Bathroom plumbing problems often start small but can become larger issues if they’re ignored.

With NH LIC #2490C, more than 19,000 customer reviews, and experienced plumbing professionals, Heritage Home Service helps New Hampshire homeowners restore their bathrooms quickly and efficiently.

Professional Shower Drain Unclogging
A slow shower drain is usually the first warning sign that a blockage is developing.
Hair, soap residue, shampoo buildup, mineral deposits, and other debris gradually collect inside the drainpipe, restricting water flow. Over time, this buildup can create a complete blockage that leaves water standing in your shower.
Our plumbers safely remove clogs without damaging your plumbing system.
Signs Your Shower Drain Needs Professional Service
Call Heritage Home Service if you notice:
- Water draining slowly
- Standing water in the shower
- Gurgling sounds from the drain
- Unpleasant drain odors
- Water backing up while showering
- Frequent recurring clogs
Addressing these problems early can help prevent more serious plumbing issues later.
Common Causes of Shower Drain Clogs
Most shower drain blockages are caused by everyday use.
Common causes include:
- Hair buildup
- Soap scum
- Conditioner residue
- Mineral deposits from hard water
- Dirt and debris
- Small objects accidentally entering the drain
If a drain continues clogging after repeated attempts to clear it, there may be a deeper blockage within the plumbing system that requires professional equipment.
Safe Drain Cleaning Solutions
Many homeowners reach for chemical drain cleaners when a shower begins draining slowly.
Unfortunately, harsh chemicals may not fully remove the blockage and can sometimes damage older pipes or plumbing fixtures.
Our plumbers use professional tools and proven techniques to remove clogs while protecting your plumbing system.
Depending on the situation, service may include:
- Drain inspection
- Professional drain augering
- Mechanical clog removal
- Recommendations for recurring drain issues
- Evaluation for deeper sewer line concerns if necessary
Our goal is to restore proper drainage while helping reduce the likelihood of future problems.
Toilet Repair Services
A properly functioning toilet is one of the most important fixtures in your home.
When something goes wrong, even a minor issue can become frustrating quickly.
Heritage Home Service repairs virtually every type of residential toilet problem.
Running Toilets
A toilet that continues running after flushing can waste significant amounts of water.
Common causes include:
- Worn flappers
- Faulty fill valves
- Improper float adjustments
- Flush valve issues
Prompt repairs help reduce water waste and may lower utility bills.
Toilets That Won’t Flush Properly
If your toilet requires multiple flushes or doesn’t clear the bowl completely, the issue may involve:
- Partial clogs
- Worn flushing components
- Low water levels
- Internal tank problems
Our plumbers identify the underlying cause before recommending repairs.
Toilet Leaks
Leaks can develop around:
- The base of the toilet
- Supply line connections
- Tank bolts
- Fill valves
- Flush valves
Even small leaks can cause water damage if left untreated.
Constant Clogs
An occasional clog isn’t unusual.
However, if your toilet clogs repeatedly, there may be:
- A blockage deeper in the drain line
- Venting issues
- Problems with the toilet itself
- Sewer line concerns
Our team performs a complete evaluation to determine why the problem keeps returning.
Should Your Toilet Be Repaired or Replaced?
In many cases, repairing a toilet is the most practical solution.
However, replacement may make more sense if:
- The fixture is cracked
- Repairs have become frequent
- The toilet uses excessive water
- Internal components continue failing
- You want to upgrade to a more efficient model
Our plumbers explain your options and help you choose the solution that offers the best long-term value.
