Case 01

Drain Cleaning Services

A clogged drain is only the symptom. We clear the blockage, identify the cause, and recommend the right solution to help keep it from coming back.

The Case

Clear the line. Find out why it clogged.

A slow drain is rarely a one-time event. It usually means something is building up in the line, and clearing the surface clog only buys a little time before it comes back.

We clear the blockage, then look for the cause behind it. That can mean a kitchen line full of grease, roots working their way into an old sewer lateral, or a fixture that was never draining the way it should. You get the line working again and a straight answer about what to watch.

Questions

Common questions

Why does my drain keep clogging after I clear it?

A clog that returns usually points to something further down the line: grease buildup, a belly in the pipe, or roots in an older sewer lateral. A camera inspection shows what is actually happening so the fix lasts.

Can you inspect the sewer line with a camera?

Yes. For recurring main-line problems we run a camera through the line to find the exact location and cause before recommending the next step.
