Common Drain & Sewer Issues We Resolve

Clogs come in many forms, and our licensed plumbers have seen them all. Call us if you notice:

• ✔ Water draining slowly from sinks, tubs, or showers
• ✔ Gurgling sounds or bubbles when other fixtures run
• ✔ Frequent toilet overflows or weak flushes
• ✔ Unpleasant sewer or mildew odors near drains
• ✔ Standing water around floor drains or laundry tubs
• ✔ Multiple fixtures backing up at the same time

Addressing clogs promptly prevents pipe damage, costly water damage, and unsanitary conditions in your home.

Types of Drains & Lines We Service

Every clog has a story. Maybe the kids snuck macaroni down the kitchen sink, or a tangle of hair is slowing your morning shower. Whatever’s blocking your pipes, we’ve got the fix. Here’s where we step in:

• Kitchen & Bathroom Sinks – Cooking grease, coffee grounds, toothpaste, or stray bobby pins can all turn a free‑flowing sink into a miniature pond. We break up the sludge and flush it clean so the basin empties like new.
• Showers & Bathtubs – Hair, soap scum, and mineral scale create stubborn mats that cling to pipe walls. Our safe, chemical‑free tools cut through the gunk without scratching your fixtures.
• Toilets – From too‑much‑too‑fast tissue flushes to curious toddler toys, toilet clogs can be messy and urgent. We use gentle augers that clear the line while protecting your porcelain.
• Laundry & Utility Drains – Lint, detergent residue, and sand from muddy sports gear can overwhelm floor drains. We clear the buildup and test flow so you’re not left with a flooded laundry room.
• Garage & Outdoor Drains – Leaves, gravel, and winter salt collect in these often‑forgotten lines. Our jetting equipment blasts away debris and keeps water moving away from your foundation.
• Main Sewer Lines – Tree roots, settled soil, or decades‑old cast‑iron pipes can choke off your entire home’s drainage. We perform camera inspections to pinpoint trouble spots, then hydro‑jet or root‑cut the obstruction without trenching up your yard.
• Commercial & Multi‑Unit Lines – Restaurants, apartments, and retail spaces see heavy traffic and high‑volume waste. We offer scheduled preventive cleanings to stop surprise backups that disrupt business.

Not sure what’s causing the backup? Give us a call. We’ll listen, investigate, and clear the problem so you can get back to a normal routine—no stress, no guesswork.

Frequently Asked Questions

• 1. How often should I have my drains professionally cleaned? For most homes, once every 12–18 months keeps lines clear; heavy‑use households may benefit from more frequent service.
• 2. What are early warning signs of a serious sewer clog? Multiple fixtures backing up simultaneously, bubbling toilets, and water around floor drains all point to a main‑line blockage.
• 3. Is chemical drain cleaner safe? Store‑bought cleaners can corrode pipes and damage septic systems. Professional mechanical or hydro‑jet methods are safer and more effective.
• 4. Can tree roots really grow into my sewer line? Yes—tiny cracks invite roots seeking moisture. We use root‑cutting blades and hydro‑jetting to remove them and can recommend long‑term solutions.
• 5. What is hydro‑jetting? A high‑pressure water jet that scours pipe walls, removing grease, scale, and roots without excavation.
• 6. Do you offer camera inspections? Absolutely. Our video equipment pinpoints the clog’s exact location and condition, saving time and money.
• 7. What should I avoid putting down the drain? Grease, coffee grounds, flushable wipes, fibrous veggies, and harsh chemicals are common culprits—dispose of them in the trash instead.
