What You Get With Real Drain Cleaning

Your kitchen sink drains completely again. No more standing water while you’re trying to clean dishes or prep dinner.

That bathroom sink that’s been gurgling and draining slowly? It works like it should. Water goes down fast, stays down, and doesn’t come back up with weird smells.

You stop worrying about whether that clog is going to turn into a bigger problem. When we clean your drains, we’re not just clearing what’s blocking them today – we’re removing the buildup that causes problems to come back. Most of our customers are surprised at how much better their drains work after a proper cleaning, not just how they’re “fixed” but actually improved from where they were before the clog happened.

Our Drain Cleaning Process

How We Actually Fix Your Drains

First, we figure out what’s really going on. We don’t just start snaking blindly – we use cameras and diagnostic tools to see exactly what’s blocking your drain and where. Sometimes it’s hair and soap buildup, sometimes it’s grease, sometimes it’s something that got flushed that shouldn’t have been.

Then we choose the right method to clear it. For simple clogs, professional snaking gets the job done. For buildup and stubborn blockages, we use hydro jetting – high-pressure water that scours your pipes clean and removes the residue that causes clogs to come back.

After we clear the blockage, we test everything to make sure water flows properly and check for any underlying issues that might cause problems later. You’ll know exactly what we found, what we did, and what to expect going forward. No surprises, no wondering if it’s really fixed.

Everything We Handle For Your Drains

We clean all types of drains in your home. Kitchen sinks that are slow from grease and food particles. Bathroom sinks clogged with hair and soap scum. Floor drains in basements that back up during heavy rains. Main sewer line blockages that affect your whole house.

For emergency situations – like when your kitchen sink is completely backed up and you can’t use it, or when there’s sewage coming up in your basement – we provide same-day service. We know these problems don’t wait for convenient times.

Our service includes camera inspection when needed, so you can see exactly what was blocking your drain. We explain what caused the problem and give you practical advice on preventing it from happening again. Every drain cleaning comes with our guarantee – if the same blockage comes back within our warranty period, we’ll return and clear it again at no charge.

Most drain cleaning jobs in Hazlet run between $150-$400, depending on the location and severity of the clog. Simple kitchen sink or bathroom drain cleaning typically costs less than main sewer line cleaning. We provide upfront pricing before we start work – no surprises or hidden fees added to your bill. Emergency service calls may include an additional fee, but we’ll tell you exactly what you’re paying before our technician comes out. The investment usually pays for itself by preventing bigger, more expensive problems down the road.
Snaking uses a flexible cable with a cutting head to break through clogs and pull out debris. It’s effective for most basic blockages like hair, small objects, or simple buildup. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to completely scour the inside of your pipes, removing grease, soap scum, mineral deposits, and other residue that snaking leaves behind. Hydro jetting costs more but gives you a much more thorough cleaning that lasts longer. We recommend hydro jetting for recurring clogs, grease-heavy kitchen drains, or when you want the most complete cleaning possible.
Most drain cleaning jobs take 1-2 hours from start to finish. Simple clogs in accessible drains might be done in 30-45 minutes. More complex jobs – like main sewer line cleaning or situations where we need to use camera inspection – can take 2-3 hours. We’ll give you a time estimate when we assess the problem. Emergency calls get priority scheduling, and we work efficiently to get your drains working again as quickly as possible without cutting corners on the quality of the work.
Professional drain cleaning performed by licensed technicians won’t damage your pipes. We use the right equipment and techniques for your specific pipe materials and age. Modern snaking equipment is designed to clear clogs without scraping or damaging pipe walls. Hydro jetting is safe for most residential plumbing when performed correctly – we adjust pressure based on your pipe type and condition. This is actually much safer than chemical drain cleaners, which can corrode pipes over time, or aggressive DIY methods that can cause real damage requiring expensive repairs.
Most homes benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1-2 years as preventive maintenance. Homes with heavy usage, older plumbing, or recurring problems might need annual cleaning. Kitchen drains that handle a lot of grease may need attention more frequently. The best schedule depends on your specific situation – how many people live in your home, what goes down your drains, and the age of your plumbing. After we clean your drains, we can recommend a maintenance schedule based on what we found and your usage patterns.
Yes, but we need to know what chemicals were used for safety reasons. Chemical drain cleaners often don’t fully solve the problem – they might clear a path through the clog but leave residue that causes it to return quickly. Sometimes they make the situation worse by pushing debris deeper into your pipes. We can safely clear drains that have been chemically treated, and our cleaning will remove both the original clog and any chemical residue. For future reference, avoid chemical cleaners – they’re harsh on your pipes and rarely provide lasting solutions compared to professional mechanical cleaning.
