Older Houses, Older Drains

Small-town homes often have been added onto over the years: a bathroom here, a laundry room there. Each addition ties new piping into the original system, and those connections can become catch points for debris. Older cast iron can build up rough scale inside, and clay sewer pipe has joints that roots can find. When a drain in an older home keeps clogging, a camera inspection after cleaning usually reveals the reason and helps you decide whether regular maintenance or a repair makes more sense.

Residential Drains We Clean

• Kitchen sinks and garbage disposals
• Bathroom sinks, tubs and showers
• Toilets that clog frequently or flush weakly
• Laundry tubs and washer standpipes
• Basement floor drains
• Main building drains and sewer lines

Farm and Outbuilding Drains

Shops, barns and garages may have floor drains that collect mud, grit and sediment from equipment and boots. We clear these drains and flush the sediment from the line so water leaves the floor instead of standing on it. Drains that take heavy seasonal use can be cleaned ahead of harvest or planting so they’re ready when you need them.

Homes on Septic

If your property uses a septic system, the drain lines from the house to the tank can still clog. We clean those lines and inspect them with a camera. When the evidence points to the tank or drain field instead, we’ll tell you so a septic service can check it. Drain cleaning does not include pumping the tank.

Commercial and Community Buildings

We clean drains for churches, schools, community buildings, restaurants, shops, offices and rental properties. We clear restroom and kitchen lines, jet grease from food-service drains and schedule maintenance cleaning for drains that clog regularly. For buildings that host events, a cleaning before a busy weekend can prevent an embarrassing backup.

Cleaning Methods

Power rodding

Power rodding uses a heavy rotating cable with a cutting head to break up clogs and slice out roots. Our $89.99 power rodding with free televising special includes a camera inspection of the line.

Hydro jetting

Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour grease, scale and sediment from the pipe walls, restoring the line’s full diameter. Save $50 on hydro jetting.

Camera inspection

Our sewer camera shows roots, cracks, bellies, offsets and buildup, so we can recommend routine cleaning or a sewer and drain repair.

Keeping Drains Clear Between Visits

• Use strainers in sinks and tubs to catch hair and food
• Pour cooking grease into a can and throw it away
• Flush only toilet paper
• Run plenty of water after using the disposal
• Have drains that clog on a pattern cleaned on a schedule

Signs You Need Drain Cleaning

• Slow drains that don’t improve with a plunger
• Gurgling from drains or toilets
• Sewer odor indoors
• Water at a basement floor drain
• Multiple fixtures backing up together

What Happens During Your Appointment

We’ll ask which drains are giving you trouble, when it started and whether it’s happened before. Those answers usually tell us whether we’re dealing with one branch line or the main drain. We check the fixtures, find a cleanout and give you a free estimate before any work begins. After the line is clear, we run water through it to confirm full flow, clean up and explain what caused the clog. If a camera inspection or maintenance cleaning makes sense, we’ll tell you why, and you decide.

Rodding, Jetting or Both

Power rodding physically cuts through obstructions such as paper, foreign objects and roots, so it’s the usual first step for a backed-up main line. Hydro jetting scrubs away the grease, scale and sediment coating pipe walls, which is what makes lines clog again soon after they’re opened. Barn and shop drains packed with grit often need jetting; a root-bound lateral usually needs rodding first. Stubborn problems sometimes need both.

Cold Weather and Frozen Lines

Drain lines that run through unheated crawl spaces, garages or outbuildings can freeze during a hard winter. If a drain stops during a cold snap, don’t pour boiling water into plastic pipe; call us and we’ll find out whether it’s ice or a clog.
