When people notice that their sinks aren’t draining as quickly as they should, they often go to the hardware store and buy a drain cleaner. This is a combination of powerful chemicals that can dissolve many greasy clogs. However, if it’s a deep and persistent clog, the homeowner can do more harm than good. They might think that the clog is dissolved because the water is slowly draining through it. It’s far enough down in the pipe that the water just sits in the pipe and not the sink.

If they sit there long enough, they can actually eat through the pipe and cause a major leak deep in the system. Calling Roto Rooter in Pottstown would have been a better strategy.
