What Is a Plumbing Trap & Why It Matters
A plumbing trap is a curved section of pipe under your sinks, tubs, and floor drains that holds a small amount of water to prevent sewer gases from entering your home. While this is essential for maintaining a safe and odor-free environment, traps can become clogged over time, leading to slow drainage and bad smells. Regular cleaning ensures your plumbing traps function properly, keeping your home’s drainage system in good shape.
Signs Your Trap Needs Cleaning
Not sure if your plumbing trap needs attention? Here are some common warning signs:
- Slow Draining Water – If water takes longer than usual to drain, a clog may be forming in the trap.
- Unpleasant Odors – Bad smells coming from your sink or floor drains can signal trapped debris and bacteria buildup.
- Frequent Clogs – If you’re dealing with repeated drain blockages, your trap may be partially blocked.
- Gurgling Sounds – Strange noises when water drains could indicate an airflow restriction caused by a dirty trap.
- Standing Water in Traps – If water isn’t moving through the trap properly, it may be clogged with grease, soap scum, or other debris.
Common Causes of Clogged Traps
- Grease & Food Particles – Kitchen sinks often get clogged with grease, fats, and food debris that solidify over time.
- Hair & Soap Scum – Bathroom sink and shower traps commonly get blocked by hair, soap residue, and personal care products.
- Mineral Buildup – Hard water deposits can gather inside traps, narrowing the passage for water to flow through.
- Foreign Objects – Small items like jewelry, cotton swabs, or kids’ toys can accidentally fall into drains and block the trap.
- Improper Disposal – Flushing wipes, paper towels, or other non-biodegradable materials down the drain can lead to severe clogs.

Testimonials
"Zack came out to work on my renovation and install a sump pump, shower drain, and toilet drain. He was very efficient and precise. Definitely teaching me a thing or two he even fixed some work I had previously done saving me potential problems in the future. Knowledgeable, friendly, and a very fair price. He's definitely my go to plumber!"
Zack was very friendly and professional to work with, and I will happily be recommending him to friends and family! He helped me locate a drain line beneath the concrete in my basement, and he was able to do so quickly and accurately using state of the art equipment. He was generous with his time and was happy to answer my questions. His pricing was more than fair!
I'm glad I found Zack on NextDoor. He was able to complete my project (install plumbing and connect a utility sink) quickly and I'm very pleased with the results. He then followed me to my mother's house and corrected a problem with her kitchen sink. So glad to get these off of my to-do list! Zack is a professional you won't regret calling.
