Drain Cleaning

A slow or blocked drain has one job to do and isn't doing it. We find out why and clear it.

A clogged kitchen or bathroom drain is rarely just "slow." Grease, soap scum, hair, and years of buildup narrow a pipe until one more load finally stops it cold. We clear the line, not just the symptom.

What we actually do

We run a drain cleaning machine through the line to physically cut through and clear the blockage, rather than relying on chemical drain cleaners that can sit in standing water without reaching the real problem — or damage older pipe. If a simple clear doesn't hold, that's when a camera inspection earns its keep: seeing what's actually in the line beats guessing.

When it's worth calling

A drain that gurgles, backs up, or drains slower every week is telling you something before it fully stops. Catching it early is almost always a smaller job than waiting for a Saturday-night backup.

On price: every job gets a real look before a number, so requesting your estimate is the fastest honest way to find out what yours costs.

Tim was very responsive when it came to our plugged drain. He did an amazing job and did the job when he said he would. Great working with him and I now have someone who I can rely on.

We had a great experience. They came out very quickly to unclog our sink and spent hours making sure everything was taken care of properly. The employees were extremely kind throughout the whole process.

We fought our Main drain on "our side" of the -City Sewer System- for a week with a hand snake. .. then another week with a hundred foot power snake .. then we called Tim's. An hour later we were back to flushing Clorox Wipes half a roll at a time. Thanks Tim.. I guess I'll see ya next year!

We had a clogged drain and they came first thing the next morning and cleared it. It's impressive as we are really far up north. Great service and extremely fair pricing.

Questions

Drain Cleaning FAQs

01 Is a slow drain worth calling about, or should I wait until it's fully clogged?

Call sooner rather than later. A slow drain is usually a partial blockage getting worse, and it's a smaller job to clear now than after it backs up completely.

02 Do you use chemical drain cleaners?

Our primary method is mechanical — physically cutting through and clearing the line. That's more reliable on a real blockage and easier on older pipe than repeated chemical treatments.

03 How do I know if it's the drain or something further down the line?

If more than one fixture is backing up at once, or a cleared drain clogs again quickly, that usually points to the main line rather than one drain — worth a camera look before cleaning it again.

04 Do you offer same-day service?

Same-day service is available — call and we'll tell you honestly what today looks like.
