Drains That Flow Like New Again

No more kitchen sink that backs up every time you run the disposal. No more bathroom drains that smell like something died down there.

When we clear your drains, we’re not just pushing the clog further down the line like those chemical drain cleaners do. We remove the buildup completely. Hair, grease, soap scum, food particles – whatever’s been accumulating in your pipes gets cleared out properly.

The difference is immediate. Water flows fast and stays flowing. Your drains work the way they’re supposed to work. And you stop worrying about the next backup happening at the worst possible moment.

Here's Exactly How We Clear Your Drains

First, we assess what’s causing the blockage. Sometimes it’s obvious – your kitchen drain has been slow for months and finally stopped completely. Other times we need to investigate with our camera equipment to see what’s happening deeper in the line.

Next, we choose the right tool for your specific situation. For most clogs, our professional drain snake does the job perfectly. For tougher blockages or buildup, we use hydro-jetting equipment that scours the inside of your pipes clean. For main sewer line issues, we have specialized equipment designed for those bigger jobs.

We clear the blockage completely, then test the drain to make sure water flows properly. Before we leave, we’ll explain what caused the problem and give you practical advice on preventing it from happening again. You get drains that work properly and the knowledge to keep them that way.

What's Included in Professional Drain Cleaning

When we handle your drain cleaning, you get a complete service that addresses both the immediate problem and the underlying cause. We bring professional-grade equipment that homeowner tools simply can’t match – drain snakes that reach deep into your plumbing system and hydro-jetting equipment that removes years of buildup.

Every service includes drain inspection to identify exactly what’s causing the blockage. We clean sink drains, bathtub drains, shower drains, and floor drains using the appropriate method for each situation. Kitchen drains with grease buildup get different treatment than bathroom drains clogged with hair and soap scum.

You also get honest advice about your plumbing. If we spot potential problems during the cleaning process, we’ll tell you about them. If your drains are in great shape and just needed a good clearing, we’ll tell you that too. Our goal is keeping your plumbing working properly for the long term, not creating unnecessary work.

How long does professional drain cleaning take to complete?

Most drain cleaning jobs take between 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the severity of the blockage and how many drains need attention. Simple clogs in a single drain usually clear quickly with our professional equipment. More complex issues, like main sewer line blockages or multiple backed-up drains, take longer because we need to thoroughly clear the entire system. We’ll give you a realistic time estimate once we assess your specific situation, and we work efficiently to get your drains flowing properly as quickly as possible.
Recurring clogs usually mean the blockage wasn’t completely removed the first time. Store-bought drain cleaners and basic plunging often just push debris further down the pipe or break up clogs temporarily without removing the underlying buildup. Hair, grease, soap scum, and mineral deposits accumulate over time, creating a foundation for new clogs to form quickly. Professional drain cleaning removes this buildup completely using specialized equipment that reaches deep into your plumbing system. We also identify root causes like damaged pipes or improper drainage that contribute to recurring problems.
Hydro-jetting is generally safe for most plumbing systems when performed by experienced professionals, but older pipes do require careful assessment first. We inspect your pipes before using high-pressure water cleaning to ensure they can handle the process safely. For pipes that show signs of damage or extreme age, we use alternative methods like mechanical snaking that effectively clear blockages without risking pipe damage. Our technicians have experience working with the variety of plumbing systems found throughout Rocklin’s established neighborhoods and choose the appropriate cleaning method for your specific situation.
Most homes benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1-2 years as preventive maintenance, but your specific needs depend on usage patterns and what goes down your drains. Homes with long hair, frequent cooking, or hard water may need more frequent service. Commercial properties or rental units typically require more regular attention due to higher usage. We recommend scheduling service when you notice early warning signs like slower drainage, gurgling sounds, or occasional backups rather than waiting for complete blockages. Regular maintenance prevents emergency situations and extends the life of your plumbing system.
We handle both individual drain cleaning and main sewer line blockages with specialized equipment for each situation. Main sewer line problems usually show up as multiple drains backing up simultaneously, sewage odors, or water backing up in floor drains or lower-level fixtures. These require different tools and techniques than simple sink or shower drain clogs. We use professional-grade sewer machines and camera inspection equipment to locate and clear main line blockages, including those caused by tree roots, which are common in Rocklin’s established neighborhoods with mature landscaping.
If your drain backs up again shortly after professional cleaning, contact us immediately because this usually indicates an underlying problem that needs attention. While our drain cleaning removes existing blockages completely, issues like damaged pipes, improper slope, or root intrusion can cause new problems to develop quickly. We stand behind our work and will return to investigate recurring issues at no additional charge within our warranty period. Most properly cleaned drains stay clear for months or years, so quick re-clogging typically means there’s a structural problem that needs to be addressed for a permanent solution.
