Drainpipes, which are usually comprised of iron, plastic, or copper, are made with wide diameters in hopes of preventing clogs. Toilet drains (10 cm diameters), shower drains (5 cm), bathtub drains, bathroom sink drains, and kitchen sink drains (all 4 to 5 cm) have wider diameters than water pipes.
But even with the extra space, clogs are still a dime a dozen. Clogged drains can be cleared by accessing them through their clean-out valves and removing any obstructions. Tools like sewer tapes, plumber's snakes, plungers, and augers can prove to be invaluable in clearing clogs, as can the drain cleaning tips and services we have to offer.

We have the skill, experience, and drain cleaning equipment to clear clogs of any kind, and of any degree. Our standout drain services also include drainpipe maintenance, to save you from future problems.
The main sewer line is no different from other pipelines in that it is also susceptible to leaks, clogs, and vile odors. Such is why it must also be relentlessly maintained.
