Call for slow shower drain. I arrived and discussed concerns with Mr. And Mrs. Singh. They stated that we have been out before to clear the master shower drain (approximately two years ago). Shower was remodeled nearly five years ago. I inspected and what a grout like substance occluding nearly the whole drain. Substance was grotty and sandy, but had some plastic feeling tubular pieces as well. I was not able to identify the issue. I contacted a general contractor to advise us on possible grout or tile issues that could cause this, and they advised that grout color cover layer may be slowly piecing. But that no other possible scenarios came to mind. I discussed concerns and possible solutions with Mr. Singh. I stated that we could attempt to chip it off as best as possible and vacuum the bits out, if that didn’t work we would have to remove and reinstall p trap. We were successful in removing most of the blockage, with residual grit clinging to walls but not effecting draining.
