What do plumbers recommend to unclog drains?

Professional plumbers rely mainly on mechanical tools, such as drain snakes, which is a type of auger. They also use hydro-jets, and heavy-duty plungers, to physically dislodge or break apart blockages. When faced with stubborn, deep-seated, or grease-heavy clogs, they step it up with motorized drain cleaners, cable machines, and sewer cameras to pinpoint and clear the problem. Plungers for light clogs and snake auger and hydro jetting for heavy clogs.
