What Causes Most Drain Clogs In Homes?

Most clogs are caused by everyday buildup of food, grease, hair, and soap residue. In some cases, foreign objects or structural issues in the pipe can also lead to blockages. Professional cleaning ensures the problem is removed safely and completely.

Can I Clear A Drain Myself With Store-Bought Cleaners?

While DIY cleaners may work temporarily, they often don’t address the full blockage and can damage your pipes over time. Professional services are more effective and much safer for your plumbing system. Our team uses tools designed to thoroughly clear clogs without harming your pipes.

How Long Does A Drain Cleaning Service Take?

Most drain cleaning jobs can be completed within an hour. The time may vary depending on the location and severity of the clog. Our team works quickly to restore function while ensuring the issue is fully resolved.

What Should I Avoid Putting Down My Drains?

Avoid pouring grease, coffee grounds, eggshells, and fibrous foods down your kitchen drain and garbage disposal. In bathrooms, try to keep hair and heavy soaps from building up in your pipes. Preventing clogs starts with daily habits.

Are Recurring Clogs A Sign Of A Bigger Problem?

Yes, repeated clogs often point to deeper issues like pipe damage, tree root invasion, or heavy buildup in your sewer line. A one-time fix may not be enough if the underlying problem isn’t addressed. We offer inspections to identify and resolve the root cause.

Is Drain Cleaning Safe For Older Pipes?

Yes, when done professionally. We use methods like snaking and hydrojetting that are safe and effective for all pipe types. Our team assesses your plumbing before starting to ensure the process won’t cause damage.

Do You Offer Emergency Drain Cleaning?

Absolutely. If you’re dealing with a sudden backup or overflowing drain, our team is available for emergency service. We’ll arrive quickly and get your system back to normal as soon as possible.

08/20/2025 Adding New Review to Previous Review Below Today we had our annual maintenance and today's technician was Luis. Great guy and very professional and knowledgable! After he preformed his service, he clearly explained what was done and things he saw that might need to be addressed in the future. He made sure we understood everything he explained so we had no questions before he left. He also made sure there was no mess left behind and everything looked like it did before his arrival. We have been with The Comfort Authority for 9 years now and can not say enough good things about them. Owning a home you meet many home service companies and many disappoint. The Comfort Authority is not one of those. This company is a keeper! They are very honest and provide great service! They also stand behind their work. Sept. 2024 Previous Review I think we have been with The Comfort Authority for 8 years. They are a top notch company. Michael Kennedy, our last technician, was great. All the technicians have been great. We have been been very happy with The Comfort Authority.

The Comfort Authority has been my provider for a/c service and maintenance on two house systems for several years. Their professionalism is way above average and I never hesitate to recommend them to other homeowners. Glenn Sanchez, in particular, is one of the best techs I've had experience with. Great demeanor and above average attention to detail.

Today we had Sam come by and do a full plumbing inspection, He was professional and courteous. He discoverd a few issues and identified some preventative measures to take. He was not pushy. We will definitely be using TCA when we are ready to take action on those items.

Alyssa was amazing! She was professional, friendly and did a great job. She cleaned the coils, replaced by UV light, and pulled off many vines that were growing outside on the unit. The before pictures showed the very dirty coils and the after pictures showed the clean coils clean and shiny like brand new! She was organized and cleaned up and gathered all of her supplies when she finished the job. She is the best AC technician that I ever had from the Comfort Authority. I highly recommend her. I am definitely going to ask for her next time I need any work done on my unit.
