Kitchen Sink Clogs
Grease, food debris, soap scum, and buildup can collect inside kitchen sink drains. Over time, this can lead to slow drainage, odors, or a complete blockage.
Professional Clog Repair in Oakland & Macomb County
Triton Plumbing troubleshoots and fixes common household and commercial plumbing clogs throughout Oakland County and Macomb County. Whether you are dealing with a clogged kitchen sink, slow bathroom drain, backed-up toilet, floor drain issue, or deeper sewer line blockage, our team can diagnose the problem and restore proper flow.
Clogs are not always isolated to the fixture where you notice the problem. A slow sink may point to buildup inside a branch line, while multiple drains backing up at once may indicate a larger sewer or drain issue. That is why professional clog repair starts with a clear diagnosis instead of guesswork.
Clog keeps coming back?
Recurring clogs, sewer odors, gurgling drains, and multiple slow fixtures can be signs of a deeper blockage. Triton Plumbing can inspect the line and recommend the right repair before the issue becomes a larger plumbing emergency.
Common Clogs We Repair
Triton Plumbing provides clog repair for many of the most common drain and plumbing problems found in Oakland and Macomb County homes and businesses.
How Triton Plumbing Diagnoses and Fixes Clogs
Every clog is different. Some blockages sit close to the fixture, while others form deeper in the drain or sewer line. Triton Plumbing uses the right process and equipment to locate the issue and clear the clog safely.
1
Initial Diagnosis
Our technicians inspect the plumbing system to identify the location and likely cause of the clog. When needed, we use sewer camera inspection technology to locate hidden or hard-to-reach blockages.
2
Drain Cleaning
For many minor to moderate clogs, professional drain cleaning can clear the blockage and restore flow without damaging the pipe.
3
Snake and Auger Services
If the blockage sits deeper in the pipe, snakes and augers can help break up or remove the obstruction so water and waste can move properly again.
4
Hydro Jetting
For severe or recurring clogs, hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the inside of the pipe and remove grease, sludge, debris, and heavy buildup.
5
Clog Prevention
After clearing the clog, our team can explain what caused the blockage and provide practical tips to help reduce future drain and sewer problems.
When to Call a Professional for Clog Repair
Some minor clogs may clear with a plunger. However, repeated blockages or signs of a deeper drain issue should be handled by a professional plumber. Chemical drain cleaners can also damage certain pipes and may only push the problem farther down the line.
Call Triton Plumbing if you notice:
- A clog that keeps returning after you clear it
- Multiple drains backing up at the same time
- Gurgling sounds from toilets, tubs, or sinks
- Foul sewer odors near drains
- Water backing up into a tub, shower, basement drain, or toilet
- Slow drainage throughout the home or business
Clog Repair vs. Sewer Line Problems
A single clogged sink or tub may be a local drain issue. However, if multiple fixtures are affected, the problem may involve the main sewer line. Tree roots, pipe bellies, collapsed sections, heavy buildup, and damaged sewer lines can all create symptoms that look like a simple clog at first.
If we suspect the issue is deeper than a standard drain clog, we may recommend a sewer scope inspection. Camera diagnostics allow us to see what is happening inside the sewer line before recommending drain cleaning, hydro jetting, trenchless sewer repair, or sewer line replacement.
Helpful Tip
A recurring clog is usually a symptom, not the real problem.
If the same drain keeps slowing down or backing up, there may be buildup, roots, pipe damage, or a larger obstruction inside the plumbing system.

Triton Plumbing provides clog repair for kitchen sinks, bathroom drains, toilets, tubs, showers, floor drains, sewer lines, and plumbing systems throughout Oakland and Macomb County. Our team can use drain cleaning, sewer camera inspections, hydro jetting, and snake or auger services depending on the blockage.
How does Triton Plumbing find the cause of a clog?
We start with a clear diagnosis. For simple clogs, the cause may be visible near the fixture. For hidden or recurring issues, a sewer camera inspection can help locate buildup, roots, cracks, bellies, collapsed pipe sections, or other problems inside the line.
When should I call a plumber instead of trying to clear a clog myself?
Call a professional if the clog keeps coming back, multiple drains are slow, the toilet gurgles, sewer odors are present, or water backs up into another fixture. These signs may point to a deeper sewer or drain problem.
What is hydro jetting and when is it used?
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to clean the inside of drain and sewer lines. It is often used for severe or recurring clogs caused by grease, sludge, debris, or heavy buildup.
