Services

Most simple drain snaking jobs take 20-60 minutes. Kitchen sink clogs typically clear in 30 minutes, while main line snaking may take 1-2 hours depending on blockage location and severity. Average response time is 45 minutes, and we often have your drain flowing freely before noon on the day you call.

Yes, when performed by experienced professionals. We carefully control cable speed and pressure to avoid damaging pipes. For very old clay or cast iron pipes, we may recommend camera inspection first to assess condition, or suggest gentler hydro jetting methods. Our technicians know how to snake safely on all pipe types.

Drain snaking works best for hair clogs, soap buildup, food debris, and objects stuck in pipes. It's highly effective on single blockages in kitchen sinks, bathroom drains, and toilets. However, hardened grease, mineral deposits, and tree roots may require hydro jetting or specialized equipment. We assess your situation and recommend the best method.

Basic drain snaking starts at $149-$299 depending on clog severity, pipe location, and accessibility. Most residential jobs fall in the $200-$350 range. Main line snaking typically costs $299-$499. All prices include the technician's time, equipment, and our 90-day satisfaction guarantee. We provide accurate phone quotes before arriving.

Absolutely! We back all drain snaking service with a 90-day satisfaction guarantee. If the same drain clogs again within 90 days, we return to service it at no additional cost. Our warranty covers our workmanship and ensures you get lasting results. Very few customers need return service because our snaking is so effective.

Drain snaking uses mechanical force to break apart blockages. It's fast and effective for single clogs but doesn't clean pipe walls. Hydro jetting uses 4000 PSI water to completely scour pipes, removing all buildup. Snaking is cheaper and faster; hydro jetting is more thorough for recurring problems or severe buildup. Call us and we'll recommend the best method for your situation.

Yes! Professional main line snaking is one of our specialties. When multiple drains back up simultaneously, the blockage is in the main sewer line. We use heavy-duty motorized augers designed for large pipes. Main line snaking costs more than sink snaking ($299-$499) but solves whole-house drainage problems.

If snaking doesn't clear your drain, we have other solutions available. Camera inspection identifies the exact problem—sometimes pipes are damaged or have structural issues requiring repair instead of cleaning. We can recommend hydro jetting, trenchless pipe repair, or traditional excavation if necessary. You'll understand all options before proceeding.

Install drain screens in all sinks, tubs, and showers to catch hair and debris. Never pour grease down drains—collect in containers and throw away. Run hot water for 30 seconds after each use. Flush infrequently used drains weekly. Avoid disposal of food scraps, coffee grounds, and fibrous vegetables in garbage disposals. Schedule annual maintenance if you have recurring issues.
