Plumber’s Point of View on Drain Cleaning Products
⚠️ The truth is, that while there are chemicals that will clean your drain, there aren't any chemicals that will clean your drains without harming them.
The only product any professional plumber will recommend you using as a drain cleaning liquid is BioOne. Please note that this is not an advertisement for BioOne; we are merely validating this as a safer, environmentally friendly alternative to store-bought cleaners.
The best and most effective way to safely clean your drain is to allow us to use our hydro jetting cleaning service.
Routine cleanings will save you more in the long run than having to repair or replace your drainpipe after they’ve been damaged by corrosive cleaners.
What Causes Drains to Block?

This is entirely dependent on the location of the drain.
Drains in your bathroom are more likely to get blocked with a buildup of hair and soap, whereas drains in the kitchen are most likely to become blocked with a mixture of congealed oils and greases.
Regardless
What has caused them to block, it's important to ensure that your drains are cleaned regularly in order to prolong their lifespan and to avoid any costly repair bills.
