Comprehensive Drain and Pipe Unblocking Services

Initial Assessment and Diagnosis

Our expert plumbers start with a thorough assessment to determine the cause and location of the blockage. Using advanced diagnostic tools, such as video camera inspections, we can accurately identify the issue without causing unnecessary damage to your pipes.

Drain Cleaning

For minor clogs, we use a variety of techniques to clear the blockage quickly and effectively. This includes:

  • Plunging: A basic yet effective method for clearing simple blockages in sinks, toilets, and tubs.
  • Drain Snaking: Using a drain snake or auger, we can reach and break up clogs that are deeper within the pipes.
  • Hydro Jetting: For more stubborn clogs, hydro jetting uses high-pressure water jets to thoroughly clean the inside of pipes, removing buildup and debris.

Pipe Cleaning

Over time, pipes can accumulate grease, soap scum, hair, and other debris that contribute to blockages. Our pipe cleaning services ensure that your pipes remain clear and free-flowing. We use specialized tools and techniques to remove buildup and restore optimal flow.

Sewer Line Cleaning and Repair

Blockages in the main sewer line can cause significant problems throughout your home. Our team can clean and repair sewer lines to prevent backups and ensure proper waste removal. This includes:

  • Root Removal: Tree roots can infiltrate sewer lines and cause severe blockages. We use root cutting tools to remove these obstructions and prevent future issues.
  • Sewer Line Jetting: Similar to hydro jetting, this method uses high-pressure water to clean the main sewer line thoroughly.
  • Pipe Relining: If your sewer line is damaged, we offer pipe relining services to reinforce and repair the pipes without the need for extensive excavation.

Preventative Maintenance

Regular maintenance can help prevent future blockages. Our preventative services include:

  • Scheduled Drain Cleaning: Regularly scheduled drain cleaning can help prevent buildup and clogs.
  • Pipe Inspections: Routine inspections using video cameras can detect potential issues before they become major problems.
  • Grease Trap Cleaning: For homes with grease traps, regular cleaning is essential to prevent grease buildup and blockages.
