Why do drains clog?
Local tests show mineral levels around 11 gpg. That buildup narrows pipes over time. Add hair, grease, soap film, and food scraps, and the pipe slowly closes up. A slow drain can turn into a full stop or even a sewage backup.
How do I know if I need professional drain cleaning?
- Water drains slowly in sinks, tubs, or showers
- Gurgling from drains or toilets
- Sewer smell near a drain
- Water backs up when the washer runs or you flush
More than one fixture clogs at the same time
If multiple fixtures are acting up, the main line may be the problem. That escalates fast and can get expensive. EPA guidance on sewer backups confirms backups can cause health hazards.
What does Clean Cut Plumbing do differently?
- Do you use a camera to check drains?
Yes. We run a video camera first to see what’s inside the line before starting work. Roots, grease, collapsed pipe, or debris — once we see it, we choose the right fix. - What tools do you use?
Snaking for simple clogs. Hydro-jetting for heavy buildup. Specialized augers when needed. Our goal is to clear the clog without damaging your pipes. - Do you handle big jobs like main sewer lines?
Yes. We’ve cleared main line clogs in older homes near East Colfax and newer builds south of Quincy. We’ll show you what’s happening and walk you through options if repairs are needed.
Are chemical drain cleaners safe?
Consumer Reports warns that chemical drain cleaners can corrode pipes. If they don’t fully clear the clog, they sit in the line and keep causing damage. If hot water and a plunger didn’t work, call us instead of trying harsher chemicals.
How much does professional drain cleaning cost?
Angi’s cost guide puts the average between $147–$345. Price depends on where the clog is and how bad it is. Simple sink clogs cost less. Main sewer line jobs cost more, especially with hydro-jetting or camera work. We diagnose first and give a clear price before starting.
How can I prevent future clogs?
- Use strainers in kitchen and bath drains
- Don’t pour grease or oil down the sink
- Flush drains with hot water regularly
- Schedule periodic maintenance (1-2 years) if you have older pipes or lots of buildup
