What are the signs of clogged drains?

  • Water backs up out of a sink drain.
  • Water pools around a shower drain, then drains out slowly.
  • Toilet bowl water bubbles when you run the sink.
  • Slow draining of water from your bathtub, sink or other fixture can indicate a clog, even if there's been no backup yet.
  • Gurgling sounds from drains, especially after running a washing machine or dishwasher.
  • A mysterious puddle of water on the floor near tub or sink.
  • Rotting food smell from the kitchen sink drain or disposal.

This diagram shows many of the common types of vents and drains in most homes. The green pipes represent outgoing wastewater, the yellow pipes represent ventilation tubes, the red pipes indicate hot water, and the blue lines show cold water.
