The problem

This Leander kitchen sink was backing up. The before photo shows it: one side holding murky, standing water with bits of food floating in it, and nowhere for it to go. A kitchen sink that won't drain puts the whole kitchen on hold.

What we found

The clog was in the drain piping under the sink. Food waste had built up inside the pipes until water couldn't get past it.

What we did

We removed the food waste that was blocking the drain piping under the sink, clearing the line.

The result

The sink drains again. The after photo shows both basins empty and clean. Even with a garbage disposal, food scraps can collect in the pipes under the sink. Scraping plates into the trash before rinsing helps keep them clear.
