When Your Home Isn’t Comfortable

We’ll Help You Figure Out What’s Wrong

Most clogs build up slowly: grease in the kitchen sink, hair in the shower, too much paper in the toilet. The drain runs a little slower every week until one day it stops.

We clear the clog, check whether something bigger is going on further down the line, and let you know how to keep it from happening again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I use chemical drain cleaners?

We don't recommend them. They often don't clear the clog completely and can be hard on older pipes. A plunger is safer for a simple clog, and if that doesn't work, give us a call.

Why does my drain keep clogging?

Repeat clogs usually mean buildup further down the pipe, a problem with the drain line itself, or something going down the drain that shouldn't. We'll look for the cause, not just clear the symptom.

What does it mean when several drains back up at once?

That usually points to a clog in a shared line rather than a single fixture. Stop running water and call us, especially if water is coming up into a tub or shower.

How much does drain cleaning cost?

It depends on where the clog is and what's causing it. We start with a $99 service call that goes toward your repair, and you'll get an upfront price before any work begins.
