Drain Stoppages We Clear

A stoppage can show up almost anywhere in your home's plumbing, and each location calls for a slightly different approach:

Main Sewer Line Stoppages

The most serious type, affecting your entire home's drainage

Kitchen Sink Stoppages

Often caused by grease and food buildup

Bathroom Sink Stoppages

Typically hair, soap scum, and toothpaste residue

Bathtub Drain Stoppages

Hair and soap buildup are the usual culprits

Shower Drain Stoppages

Similar causes to bathtub drains, cleared with the same tools

Toilet Stoppages

From foreign objects to excess toilet paper

Floor Drain Stoppages

Common in garages, basements, and utility areas

Commercial Drain Stoppages

Higher volume systems that need commercial grade equipment to clear properly

Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting

Drain Snaking

Auger snakes remove clogs and blockages directly from your pipes

Hydro Jetting

High pressure water, up to 4,000 PSI, blasts away stubborn buildup, grease, and tree root intrusion without chemicals

Sewer Camera Inspection

Specialized cameras locate the exact source of a clog or line problem before we recommend a fix

Grease Trap Cleaning

For commercial kitchens and restaurants, removing built up grease before it causes a bigger problem

Hydro jetting in particular is worth understanding on its own: it's one of the most effective drain cleaning methods available, useful both for clearing an active clog and as preventative maintenance to keep buildup from forming in the first place, and because it skips harsh chemicals, it's a safer option for both your pipes and the environment.

Sewer Odor Diagnosis & Cleanout Installation

Sewer Odor Diagnosis

A sewer smell inside your home usually points to a dry P trap, a vent stack problem, or a cracked line somewhere in the system, we track down the actual source rather than guessing

Cleanout Installation

A cleanout is an accessible fitting installed along your sewer line that lets a plumber clear clogs or run a camera inspection without digging up your yard; older homes without one benefit significantly from having one added

Trenchless Sewer Repair

Trenchless sewer repair fixes or replaces a damaged line without digging up your entire yard. The process starts with a camera inspection to locate and assess the damage, followed by cleaning the line, creating small access points, and repairing the pipe using methods like pipe lining or pipe bursting, then re inspecting to confirm the repair holds. It's typically faster, less disruptive, and more cost effective than full excavation.

Common Causes of Clogs and Stoppages

  • Flushing inappropriate items, like feminine hygiene products, thick toilet paper, or baby wipes
  • Grease and food scraps poured down the sink
  • Hair and soap scum blocking shower or sink drains
  • Tree roots infiltrating sewer lines
  • Corrosion and mineral buildup from hard water
  • Sagging or "bellied" sections of pipe that trap waste and debris over time

Surface French Drain

Redirects surface water away from patios, driveways, or specific problem areas

Subsurface French Drain

Buried underground to remove excess water from saturated or poorly draining soil

Curtain French Drain

Intercepts water before it reaches your home's foundation
