Floor drains and laundry drains are easy to forget until water is on the floor. Both handle large volumes of water at once, and both collect sediment and lint that ordinary sink drains never see.
Basement, garage and utility room floor drains collect dirt, sand, pet hair and debris swept or washed into them. The trap below fills with sediment over the years. Because a floor drain is the lowest opening in the house, water standing there can also signal a main line problem rather than a local clog.
Washing machines discharge lint, fabric fibers, detergent residue and hair. Modern washers also pump water out faster than many older standpipes were built to handle. A partial clog that a slow trickle could pass will overflow when the washer drains.
The grate or standpipe is opened and the trap is cleared of sediment. A cable is run through the line to remove lint and buildup. Lines packed with sludge or soap are cleaned with hydro jetting. If the line connects to a blocked main, main sewer line cleaning is the fix.
A floor drain that is rarely used loses the water in its trap to evaporation, which lets sewer gas into the room. Pouring a bucket of water into the drain every month or two keeps the trap sealed. A smell that remains may have another cause. See sewer smell in the house.
Basement and utility room floor drains catch water from more than the washing machine. The relief line on a water heater, the condensate line from an AC unit or furnace, and the discharge line from a water softener often empty there too. When the floor drain is slow, those appliances can overflow it. While we clear the drain, we check what feeds into it and point out anything that looks off, such as a leaking water heater or a relief line that keeps dripping. If the water heater itself is the source, see leaking water heater.

FAQ
Have questions about your sewer or drain system? Call us and we will help you figure out the best next step.
+
The condensate line or the floor drain it empties into is partly clogged. Algae and sediment build up in condensate lines over time, and clearing the floor drain and the line usually solves it.
+
Either the floor drain line itself is clogged with sediment, or the main sewer line is blocked and the floor drain is simply the lowest place for water to come out.
+
Lint and soap buildup narrows the standpipe or the line behind it, and the washer pumps water faster than the restricted pipe can take it.
+
Remove the grate, scoop out debris, and flush with water. If water does not go down, the trap or line needs a drain cable.
+
Yes. A small amount of standing water in the trap is normal and blocks sewer gas. Water that rises above the grate is not.
