Do drain snakes work?
A plumbing snake is used to remove debris that is hard to reach. The plumbing snake is reserved for difficult clogs that cannot be taken care by the use of a plunger. Drain snakes come in different shapes in sizes according to the clog you are experiencing. A toilet auger is a snake made especially for a blockage in a toilet. Top snakes are mostly used for bathtubs, shower drain blockages and occasionally the kitchen sink. Depending on how bad the drain is clogged, sometimes snake drains can be tough to work with. A snake drain is successful when it is inserted in the hole and maneuvered through the clog until water can pass through.
