What it usually is
Most clogs are hair, soap, grease, paper or a dropped item. If the same drain keeps clogging or several drains are slow at once, the cause may be deeper in the line.
What to do first
Stop running water into the drain. A plunger on a sink or tub can help; avoid mixing drain chemicals, which can make the job harder and less safe.

Puyallup is a valley city with an older downtown, mid-century neighborhoods and a lot of newer subdivisions climbing the hills. In Puyallup you often see a mix of older and newer houses on the same street, and the age of the house usually predicts what plumbing is inside it.
