Drain FAQs

How much is drain cleaning?

Every plumbing problem is unique, which is why we provide a detailed estimate after our initial inspection and before we start work. The cost to unclog a drain, or just to clean one, varies based on the location and length of the drain, the time and tools required to resolve the issue, and other factors.

What are the common causes of clogged drains?

In the kitchen, food debris and grease tend to be the culprits. In the tub, long hair and soap scum often take the blame. Toilet clogs tend to be toilet paper and “other substances.” In outside drains, the causes could be ground settling, tree roots, and erosion. Finally, structural issues like collapses or misaligned pipes can cause drain clogs.

How do I know I need my drains to be cleaned?

We recommend having your drains professionally cleaned at least once a year regardless of their perceived condition – so if you aren’t sure how long it’s been, it’s probably time! Additionally, we recommend cleaning your drains at the first signs of clogged drains, such as water draining slowly, bad odors, or strange sounds while draining. Maintenance and tackling issues early reduces the risk of backed-up drains or other plumbing problems.
