Our Approach to Drain Cleaning

A clogged drain is a major annoyance, so when you call us, our technicians arrive ready to get things moving again. Our service trucks are stocked with the right tools for the job. For most common household clogs in sinks, tubs, or toilets, we use professional drain snakes and augers to break up the obstruction and restore normal flow quickly.

When a clog is particularly stubborn or located deep in your main sewer line, we have a more powerful solution: hydro jetting. This advanced method sends a high-pressure stream of water through your pipes, safely scouring away years of built-up grease, soap residue, and scale. Unlike a snake that punches a hole through the blockage, hydro jetting cleans the entire inner surface of the pipe. This thorough cleaning technique wipes out the issue and helps prevent clogs from returning.

Signs You Need Professional Drain Cleaning

Sometimes it's obvious you have a clog, but other times the signs are more subtle. Calling for service when you first notice an issue can prevent a complete blockage.

Keep an eye out for these common indicators of a growing clog:

Slow draining. Water in your sinks, tubs, or showers takes much longer than usual to drain away.
Unpleasant odors. You notice foul smells from your drains, often caused by trapped, decaying food and waste.
Gurgling sounds. Bubbling or gurgling noises from your drains or toilet can signal that air is trapped in the pipes by a blockage.
Water backups. Water is backing up from a drain or in a nearby fixture. For example, flushing a toilet might cause water to rise in the shower drain.
Recurring clogs. You repeatedly deal with the same clogged drain, even after attempting to clear it yourself.

Preventing Clogs in Your Mount Vernon Home

While we are always here to help, a few preventative habits can go a long way in keeping your drains flowing freely.

The kitchen is a popular area for clogs, so it’s essential to be mindful of what goes down the sink. Always scrape food scraps into the trash before rinsing dishes, and never pour cooking grease, fats, or oils down the drain. As grease cools, it solidifies inside your pipes, creating a sticky trap for other debris that passes by.

Your bathroom drains also need attention. Placing a hair catcher over the shower and tub drains is a simple, effective way to stop the number one cause of bathroom clogs. It’s also important to remember that toilets are only designed to handle human waste and toilet paper. Flushing other items like cotton swabs, paper towels, or even wipes marketed as "flushable" can lead to serious and inconvenient backups.

When a Clog Signals a Bigger Issue

While a simple clog is often just a nuisance, like hair in a single shower drain, your plumbing can send more serious warning signs. If you notice multiple fixtures draining slowly, hear gurgling sounds from a toilet when you use a sink, or see water backing up in a floor drain when the washing machine runs, the problem likely lies deeper.

These are the telltale signs of an obstruction in your home's main sewer line—the single, vital pipe carrying all wastewater from your property. A blockage here impacts your entire house. In Mount Vernon, with our beautiful, mature landscape, the most common cause of these deep blockages is root intrusion. The roots from the firs, maples, and other trees that thrive in our valley are naturally drawn to the moisture in sewer lines and can force their way through small joints or cracks in a pipe. This is especially prevalent in older homes with clay or cast-iron sewer pipes. Pinpointing the exact nature of these deep-seated clogs requires a direct look; our proficient technicians use advanced camera inspection tools to diagnose these issues and determine the most effective solutions visually.
