You wake up tomorrow and your shower drains completely. Your kitchen sink handles the dinner dishes without backing up. Your basement stays dry during the next heavy rain.
That’s what happens when drain cleaning is done right the first time. No more standing water in your bathtub. No more calling in sick because your only bathroom is unusable.
We clear the blockage and show you exactly what caused it with our camera inspection. You see the before and after, so you know the problem is actually solved.
Emma Plumbing has spent 18 years learning every quirk of Everett’s older plumbing systems. We know which neighborhoods have recurring root intrusion problems and which homes need extra attention during heavy rains.
You get upfront pricing before we start any work. No surprise charges when the job is done. We guarantee our drain cleaning work for seven days and back all labor with a full year warranty.
Our team responds to emergencies 24/7 because a backed-up sewer line doesn’t wait for business hours. When you call, you reach someone who can actually help you tonight.
First, we run a camera through your drain to see exactly what’s causing the backup. Tree roots, grease buildup, collapsed pipes – we identify the real problem before we start working.
Next, we use the right tool for your specific blockage. Sometimes it’s hydro jetting to blast away years of buildup. Other times it’s mechanical snaking to remove solid obstructions. We explain what we’re doing and why.
Finally, we run the camera again to show you the cleared drain. You see the difference on our monitor. We test the flow to make sure everything drains properly before we clean up and leave.

Every drain cleaning service includes a complete camera inspection of your line. You get to see exactly what we found and watch the cleaning process work in real time.
Everett’s older homes often have cast iron pipes that collect decades of soap scum and debris. Our hydro jetting equipment removes this buildup completely, not just pokes a hole through it like basic snaking.
We clean up completely when we’re done. No muddy footprints, no equipment left behind. Your home looks exactly like it did before we arrived, except your drains actually work.
Drain cleaning in Everett typically ranges from $150 to $400, depending on the severity of the blockage and the cleaning method required. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’ll pay.
Basic drain snaking for simple clogs costs less than hydro jetting for severe blockages or root intrusion. After our camera inspection, we’ll explain what your drain needs and give you a firm price with no hidden fees.
Emergency calls after hours may include a service fee, but we’ll tell you about any additional charges when you call. Most customers find our transparent pricing refreshing compared to companies that add surprise charges after the work is done.
Most drain cleaning jobs take 1 to 3 hours from start to finish. Simple clogs near the drain opening might clear in 30 minutes, while severe blockages or main sewer line issues can take several hours.
The camera inspection adds about 20 minutes but saves time overall because we know exactly what we’re dealing with. We don’t waste time trying methods that won’t work for your specific blockage.
We always call if the job will take longer than expected. You’ll never wonder when we’ll be finished or if we’re making progress on your drain problem.
Everett’s mature trees cause frequent root intrusion in sewer lines, especially in neighborhoods with older clay or cast iron pipes. Tree roots seek out moisture and nutrients, growing into small cracks and eventually blocking the entire line.
Kitchen drains typically clog from grease and food particles that build up over time. Bathroom drains collect hair, soap residue, and personal care products that create thick blockages.
Many Everett homes have original plumbing from the 1940s and 1950s. These older pipes have rougher interior surfaces that catch debris more easily than modern smooth-wall pipes. Regular professional cleaning helps prevent major backups.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency drain cleaning throughout Everett and surrounding areas. Sewage backups and major drain blockages can’t wait until Monday morning or regular business hours.
Emergency calls receive the same thorough service as scheduled appointments. We bring our camera equipment and professional-grade cleaning tools to every emergency call, not just basic snakes that provide temporary fixes.
Same-day service is available for most drain emergencies. When you call our emergency line, you speak with someone who can dispatch a technician immediately, not an answering service that takes messages.
Hydro jetting thoroughly cleans the entire pipe wall, while snaking just pokes a hole through the blockage. For recurring clogs or heavily built-up pipes, hydro jetting provides longer-lasting results.
The high-pressure water removes grease, soap buildup, and minor root intrusion that snaking leaves behind. Your drains flow like new pipes after hydro jetting, not just barely functional like after basic snaking.
However, snaking works perfectly for simple clogs and costs less than hydro jetting. After our camera inspection, we’ll recommend the most effective method for your specific situation and budget.
Every drain cleaning service comes with a 7-day warranty. If the same drain backs up again within a week, we return at no charge to resolve the issue completely.
All our labor carries a full 1-year warranty. If our workmanship causes any problems with your plumbing system, we fix it free of charge within the first year.
We also include a free main sewer line camera inspection for new customers. This preventative service helps identify potential problems before they become expensive emergencies, and it introduces you to our quality of work with no risk.
