Shower Drain Cleaning in Sterling Heights & Metro Detroit
A clogged shower drain almost always comes down to hair tangled with soap residue, conditioner, and mineral buildup forming a mat just below the strainer or deeper in the trap. We remove the blockage at its source so water drains the moment it hits the floor.
For showers that clog repeatedly, jetting the branch line clears the accumulated scum that keeps catching new hair.
Showers are the single biggest hair contributor in most homes, and hair is uniquely good at clogging because it doesn't break down — it weaves into a net that snags everything else going down the drain. Soap and conditioner residue and hard-water minerals coat that net and stiffen it, and the mat thickens until water can only trickle past. Most shower clogs form within reach of the drain, but a recurring one usually means scum has built up further down the branch line where each clearing can't fully reach.
Two things keep a shower draining: clearing the existing mat at its source, and stopping the next one from forming. We remove the blockage thoroughly, and where the line keeps clogging, hydro jetting scours the branch clean so there's no sticky residue left for new hair to catch on. A simple hair-catching strainer over the drain then prevents most future clogs at the source — an easy habit that saves repeat visits.
