Clogged drains are more than just a nuisance—they can stop your household in its tracks.

What Is Drain Snaking?
Drain snaking is a professional method of clearing clogs using a flexible metal cable, often called an auger. Inserted into the pipe, the snake rotates to break apart and dislodge debris. Unlike chemical cleaners, drain snaking is safe for pipes and effective on tough clogs caused by:
- Hair buildup in showers and bathroom sinks
- Food waste and grease in kitchen drains
- Soap scum and mineral deposits
- Foreign objects lodged in toilets or drains
- Tree roots and debris in main sewer lines (with specialized equipment)
This method is one of the most reliable ways to restore proper drainage.
Signs You Need Drain Snaking
It isn’t always obvious when a clog requires professional help. Look for these warning signs:
- Slow-draining sinks or tubs – Water pools before eventually draining.
- Recurring clogs – Blockages that return soon after DIY attempts.
- Unpleasant odors – Foul smells rising from drains.
- Gurgling sounds – Air trapped in pipes signals a blockage.
- Complete backups – Toilets or sinks that won’t drain at all.
If you’re experiencing any of these issues, professional drain snaking can solve the problem quickly.

FAQs

Is drain snaking safe for old pipes?
Yes. Unlike chemical cleaners, snaking is safe for older plumbing systems when performed by professionals.
How often should I have my drains professionally cleaned?
Once a year is recommended, especially for older homes or properties with recurring clogs.
Can you snake the main sewer line?
Yes. We provide heavy-duty snaking for main sewer line blockages, including those caused by tree roots.
