a bunch money and time. We highly recommend them" Joe & Lu. Camarillo
