Lavatory Drain Unclog: Simple Steps and When to Call
Slow sink? You’re not alone. Bathroom sinks commonly clog with hair, soap scum, and toothpaste. Here are signs you have a developing blockage:
- Water pooling or draining slowly
- Gurgling sounds or bubbling at the drain
- Unpleasant odors from the sink
- Water backing up into the basin
Try these safe first steps before you call:
- Remove and clean the sink stopper; hair often collects right there.
- Plunge the drain while covering the overflow opening with a damp cloth.
- Use a plastic drain snake to pull out hair and debris—no metal hooks.
- Place a bucket under the P-trap, loosen the slip nuts, and clean the trap carefully.
- Flush with hot water and a small amount of dish soap. Avoid harsh chemical drain cleaners that can damage finishes and piping.
If clogs keep returning, the issue may be deeper in the line or vent. Raptor Plumbing uses professional tools—like drain cameras and hydro-jetting where appropriate—to solve the root cause and help keep it from coming back.
Garbage Disposal Replacement: Signs and Solutions
Not every disposal problem needs a full replacement, but these symptoms often do:
- Frequent resets or humming without grinding
- Leaks from the body of the unit (not just a loose connection)
- Persistent odors even after cleaning
- Breaker trips or poor performance under normal use
- Older than 8–12 years or visibly corroded
What to expect from a professional replacement with Raptor Plumbing:
- Power safely off and existing unit removed
- Inspection of the sink flange, mounting ring, and electrical/GFCI
- Right-sized options: 1/2 HP for light use, 3/4–1 HP for families and tougher scraps
- Durable, stainless-steel grind components and quieter, anti-vibration models available
- Fresh flange and seal with plumber’s putty, proper dishwasher knockout, and discharge alignment
- Leak, vibration, and performance testing—plus haul-away of the old unit
