How We Clear Your Drains Completely

First, we inspect the drain to see what we’re actually dealing with. Hair buildup, grease, mineral deposits, or something more serious – the approach changes based on what’s causing your problem.

Then we use the right equipment for your specific situation. Sometimes it’s a cable machine for basic clogs, sometimes it’s hydro jetting for thorough pipe cleaning, sometimes it’s both.

We test the flow when we’re done and show you the difference. You’ll see the water moving like it should, and we’ll explain what we found so you know the problem is actually solved.

How much does drain cleaning cost in Folsom?

Most basic drain cleaning runs between $150-300 depending on the location and severity of the clog. Kitchen drains with grease buildup typically cost more than simple bathroom hair clogs because they require more intensive cleaning. Main line cleaning costs more due to the equipment and time involved. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying. No surprise fees or charges you weren’t expecting.
Yes, most drain blockages can be cleared the same day you call. We carry professional cable machines and hydro jetting equipment on our trucks for different types of clogs. The only exceptions are main line problems that require excavation or situations where the pipe itself is damaged and needs repair. Even then, we can usually get your drains flowing temporarily while we schedule the bigger repair work.
Recurring clogs usually mean the drain wasn’t completely cleared the first time, or there’s an underlying issue like pipe damage or improper slope. Many plumbers just punch a hole through the clog instead of cleaning the entire pipe. We use hydro jetting when needed to clean the pipe walls, not just create a small opening. If you’re getting the same clog repeatedly, we’ll inspect the line to find out why it keeps happening.
Absolutely. Main line cleaning is one of our most common services, especially in older Folsom neighborhoods where tree roots infiltrate the pipes. We use specialized equipment to clear roots and debris from the main line between your house and the street. This type of cleaning requires more powerful equipment than basic sink or tub drains, but it’s often the real solution when multiple drains in your house are backing up.
Snaking (or cable cleaning) punches through clogs and pulls out debris, but it doesn’t clean the pipe walls. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the entire inside of the pipe, removing grease, mineral buildup, and debris stuck to the walls. For recurring problems or heavily clogged pipes, hydro jetting provides a more thorough, longer-lasting solution. We’ll recommend the right method based on your specific situation and budget.
Most single drain cleaning takes 30-60 minutes depending on the severity of the clog and type of drain. Kitchen drains with heavy grease buildup take longer than bathroom sink hair clogs. Main line cleaning can take 1-2 hours because we’re cleaning a much longer section of pipe. We’ll give you a time estimate when we arrive and see what we’re working with. Emergency situations get priority, and we work efficiently to get your plumbing back to normal as quickly as possible.
