Diagnose Your Issue
Signs You Need Professional Drain Cleaning
Drain problems often start small but can quickly turn into serious issues. Watch for these warning signs — scheduling service early avoids bigger repairs:
Slow draining sinks, tubs, or showers
Gradual slowdown means buildup is accumulating. Caught early, a cleaning solves it quickly. Left alone, the buildup continues until the drain stops entirely.
Recurring clogs that keep coming back
A clog that returns within weeks of clearing means the underlying buildup was never fully removed — only punctured. Thorough cleaning or hydro jetting is the right solution.
Unpleasant odors from drains
Decomposing organic material trapped in the drain line produces persistent odors that no amount of air freshener fixes. The source needs to be cleaned out.
Water backing up into sinks or bathtubs
Water backing up means the drain can no longer handle normal flow. Don't keep using the fixture — backups can overflow and cause water damage.
Gurgling sounds in your plumbing
Gurgling indicates air being displaced by water moving through a partial blockage. You may also hear it from a toilet after draining a sink nearby — a sign the main line is affected.
By Drain Type
Drain Cleaning for Every Drain in Your Home
Different drains clog for different reasons. Knowing the cause helps us apply the right solution — and helps you prevent it from coming back:
Kitchen Drains
Cause
Grease, fat, and food particles accumulate on pipe walls and eventually restrict flow to a trickle.
Method
Mechanical snake to clear the immediate blockage, followed by hydro jetting for grease-heavy lines to scour the full pipe wall.
Prevention
Never pour cooking grease down the drain. Run hot water for 30 seconds after every use.
Bathroom Drains
Cause
Hair, soap scum, and toothpaste buildup combine in the P-trap and drainpipe into a dense, stubborn mass.
Method
Hair auger or standard drain snake to break up and remove the mass, mesh screen installation to prevent recurrence.
Prevention
Install a mesh drain screen and clean it weekly. Remove visible hair before it goes down the drain.
Shower & Tub Drains
Cause
Same as bathroom sinks but often worse due to higher water volume washing more hair and soap into the line.
Method
Drain snake for accessible blockages, hydro jetting for deeper or more stubborn buildup.
Prevention
Mesh screen, regular hair removal, and monthly hot water flush.
Floor Drains
Cause
Debris, dirt, and sediment accumulate in floor drains, often in laundry rooms, basements, and garages.
Method
Standard snake or hydro jetting. We also check the trap seal is maintained to prevent sewer gases from entering.
Prevention
Pour a bucket of water quarterly to maintain the trap seal. Keep the area around the drain clean.
Main Sewer Line
Cause
Grease buildup, debris, tree root intrusion, or structural damage cause the main line to slow or back up.
Method
Camera inspection to diagnose the cause, followed by mechanical clearing, hydro jetting, or root cutting as appropriate.
Prevention
Annual professional cleaning is the best prevention, especially for homes with mature trees nearby.

Drain Snaking
A drain snake (also called a drain auger) uses a flexible cable to break up and remove blockages in sink, tub, shower, and toilet drain lines. It's the right tool for most common household clogs — hair, soap scum, food debris, and surface grease — and gets the job done in a single visit.
Hydro Jetting
For lines with serious buildup or recurring clogs, hydro jetting uses 3,000–4,000 PSI water pressure to scour the entire interior of the pipe — removing the grease film, mineral scale, and fine debris that snaking leaves behind. The result is a line restored close to original diameter.

When a blockage affects multiple drains throughout your home simultaneously, the problem is in the main sewer line. We clean the main line using a commercial-grade cable machine or hydro jetter, restoring full flow to the entire plumbing system.

For recurring or unexplained drain problems, we run a waterproof camera through the line to see exactly what's causing the issue — root intrusion, pipe damage, a belly, or simple buildup. Camera inspection tells us precisely what's wrong before we recommend a solution.

Prevention Tips
Keep Your Drains Clear Year-Round
Most drain clogs are preventable with simple habits. Colorado's hard water also adds mineral buildup to the mix — making prevention especially important here.
Never pour grease down the drain
Grease solidifies as it cools and coats the pipe wall, narrowing it over months until flow nearly stops.
Use mesh drain screens in showers
Hair is the #1 cause of bathroom drain clogs. A $5 screen prevents the most common service call we make.
Run hot water after every sink use
Flushing the line with hot water after each use helps move grease and soap residue further down before they can accumulate.
Flush monthly with boiling water
Pouring a kettle of boiling water down kitchen drains monthly melts early-stage grease buildup before it becomes a clog.
Only flush toilet paper
Wipes (even 'flushable' ones), cotton balls, paper towels, and dental floss don't break down and cause blockages in both drain and sewer lines.
Schedule annual professional cleaning
A professional cleaning once a year removes buildup before it becomes a backup — and often catches developing problems in the process.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does drain cleaning take?
A standard drain cleaning for a sink, tub, or shower typically takes 30–60 minutes. A main sewer line cleaning with a cable machine takes 60–90 minutes. Hydro jetting a drain or sewer line takes 1–2 hours. If we add a camera inspection to diagnose the problem first, add 30–45 minutes. We carry all necessary equipment on our trucks so most visits are completed in a single stop.
Are chemical drain cleaners safe to use?
Store-bought chemical drain cleaners (like Drano) are generally not recommended. They can damage older pipes, particularly PVC and metal pipes, especially with repeated use. They're also a health and safety hazard — caustic chemicals that get splashed during a backup or when a plumber arrives after you've used one. More importantly, they rarely fix the real problem — they may partially dissolve a clog but leave the underlying buildup that caused it. Professional cleaning removes the actual problem.
What causes drains to clog?
The cause depends on the drain. Kitchen drains clog from grease, cooking fat, and food particles that accumulate on pipe walls over time. Bathroom and shower drains clog from hair, soap scum, and toothpaste that bind together in the P-trap and drain line. Floor drains collect dirt and debris. Main sewer lines can clog from any of the above, plus tree root intrusion, structural damage, or accumulated grease from years of kitchen use. Colorado's hard water also contributes mineral scale buildup that narrows pipe interiors over time.
Do you offer emergency drain cleaning services?
Yes. Our emergency line is answered 24/7, including nights, weekends, and holidays. Active backups — sewer overflowing into the home, toilet that can't be cleared — are treated as emergencies. Call (720) 255-9702 any time and our on-call team will respond as quickly as possible.
