We all know how frustrating it is to have a slow draining bathtub or sink, and how terrifying it is when your toilets are backing up with sewage water. Kitchen sinks can back up into laundry sinks, toilets into bathtubs, or everything all at once.

We are a locally owned family run company with family values and over 15 years of experience. We have seen it all and understand the complexities of your home’s internal drainage system. Our professional drain cleaning equipment and camera scopes extend up to 200ft to diagnose and successfully remove all unwanted build up in your drains, including tree roots!

Drainage calls are always unpredictable, but you can rest assured that we are always prepared to handle what lurks in your drains. We are here to take your stress away, provide solutions, and clear away blockages.

If your shower is draining slowly or your hearing gurgles when you use your toilet, act quickly. It’s always better to be pro-active than allow a potential disaster to creep on you when you least expect it. We have the right tools, experience, knowledge, and attitude to take care of your drainage issues safely and effectively.

How do you know if your drain is clogged?

You will know your drain is clogged because the water in your toilet, tub, or sink will drain very slowly. When it is completely blocked, water will not drain at all. You may hear gurgling sounds and even see water coming up a drain in a different room if it’s more serious.

What causes drain blockages?

The most common causes are excess toilet paper and other paper products, organic matter (ex: food scraps), products like shampoo/tooth paste, and tree roots. It depends on the area; bathrooms often clog up with hair whereas kitchens are often clogged up with oil and food.

How do you unclog a toilet if a snake doesn’t work?

If your snake doesn’t work, this can indicate that the blockage is much further down the line and professional equipment will be required to reach and remove the clog. The toilet will need to be removed to allow for access.

Is Drano safe?

No. Although many people have seen success with a small clog, we never recommend the use of Drano because as it sits in your drains it’s continually eating away at the blockage and everything else around it. We’ve seen toilet bowls crack, PVC pipes softened and cracked, and the glue holding pipes together dissolved. It’s not the right quick or permanent fix.

Why do my drains smell?

There could be a P-Trap that is dried out. If that has been ruled out and you still smell sewer gas, it’s very likely there is a blockage in your drain of organic matter that has built up over time. The decay and bacteria emit gasses that will creep up through the pipes and out of your fixtures.
