How Do You Know If You Need Our Drain Cleaning Services?

If you are living with a slow-clearing drain or have a nasty clog that’s preventing you from using your sink or toilet, you should reach out for assistance. Some of the signs that you might need our drain cleaning services include:

• Water that sits in the sink
• Inconsistent draining speeds
• Odd, unpleasant odors coming from the drain
• Gurgling noises from the drains
• Occasional water or sewage rising backward through the drain

Any of these problems could indicate the start of a major clog or another problem with your sewer or drain line. 

Although you can treat the symptoms with a pour-in DIY drain cleaner, this is only a temporary solution. Our expert plumbing technicians can determine the exact source of the problem and treat it. Our methods are safe and effective, which isn’t always the case when you pour harsh chemicals down the drain.

If your slow drain is a symptom of a bigger problem, such as tree roots in your sewer line or a collapsed sewer line, our professionals will find it and fix it for you. Sewer drain cleaning and repair is our specialty.

In addition, if you have a storm drain on your property that is not clearing rainwater like it should, we can help. Our storm drain cleaning services include removing leaves, sticks, and other debris that could cause flooding on your property.

What Our Drain Clearing Process Looks Like

We can perform our drain cleaning services using a few different techniques.

Video Inspection

Our plumbers often start the clogged drain repair process with a video inspection of the interior of the pipes. We can see the exact location of the clog, and we may even be able to figure out which materials are causing the blockage. If the drain pipes have cracks or other structural issues, our video inspection spots these problems.

The video cameras have their own lighting, ensuring we can see what’s inside the drain. 

We may also use a video inspection after performing drain clearing to ensure we completely eliminate the source of the clog.

Drain Snaking

Drain snaking is a common technique for kitchen and bathroom drains. When our licensed plumbing technicians do so, we place a flexible cable into the drain, an auger attached to the end. Once the cable reaches the clog, we activate the auger to break it apart. The smaller pieces can then be washed down the drain and into the sewer line.

Water Jetting

With our hydro jetting service, our plumbers use a high-pressure nozzle on a hose inside the drain to wash away any clogs. The pressurized water is highly effective at removing clogs or any debris lodged inside the drain pipe. Because it’s using water, it’s one of the safest methods for clearing a clog, especially compared to using harsh chemicals.
