Story: Bathroom Sink Stoppage Near Lampson & Newhope
One call came from a house just off Lampson Avenue and Newhope Street. Their bathroom sink had been draining slower and slower for weeks. They finally reached out when brushing their teeth meant watching water rise to the top. Turned out, it was a full blockage of hair wrapped around the stopper rod with years of buildup. We used a small cable machine with a 5/16” drop head and cleared it in under 20 minutes. Customer said they had tried two different drain cleaners and a plastic snake from the hardware store. Nothing worked till we got in there. Now their kids can brush without that gross water rising up.
What Happens When We Clear a Bathroom Sink Stoppage in Garden Grove
Clearing a bathroom sink stoppage means getting all the junk out that’s keeping water from draining right. First thing we do is pop the stopper, check the tailpiece, and use a flashlight to see how far the clog is. If it’s close, we use a mini hand auger or our newest cordless sink machine to spin through it. Most of the time the clog’s a wad of hair or hardened paste stuck just past the trap.
If that doesn’t cut it, we run a cable machine with a flex head into the branch line—usually through the overflow port or from the clean-out. If the line’s been blocked over and over, we can drop in a camera to see if there’s scale buildup or pipe damage causing repeat issues.
In 2025, clearing a bathroom sink stoppage in Garden Grove usually costs between $99 and $275, depending how deep the blockage is and what tools are needed.
Common DIY Bathroom Sink Mistakes
One customer near Euclid tried to shove a coat hanger into the overflow. Bent the pipe clip and ended up with a leak under the vanity.
Another used a wire drain brush soaked in bleach. The bleach splashed up and stained the painted wall behind the sink.
Then there’s the classic over-pouring of drain cleaner. A guy near Valley View used so much, it melted part of the stopper mechanism. He thought more liquid meant more power. It didn’t.
