As a homeowner you should never underestimate the seriousness of drainage issues. Plumbers have weighed in and have given their expert opinion on what causes these issues and some tips on how to avoid them. Here are the four things to look for.

1. Recurring Clogs- If a clog returns, chances are that there is a deeper clog. 
2. Multiple Clogged drains-If you have several clogged drains, you may have a clog in your main drain.
3. Foul odor-Persistent sewer odors coming from your drain or drains can be a major sign of a drainage issue. 
4. Flooding-One of the worst problems associated with clog drains is sewage backup. Getting a professional on the site as soon as you can will help you avoid a big problem.

Routine maintenance is key to keeping those drains open. Use drain catchers or less toilet paper. Also make sure that you run plenty of water into the garbage disposal after use. Just those few things help a lot. If you ever do have water damage, call SERVPRO of McAllen with your water needs. We will be there to clean up the mess those clogged drains made.
