Here are a few tips for trying to fix these issues yourself:

 

Clogged tub drain

 

Bathtub drains don't just have soap and water running through them. Hair and even pet fur make their way into the pipes and can cause a seriously clogged tub drain. The best way to remove the block? Prevent it from happening in the first place. Always use a tub strainer to keep hair and other items out of your plumbing. Frequently clean the strainer so the water can properly drain from your bathtub. In the event of a clog, remove the strainer and try applying a flat plunger to the drain. If nothing happens in a few pushes, you may need professional help. Call iSky and we'll send an experienced professional to assess and address the situation. Our plumbers carry all the tools of the trade and will be able to get your bathtub into working condition in no time.

Bathroom drain cleaning

​

When you do a weekly bathroom cleaning, you probably tackle the sink, mirror, floor and toilet. Don't forget the bathtub! Soap scum and mildew can build up, making it more likely that you will have a clogged tub drain. To lessen the likelihood that you will experience these issues, grab a brush and give your entire bathtub and the surrounding wall tiles a good scrub. Use a bathroom cleaner that is easy on grout so you don't end up causing more harm than good. Spend a moment or two paying special attention to the drain as well. Clean out the strainer and wash the stopper. Make sure there isn't any hair making its way into your pipes, as it may cause a clog. Questions? Call iSky.
