FAQs
What types of drains can your licensed technicians open in Clinton?
Our team is equipped to clear all residential and light-commercial drains, including kitchen sinks, bathroom sinks, tubs, showers, floor drains, laundry drains, main sewer lines, and storm drains. We use different tools and techniques—such as motorized cable machines, high-pressure water jetting, and enzymatic cleaners—to match the specific type and size of each drain.
How quickly can you respond to a drain clog in Clinton?
We offer same-day service for most calls placed before 2 p.m., and 24/7 emergency response for severe backups or flooding. Because our technicians are based in Clinton, average arrival time is 60–90 minutes for emergency requests and within a two-hour window for scheduled appointments.
Will your drain-opening methods damage my pipes or fixtures?
No. Our licensed plumbers perform an initial inspection to determine pipe material and clog location before selecting the safest clearing method. We avoid harsh chemicals and rely on professional-grade cable machines or hydro-jetting set to pressures appropriate for PVC, cast iron, or copper lines. This ensures effective cleaning without compromising pipe integrity.
What should I expect during the service visit?
1) The technician will greet you, review the problem area, and provide an up-front quote. 2) A diagnostic inspection—often with a video camera—locates the clog and checks pipe condition. 3) The technician selects the proper clearing tool and removes the blockage. 4) A final flow test confirms the line is fully open. 5) The work area is cleaned, and the technician offers maintenance tips to prevent future clogs.
Do you guarantee your drain-opening work?
Yes. We provide a 30-day clog-free guarantee for most residential drains and a 90-day guarantee on main sewer line jetting when a video inspection shows the line is structurally sound. If the same drain backs up within the guarantee period, we will return and clear it at no additional cost.
How can I prevent future drain clogs after your service?
• Avoid pouring grease, coffee grounds, and fibrous foods down kitchen sinks. • Install hair catchers in shower and tub drains. • Flush only toilet paper—no wipes, feminine products, or paper towels. • Schedule an annual preventive drain cleaning or camera inspection, especially for older clay or cast-iron sewer lines prone to root intrusion. • Use enzyme-based drain treatments monthly to maintain clear pipes without harsh chemicals.
