Drain & Sewer Services
AL Rooter Plumbing provides expert drain cleaning, sewer line repair, and hydro jetting throughout Houston, TX and the surrounding areas, using safe, eco friendly methods and the latest diagnostic technology.
A stoppage can show up almost anywhere in your home's plumbing, and each location calls for a slightly different approach:
The most serious type, affecting your entire home's drainage
Often caused by grease and food buildup
Typically hair, soap scum, and toothpaste residue
Hair and soap buildup are the usual culprits
Similar causes to bathtub drains, cleared with the same tools
From foreign objects to excess toilet paper
Common in garages, basements, and utility areas
Higher volume systems that need commercial grade equipment to clear properly
Auger snakes remove clogs and blockages directly from your pipes
High pressure water, up to 4,000 PSI, blasts away stubborn buildup, grease, and tree root intrusion without chemicals
Specialized cameras locate the exact source of a clog or line problem before we recommend a fix
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.
Fixing damaged or leaking sections of drain line
Replacing drain line that's too damaged or outdated to repair
Addressing leaks anywhere along your home's drain system
Repairing drain lines that run beneath your home's foundation, using specialized access methods to avoid unnecessary demolition
Full replacement of under slab lines, typically via trenchless methods where possible
Addressing leaks, cracks, or blockages in your main sewer line, often using trenchless technology to minimize disruption
Replacing a sewer line that's beyond repair
Full replacement of the primary line connecting your home to the municipal sewer system
Traditional dig and replace method, used when trenchless repair isn't a good fit for the situation
Mechanically cutting or hydro jetting away tree roots that have infiltrated a line, often paired with a follow up treatment to slow regrowth
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
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 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.
If water is pooling in your yard or threatening your home's foundation, a French drain may be the fix. We install, repair, and maintain French drainage systems using quality materials, including perforated pipe, catch basins, and gutters.
Redirects surface water away from patios, driveways, or specific problem areas
Buried underground to remove excess water from saturated or poorly draining soil
Intercepts water before it reaches your home's foundation
