How we clear and fix it

Sewer Cleaning, explained

We locate the cleanout, run a cable with a root cutting head through the full length of the line, and confirm flow.

If roots or grease are the cause, we recommend a camera inspection and possibly jetting so the clog does not return in a few months.

Questions

Sewer Cleaning FAQ

How often should a main line be cleaned?

If you have root intrusion, every 12 to 18 months is common.

Will the roots come back?

Yes, eventually. Cleaning buys time. Repairing the joint stops it.

A leak costs more every hour it runs.

Shut the supply off if you can reach the valve, then call. We answer 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
