Have a Drain that Always Clogs?

If you have a drain that continuously becomes clogged, you're not alone.  At least one in five homes has a similar problem with a tub, shower, sink, toilet, or drain. If you're like most people, you've probably used a plunger or poured a chemical down the drain to free the blockage.

Don't!

Over time, drains and pipes become impacted, and a "sludge" forms around the inside of the pipes. Snaking or plunging may temporarily assuage the clog, but they don't eliminate the cause. And if you use chemicals, you may be harming your pipes and fixtures.

When you have a drain with consistent problems, call a professional, like Russo Bros. & Co.  We will send a highly qualified technician in a fully stocked truck to assess the situation.  They can find out if it really is just a clump of hair causing a clog, or something more serious, like a tree root that's slowly destroying your piping.
