What this service solves
Bathroom sink drains are narrow, and the pop-up assembly is a magnet for trouble. Hair wraps around the pivot rod, soap film and toothpaste collect on it, and the drain slowly plugs. A lot of slow bathroom sinks improve when the pop-up is cleaned, but once buildup moves down into the P-trap or branch line, the line needs to be cleared.
We check the pop-up and trap first, then clear the line if the clog has moved deeper. If two vanity sinks share a branch line, we clear the shared line so both sinks drain properly instead of treating only one bowl.
Signs you should call
- The sink takes longer and longer to empty
- The pop-up stopper is wrapped in hair and gunk
- Water rises in the bowl while the tap runs
- A musty smell from the overflow or drain
- It slows back down soon after you plunge it
How the service call works
- Pull and inspect the pop-up stopper and pivot rod
- Clean the P-trap where hair and toothpaste collect
- Clear the branch line if the clog is deeper
- Run water to confirm a fast drain
- Reset the stopper and check that it opens, seals, and drains properly
