Drain Cleaning
Slow or clogged drains, cleared fast, for homes and businesses alike. And when a drain keeps coming back, we find out why.
A clogged drain is one of the most common calls we get, and most are cleared quickly. We handle everything from a single slow sink to a whole building's worth of lines, using the right method for the job: cabling for light clogs, hot jetting for grease and heavy buildup, and a camera when a drain keeps clogging so we can fix the real cause.
We skip the harsh store-bought chemicals that damage pipes and clear the line mechanically instead. Honest work, fair pricing, and we answer 24/7. We have been doing this across Greater Philadelphia since 1986.
For Restaurants & Businesses
A clogged drain in a business stops work and costs money by the hour. We clear commercial floor drains, floor sinks, kitchen lines, and building mains, and for grease-heavy restaurant lines we jet the pipe clean to the wall so it stays clear far longer than a cable ever would.
Many busy kitchens put us on a scheduled preventive interval so they never get a backup mid-service. We can camera the line and recommend the right schedule for your volume.
For Homeowners
We clear kitchen sinks, bathroom drains, tubs, showers, and floor drains. Most home clogs are cleared in a single visit, no replacement needed.
If a drain in your home keeps clogging, that points to buildup or a pipe issue rather than a one-off blockage. We can camera the line and fix the real cause so you are not plunging the same drain every month.
Signs You Have a Clog
- Water draining slowly or standing in the sink, tub, or floor drain
- Gurgling sounds as water goes down
- Bad odors coming from a drain
- Water backing up during service or when a machine runs
- A drain that clogs again soon after clearing
- More than one drain acting up at once
Common Causes
- Grease and food solids in kitchen lines
- Hair and soap in bathroom drains
- Paper, wipes, and debris in restroom lines
- Mineral scale narrowing older pipes
- Foreign objects dropped or flushed in
- A deeper main or sewer line issue
Repair or Replace?
When Repair Makes Sense
The vast majority of clogs are cleared and done, no replacement involved. Cabling or jetting restores flow, and a camera confirms the line runs freely.
When Replacement Is the Better Call
If a drain clogs over and over, the pipe may be damaged, bellied, or heavily scaled. A camera shows us, and if a pipe repair is the real fix we tell you plainly, and show you the footage, rather than keep charging to clear it.
What Affects the Cost
Every job is different, so we give you a clear price before we start. A few things that affect what a job costs:
- Which drain and how easy the line is to reach
- Severity of the clog
- Whether cabling or jetting is required
- Line length and diameter
- Whether a camera inspection is warranted
- Emergency versus scheduled service
Frequently Asked Questions
Snake or jet, which do I need?
A cable clears a single object or a light clog. Jetting is better for grease, scale, and lines that keep clogging, because it cleans the whole pipe wall, not just a hole through the blockage. We recommend the right one for your line.
Should I use a store-bought drain cleaner first?
We do not recommend it. Chemical cleaners can damage pipes and often only partly clear the clog. Mechanical clearing is safer and more complete.
Why does the same drain keep clogging?
Repeat clogs usually mean buildup in the line or a pipe defect that was never addressed. A camera inspection finds the cause so we can fix it once instead of clearing it over and over.
Do you offer emergency service?
Yes, 24/7. A backed-up drain in a home or a business gets priority.
Drain Backing Up?
We clear it and find out why it happened. Scheduled or 24/7 emergency service.
