When your drains are working as they should, it’s easy to forget just how important they are to your daily comfort. But the moment something goes wrong, you’ll know it—and fast. At Bailey Plumbing Heating Cooling, we’ve helped homeowners across Central New Jersey with their toughest drain issues, and we know the difference that timely, professional repairs can make.
Here are the top signs it’s time to call in our licensed and insured team for professional drain repair.
1. Slow Draining Water
If your sink, tub, or shower is draining noticeably slower than usual, it’s often the first sign of a clog forming. While DIY solutions may provide temporary relief, persistent slow drains could point to a deeper blockage or pipe damage that needs professional tools to fully clear.
2. Frequent Clogs
Do you find yourself plunging the same drain week after week? This isn’t just bad luck. Recurring clogs often indicate a larger issue in your plumbing system—like tree root intrusion, pipe misalignment, or buildup deeper in your lines. Our advanced drain cameras allow us to diagnose and resolve the issue at its source.
3. Bad Odors
Unpleasant smells wafting from your drains can signal a buildup of food waste, grease, or other debris stuck inside the pipes. If cleaning the visible parts of the drain doesn’t help, you likely need professional drain cleaning and repair to eliminate the problem.
4. Gurgling Sounds
Hearing strange gurgling noises from your sink or toilet? This could mean air is trapped in your plumbing due to a blockage. Ignoring it could lead to backups and further damage. A professional inspection can pinpoint the cause and prevent bigger issues down the line.
5. Water Backups
This is one of the clearest signs of a serious drain issue. If water starts backing up into your sink, tub, or toilet when you use another fixture, it means your system is overwhelmed. Don’t wait—backups can lead to water damage, mold growth, and health hazards.
6. Multiple Clogged Fixtures
When more than one fixture is clogged at the same time, it's usually a sign of a main line issue. That’s not something you want to guess your way through. The licensed professionals at Bailey Plumbing Heating Cooling have the tools and experience to fix the problem quickly and thoroughly.
