Is hydro jetting safe for my pipes?

Yes, for most residential pipe materials. We check your pipe condition first, since jetting is not recommended for very old or already-damaged pipe, and we will recommend an alternative if that is the case.

Should I just use a store-bought drain cleaner?

Occasional use on a simple clog is usually fine, but repeated use of chemical cleaners can corrode pipes over time and makes it harder for a plumber to safely clear the line by hand if the clog persists.

How much does drain cleaning cost?

It depends on the location and severity of the clog. We will inspect the drain and give you a firm price before starting any work, so there are no surprises on the invoice.

Kitchen Sink Clogs

Grease, food scraps and soap buildup are the most common cause of a slow or blocked kitchen sink.

Bathroom Drain Clogs

Hair and soap scum build up in tub, shower and sink drains over time, we clear it completely, not just the top layer.

Main Line Backups

When every drain in the house backs up at once, the clog is usually in the main line. We find and clear it fast.

Recurring Clogs

A drain that clogs again and again often points to a bigger problem further down the pipe, which we diagnose with a camera.

Slow-Draining Tubs and Showers

A slow drain is usually the first sign of a clog forming, we clear it before it becomes a full blockage.

Sewer Line Clogs

Tree roots and buildup can block a sewer line entirely. We use hydro jetting to clear it without digging up your yard.

Common Questions

Drain Cleaning FAQs

A recurring clog usually means there is a partial blockage, a bellied pipe or root intrusion further down the line that a plunger or store-bought cleaner cannot reach. A camera inspection shows us the real cause so we can fix it instead of clearing it temporarily.
