HOW NEW PIPE CAN HELP

Drain cleaning is an essential service for maintaining the flow and functionality of your home’s plumbing system.

Over time, pipes can become clogged with grease, hair, soap, food, and other debris, leading to slow drains or complete blockages. We use a high-speed flex shaft machine equipped with various tools to effectively clean your pipes. This powerful equipment can remove even the toughest clogs, while also preventing damage to your plumbing system. For tougher blockages, we also use hydro-jetting, which utilizes high-pressure water to clear out debris. Regular drain cleaning helps prevent costly backups, keeps your pipes in good condition, and improves water flow, ensuring your plumbing system works efficiently.

High-Speed Flex Shaft Machine

  • Uses a flexible, high-speed rotating cable inside a sheath to clean pipes without damaging them

  • Equipped with interchangeable heads like chains, brushes, or cutting tools to break up grease, roots, and buildup

  • Ideal for cleaning cast iron, PVC, and ABS pipes with precision and efficiency

  • Safe for fragile pipes and especially effective for descaling and root intrusion

Hydro Jetting

  • Uses high-pressure water (up to 4000 PSI) to blast away grease, sludge, roots, and mineral buildup

  • Cleans the entire interior surface of the pipe, not just creating a path like traditional snaking

  • Eco-friendly and highly effective for preventative maintenance and recurring clogs

  • Best used on larger lines or when major buildup is present

Snaking (Drain Augering)

  • A traditional method using a metal cable to physically push through or pull out clog.

  • Best for simple clogs like hair or food near the drain opening

  • Quick, affordable, and useful for small blockages or when access is limited

  • Often the first step before determining if more advanced cleaning is needed

Descaling
 
Descaling a cast-iron pipe involves using high-speed tools to remove years of built-up rust, corrosion, and scale from the inside of the pipe. This restores flow capacity, improves drainage, and helps prevent future blockages. Descaling can be done on its own as a short-term solution, but over time, scale will begin to build up again. For a long-term fix, we recommend following descaling with our cast-iron restoration process—applying a smooth epoxy brush coating that seals the interior, adds structural strength, and extends the life of the pipe by up to 50 years, all without excavation.
