About Drain Cleaning

Slow or backed-up drain? We clear it, then find out why it clogged.

Most clogs have a simple cause, but a drain that keeps slowing down is a warning. We clear the blockage, then check whether the problem is local to the fixture, in a branch line or out in the main line.

Prodigy Sewer & Drain, our sister company, specializes in drain and sewer work, so if your problem goes beyond the fixture we connect you to the right team.

Good to Know

Questions About Drain Cleaning

Still have a question?

Call (629) 276-6322

Why does my drain keep clogging?

Hair, grease and soap buildup are common, but a recurring clog can mean a deeper problem in the line.

Is it a fixture clog or a main line clog?

If only one fixture is slow it is likely local. If several are slow or gurgling, it may be the main line. Our Drain or Main Line tool helps you tell.

Do you handle sewer and trenchless repair?

Our sister company Prodigy Sewer & Drain specializes in sewer and trenchless work and we coordinate.

Are drain cleaners safe to use?

Harsh chemical cleaners can damage pipes and are risky to handle. We recommend calling us instead.
