Ever wonder how that weird smell from your kitchen sink started? Or why your bathtub suddenly won’t drain? You likely need to get hold of an expert in drain cleaning in Lakewood, NJ.
If you’re the type that flushes dental floss daily or if you throw grease down drains, read on as Garon T Plumbing, Heating, AC & Electric shares how you can dispose of drain-clogging items the right way.
Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG): Not So Liquid After All
These kitchen leftovers, once cooled, harden inside your pipes. They cling to the pipe walls, trapping other debris and creating fatbergs that can cause major blockages.
Better option:
- Wipe greasy pans with a paper towel before washing.
- Collect used oil in a jar and toss it in the trash when full.
“Flushable” Wipes Aren’t Flushable
Despite the label, drain cleaning services will tell you that most wipes don’t break down like toilet paper. They instead snag inside pipes, tangle with grease, and cause nasty backups.
Tip:
- Trash all wipes—even the ones that claim to be “flushable.”
Coffee Grounds and Eggshells
You might think your garbage disposal can handle anything—it can’t. Coffee grounds clump, and eggshells create gritty sludge that sticks to pipe interiors.
Do this instead:
- Compost them if you can.
- If not, throw them in the trash.
Hair and Soap Scum: A Shower’s Worst Enemy
In the bathroom, hair binds with soap to form thick, sticky clogs. Fortunately, a simple drain cover can prevent most of it. For more severe clogging, get in touch with a drain cleaning company for a more thorough cleaning.
If you are dealing with slow drains or smells, call a licensed plumber from Garon T Plumbing, Heating, AC & Electric for drain cleaning in Lakewood, NJ. Contact us and schedule an appointment today.

Ken gave me a very detailed report on how my furnace operates and functions. Was extremely informative about if and when I would need a new furnace vs parts. Was on time and called 30 mins prior to arriving. Ken is polite and considerate. Showed me the different returns, how and when I should maintain them. Thank you Ken for the education and experience with your expertise. Definitely would call on your assistance again! All this for $90.00! Can't be beat!

Devin did a great job, he was super nice, very helpful, and got me in touch with a restoration company to address the other issues caused by my kitchen sink! He was happy to lay out all of the options for me and quote me on other work I was looking to get done. Definitely recommend!

If you don't already know by reading the previous reviews having the most respectful, polite, honest and knowledgeable employees is Garon T Plumbing, Heating and Cooling. There is no hard sell, just honest information given which included pictures and 3 options for the repair labelling them Good, better, best so that the customer (I) can make a decision to move forward with the necessary repairs. Ken also contacted his office to get additional information to make my decision a little easier. Always explaining the process clearly. Ken is one of those employees.

Nick was my technician that came to assess problem. He was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He quickly found the source of the leak and made necessary repairs. He was quick and efficient and cleaned up any mess that was made. He explained everything to me and helped me understand what I could do moving forward to prevent further leaks in my house. I was extremely satisfied.
