Our Drain Cleaning Process

Thorough Cleaning, Not Quick Fixes

First, we inspect your drain with a camera to see exactly what’s causing the problem. Tree roots, grease buildup, or something else entirely – we know what we’re dealing with before we start.

Next, we use the right tool for your specific clog. Sometimes that’s our drain snake for simple blockages. Other times it’s hydro-jetting to blast away years of accumulated grease and debris. We match the method to your problem.

Finally, we test everything to make sure water flows properly and check for any underlying issues that could cause problems later. You get a drain that works right, plus honest advice about preventing future clogs.

How much does drain cleaning cost in Colfax?

Drain cleaning typically costs between $150-$400 depending on the severity of the clog and which drain needs service. Simple sink or tub clogs usually run $150-$250, while main line stoppages requiring hydro-jetting can cost $300-$400. We provide upfront pricing after diagnosing the problem, so you know exactly what you’ll pay before we start work. Emergency service calls may include additional fees, but we’ll always discuss pricing with you first.
Drain snaking uses a flexible cable to break through clogs and is effective for simple blockages like hair or small objects. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to completely scour the inside of your pipes, removing grease buildup, mineral deposits, and debris that snaking can’t reach. Hydro-jetting provides a more thorough cleaning and lasts longer, but costs more. We’ll recommend the right method based on your specific situation and budget.
Most drain cleaning jobs take 1-2 hours from start to finish. Simple clogs in sinks or tubs often take 30-60 minutes, while main line cleaning with hydro-jetting can take 2-3 hours. The time depends on the location of the clog, how severe it is, and whether we need to use camera inspection to locate the problem. We’ll give you a time estimate when we assess your situation, and we work efficiently to get your drains flowing quickly.
Yes, we regularly clean drains for Colfax homes with septic systems. We use septic-safe methods and avoid harsh chemicals that could disrupt your septic tank’s bacterial balance. Our hydro-jetting equipment is perfect for septic systems because it uses only water pressure to clean pipes. We also understand how septic systems work and can advise you on drain maintenance that keeps both your plumbing and septic system healthy.
Recurring clogs usually mean the drain wasn’t completely cleaned the first time, or there’s an underlying problem like pipe damage, improper slope, or tree root intrusion. Kitchen drains often reclog due to grease buildup that wasn’t fully removed. Bathroom drains may have soap scum and hair that requires thorough cleaning, not just poking a hole through. Our camera inspection identifies why clogs keep coming back, and our hydro-jetting removes all the buildup that causes repeat problems.
Yes, we provide emergency drain cleaning for urgent situations like sewage backing up into your home, multiple drains clogged at once, or main line stoppages. We understand that some drain problems can’t wait until business hours. Emergency service is available evenings, weekends, and holidays, though additional fees apply. Call us immediately if you’re dealing with sewage backup or water damage – we’ll get there as quickly as possible to minimize damage and restore your plumbing.
