 Drainage pitch
Author: Dan82 (CT)

I've throughly cleaned the 2" pipe before. The 1st time I had to make one cut to get the snake to reach the whole pipe and after that no problems. This 2nd time the clog was harder and I made another cut and cleaned the pipe but after that the water goes down extremely slow. What else can I do? Is a long pipe and the slope is difficult. Thank you in advance for any help.

are you running a little bit of water as the snake is turning?
just punching a hole thru the clog doesn't help. you gotta wash it away.
