02
Main line jetting
High-pressure water jetting clears the main sewer line of root mass, grease, sediment, and the buildup snaking can't fully remove.
03
Camera inspection
We camera the line on persistent or repeat blockages to identify whether the issue is buildup, roots, a belly, or a structural failure.
04
Backwater valve recommendations
If your basement has flooded from a sewer backup, a backwater valve is worth considering. We install them and explain exactly what they do.
05
Floor drain & basement drain service
Slow floor drains, sump-related drainage, basement laundry drains. We clear, inspect, and recommend follow-up where needed.
FAQ
Common questions about drain cleaning & jetting.
What is the difference between snaking and jetting?
Snaking uses a mechanical cable to break up a blockage. Jetting uses high-pressure water to fully clear the line - root mass, grease, sediment. Jetting is the right call for recurring blockages and main-line work.
Do you camera the line to find the blockage?
On persistent or repeat blockages, yes. A camera tells us whether the line has cracks, root intrusion, a belly, or just an ordinary clog. The camera result drives the repair recommendation.
Should I install a backwater valve?
If your basement has flooded from a sewer backup, or if you live in an area where they are recommended by the municipality, yes. We can install one and explain what it does.
