Use your drainage rods or augers to clear any blockages in the pipe. Be careful not to push further into the pipe, which can cause damage.

Use your plunger to create suction and remove any remaining debris from the pipe. Be sure to plunge slowly and steadily to avoid pushing further into the pipe.

Clean the pipe with a cleaning solution (e.g. bleach and water) to remove any remaining debris or residue.

Step 5: Seal the Pipe:

Seal the pipe by replacing any damaged or corroded sections, and applying a sealant to prevent future clogs.
