Clearing Clogged Drains
When performing professional drain cleaning, we start by assessing the severity of the clog to determine the best course of action. Depending on the type and location of the blockage, we may use a variety of tools and techniques, such as plungers, drain snakes, or hydro-jetting equipment, to dislodge and remove the obstruction.
Our goal is to not only clear the immediate clog but also address any underlying issues to prevent future blockages and ensure the long-term efficiency of the plumbing system. This is why we avoid using harsh chemical solutions to break down clogs, as these can do just as much damage to pipes as they do to the clogs themselves. With our cutting-edge tools, we can typically remove most drain clogs on the spot!
Cleaning Clogged Sewer Lines
Sometimes the issue goes deeper than just one clogged drain. Do you deal with any of the following?
- Multiple backed-up drains throughout your home
- Sewage flowing back up through your drains
- Bad smells localized around your drains
If you answered yes to any of these, there's a high likelihood that you have an issue with your sewer lines. Addressing these types of blockages is a bit more complex than straightforward drain cleaning, but it's still something that we're well-equipped to handle. With sewer camera inspection & location, we can quickly locate blockages or breakages in your sewer lines, and then work out the best way to address them and restore your plumbing's functionality. No matter how complex your drain issues are, we will help you resolve them!

Frequently Asked Drain Cleaning Questions
Drains can become clogged due to a buildup of hair, grease, food particles, soap scum, or foreign objects. Preventative measures such as using drain screens, avoiding pouring grease down the drain, and regular maintenance can help prevent future clogs.
The time it takes to clear a clogged drain varies depending on the severity of the clog. Minor clogs may be cleared in a matter of minutes, while more severe blockages may require additional time and effort, particularly if the blockage is somewhere in your sewer lines.
Chemical drain cleaners can be effective for minor clogs, but they may also cause damage to pipes, especially older or fragile plumbing systems. We generally find that the "cons" of using chemical drain cleaners outweigh the "pros," especially when there are alternative methods like using drain snakes or hydro-jetting equipment that do the job just as effectively without any of the potential destructive downsides.
