Our Drain Cleaning Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we diagnose what’s actually causing the problem. That might mean running a camera through your drain line to see if it’s grease buildup, tree roots, or something else entirely. No guessing, no assumptions.

Next, we choose the right method for your specific situation. Sometimes that’s hydro-jetting to blast away years of buildup. Other times it’s mechanical cleaning with specialized tools. We match the solution to the actual problem.

Finally, we test everything to make sure water flows properly and explain what we found. If there’s something you should know about preventing future issues, we’ll tell you. If everything looks good for the long haul, we’ll tell you that too.

Complete Drain Cleaning Solutions

Every Type of Drain We Handle

We clean kitchen sink drains clogged with grease and food debris. Bathroom sink drains blocked by hair and soap scum. Bathtub and shower drains that won’t let water through. Floor drains in garages and basements that back up during heavy rains.

For Mather homes, we also handle the main sewer line issues that can affect your entire plumbing system. Tree roots are particularly common here, and we have the equipment to cut through them and clear the line completely.

Our service includes video camera inspection when needed, so you can actually see what was blocking your drain and understand why it happened. We also provide honest recommendations about whether you need ongoing maintenance or if this was just a one-time issue.

How much does professional drain cleaning cost in Mather?

Drain cleaning costs depend on the location and severity of the clog, but most residential jobs range from $150 to $400. Simple sink or bathtub drain cleaning typically costs less than main sewer line work. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you’ll know exactly what you’re paying. The cost often saves you money compared to repeated DIY attempts or dealing with water damage from backed-up drains. Emergency after-hours service may include additional fees, but we’ll discuss all pricing before beginning the job.
Most drain cleaning jobs take 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the complexity of the blockage. Simple clogs in bathroom sinks or bathtubs usually clear quickly. Kitchen drains with heavy grease buildup might take longer. Main sewer line cleaning can take 2-4 hours if we need to use hydro-jetting or remove tree roots. We’ll give you a time estimate after assessing the situation. The goal is to do it right the first time rather than rushing through and having the problem return in a few weeks.
Chemical drain cleaners can actually make the problem worse and damage your pipes, especially in older Mather homes. These products rarely clear serious clogs completely and can create caustic residue that’s dangerous for our technicians to work around. They’re also harsh on your plumbing system over time. If you have a minor clog, try a plunger or drain snake first. For anything more serious, or if simple methods don’t work, calling a professional saves you time and prevents potential pipe damage that’s expensive to repair.
Recurring clogs usually mean the underlying cause wasn’t addressed. In kitchen drains, it’s often grease buildup that keeps trapping debris. Bathroom drains might have hair and soap scum that wasn’t completely removed. For Mather homes, tree root intrusion into sewer lines is common and requires professional removal. Sometimes the drain line has a sag or improper slope that causes debris to collect. We use camera inspection to identify these root causes so we can fix the actual problem, not just clear the immediate blockage.
Yes, we handle drain cleaning emergencies throughout Mather. Situations like sewage backing up into your home, multiple drains not working, or water overflowing from drains need immediate attention. We respond quickly to prevent water damage and health hazards. Emergency service is available evenings, weekends, and holidays, though after-hours calls may include additional fees. We’ll always discuss pricing upfront, even in emergency situations. For non-urgent clogs that are just inconvenient, regular business hours usually work fine and cost less.
Regular maintenance prevents most drain problems. In kitchen sinks, avoid putting grease, coffee grounds, and food scraps down the drain. Use drain screens to catch debris. In bathrooms, remove hair from drains regularly and avoid flushing anything other than toilet paper. For Mather homes with mature trees, consider annual sewer line inspection to catch root intrusion early. We also offer preventive drain cleaning services that remove buildup before it becomes a major blockage. Simple habits like running hot water after each use and occasional baking soda flushes help keep drains flowing smoothly.
