What we do

Drain cleaning in Greater Pittsburgh

Store-bought drain cleaner eats your pipes and never touches the real problem. We clear drains the right way — mechanical snaking and hydro-jetting — then put a camera down to confirm it's actually clear. If a clog keeps coming back, we find the root cause instead of charging you twice.

What's included.

01

Mechanical snaking

Cable-cleared with the right head for the line — no one-size scrape that scars the pipe.

02

Hydro-jetting

High-pressure jetting for grease-packed kitchen lines and root-choked mains. Camera-checked before and after.

03

Camera inspection

Every repeat backup gets a camera so we name the real cause and quote the permanent fix.

FAQ

Questions about drain cleaning.

Don't see yours? Give us a call.

Why not just use drain cleaner?

It corrodes pipes, fails on grease and roots, and leaves caustic residue. Mechanical clearing is faster, cheaper long-term, and pipe-safe.

Will the clog come back?

If it's buildup, a proper clearing lasts years. If it's structural — roots, a sag, a break — we camera it and quote the permanent fix.

How long does it take?

Single drains, under an hour. A main line with camera, 90 minutes to two hours. Price set before we start.
