Figuring Out Why Your Kitchen Sink Is Backing Up

A backing-up kitchen sink is most likely one of the most frustrating and inconvenient plumbing problems you'll experience in your home. Refusal to drain water, bubbling, or even overflowing can easily sabotage your daily routine. In the majority of cases, the issue is caused by a clogged drain or waste pipe but may be symptomatic of more profound plumbing problems in the line. Catching the initial signs of buildup and having it taken care of early will save you from having water damage, odors, and costly repairs. We understand here at Delta Plumbers how rapidly a kitchen sink clog becomes an emergency, and we offer professional and emergency service specifically aimed at fixing the situation in its causation.

The Early Warning Signs of a Backed-Up Kitchen Sink

Your sink will gurgle, drain slowly, or be sink smelly before it will back up. They are a sign that grease, food residue, or another substance is starting to hinder water flow through the pipes. Letting them stay so will only lead to other issues like total clogging, water stagnation, and even water leakage through the plumbing system joints. Early repair of them allows early and costlier repair. If your sink drain clogs routinely, that’s your signal to contact Delta Plumbers and get in front of the problem.

Common Causes of Kitchen Sink Clogs

Most kitchen sink clogs are caused by abuse of the drain. Cooking grease, coffee grounds, vegetable peels, and starch meals are all likely to solidify or expand in your pipes and cause clogs over time. Even with a garbage disposal, these kinds of things won’t break down very well and will form sticky goo that clogs pipes. Loose debris, soap scum clogs, and even corrosion of pipes may cause backup water as well. Delta Plumbers uses the most modern diagnostic equipment to diagnose what’s causing your kitchen sink backup before applying the solution that you need.

Do-It-Yourself Repairs Gone Wrong: Why a Professional is Needed

A homeowner is not necessarily against attempting DIY solutions such as boiling water, baking soda and vinegar, or plungers to get rid of a clog. Those are band-aids that temporarily cover up a surface problem but will not solve the deeper-in-the-pipe-system root cause issue. The use of strong chemicals or pushing the clog further in by applying pressure can make it even worse. A professional plumber, like licensed plumbers at Delta Plumbers, uses tools like camera inspection, hydro jetting, and experienced augers to quickly and safely clear the pipe.

The Hidden Dangers of a Backing-Up Kitchen Sink

What may seem like nothing more than an annoyance with a backing-up kitchen sink is actually a threat to the health and well-being of your home. Standing water gives bacteria and mold a breeding ground, especially if food particles are present. The un-draining water pressure will also bring about pipe ruptures or leaks at the back of the cabinet. This can cause final water damage to floors and cabinets as well as structural compromise. By addressing the root of your kitchen sink backup, Delta Plumbers is protecting your home and your family’s health.

What If You Don't Treat a Kitchen Sink Backup?

Half-heartedly treating a clogged kitchen sink will always lead to more serious symptoms. What begins as a slow drain can ultimately turn into a complete blockage, causing greywater to back up into your kitchen. The drier the water, the fewer toxic bacteria it will contain. Before you know it, the whole line is damaged and you’ll have to move or replace the pipe. You also threaten cross-contamination if you happen to have other drains on the kitchen sink line. Delta Plumbers advises these problems are addressed at the first indication to avoid thousands of dollars worth of unnecessary damage.

How Delta Plumbers Fixes Backed-Up Kitchen Sinks

We don’t speculate at Delta Plumbers. We begin with a full diagnostic test using drain cameras and pipe pressure testing to find and establish the size of the clog. Depending on diagnosis, we use high-pressure hydro jetting, mechanical snaking, or safe chemical treatments for the drain to shatter the clog. In severe cases, we may have to remove the trap or pull and scrub pipes section by section. All our work is performed by trained, licensed plumbers who maintain high levels of hygiene and safety standards. We want your kitchen drain operating as quickly as possible.
