VIP Plumbing - Houston's Trusted Plumber

In our experience, the most frequent cause is a combination of grease buildup and food particles, especially from garbage disposals. Over time, this creates stubborn blockages. Yes, VIP Plumbing can absolutely fix it. We use professional-grade drain snakes and hydro-jetting equipment to thoroughly clear the clog and can also repair or replace your garbage disposal if it's the source of the problem, getting your Houston kitchen back in working order quickly.

It's a common issue we see in Houston, and while it's not typically a flooding emergency, we recommend calling for service soon. Running a jammed disposal can burn out the motor. Our technicians can safely reset the disposal, manually clear the jam, and inspect it for damage. Often, a simple repair gets it working again, but if the motor is damaged, we can handle a full garbage disposal installation to prevent further kitchen disruption.

For a recurring issue, we always recommend starting with a professional plumbing inspection. A slow shower drain in Houston can be a symptom of a deeper problem, like a partial clog deeper in the line or even issues with the main sewer line, especially in older neighborhoods. Our inspection will pinpoint the exact cause. From there, we can perform the precise repair needed—whether it's a simple drain cleaning, a section of pipe repair, or a more extensive solution—saving you time and money by fixing the root cause.
