You’ll get drains that flow like new again. No more standing water in your shower, no more kitchen sinks that won’t drain, no more foul smells creeping up from your pipes.
Our hydro jetting technology doesn’t just punch through clogs—it scours your entire pipe system clean. That means the grease, hair, soap scum, and debris that’s been building up for months gets completely removed, not just pushed further down.
The result? Drains that work properly for months instead of backing up again next week. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying upfront, with our transparent pricing and no hidden fees that surprise you later.
Emma Plumbing And Drain Services has been solving drain problems in Hanover and the South Shore since 2007. We’ve seen every type of clog, backup, and pipe issue you can imagine.
What makes us different? We actually fix the problem instead of just treating symptoms. While other companies snake your drain and leave, we use video inspection cameras to see exactly what’s causing your issues.
Hanover homeowners deal with unique challenges—older homes with aging pipes, tree roots from mature landscaping, and the freeze-thaw cycles that can crack sewer lines. We understand these local conditions and have the right equipment to handle them properly.
First, we inspect your drain system with our video camera to pinpoint the exact problem. No guessing, no unnecessary work—just a clear view of what’s actually blocking your pipes.
Next, we choose the right tool for your specific situation. For tough clogs and buildup, we use hydro jetting—high-pressure water that completely cleans your pipes without harsh chemicals. For simpler blockages, drain snaking might do the job.
After clearing the blockage, we test your drains to make sure water flows properly. Then we show you the before-and-after footage so you can see the difference. You’ll get a clear explanation of what caused the problem and how to prevent it from happening again.

Your drain cleaning service includes video inspection, professional cleaning with the right equipment for your specific blockage, and thorough testing to ensure proper flow. We also provide a detailed explanation of what we found and recommendations for preventing future problems.
Hanover’s older neighborhoods often have mature trees whose roots infiltrate sewer lines, especially along streets like Circuit and Webster. Our hydro jetting equipment can handle these root intrusions without damaging your pipes. We also address the grease buildup common in kitchen drains and the hair and soap scum that plague bathroom drains.
Every service comes with our 7-day warranty on drain cleaning work and our 1-year labor warranty. If your drain backs up again within a week, we’ll return at no charge to make it right.
Our drain cleaning services typically range from $150 to $400, depending on the severity of the blockage and the method needed. Simple drain snaking costs less than hydro jetting, but hydro jetting provides more thorough, longer-lasting results.
We always provide upfront pricing before starting any work. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying with no hidden fees or surprise charges. Most homeowners find that professional cleaning actually saves money compared to repeatedly buying store-bought drain cleaners that don’t solve the underlying problem.
Emergency service is available 24/7 at the same rates—we don’t charge extra for nights, weekends, or holidays like many other companies.
Drain snaking punches a hole through clogs but leaves buildup on your pipe walls. It’s like clearing a path through snow—the blockage might be gone temporarily, but the conditions that caused it are still there.
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to completely scour the inside of your pipes. It removes not just the immediate clog, but all the grease, soap scum, hair, and debris that’s been accumulating for months. This prevents clogs from reforming quickly.
For older homes in Hanover with recurring drain problems, hydro jetting is usually the better long-term solution. It’s also environmentally friendly since it uses only water—no harsh chemicals that can damage your pipes or harm the environment.
Most Hanover homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every 12-18 months, but it depends on your household and your home’s age. Homes with older pipes, large families, or mature trees nearby might need service more frequently.
If you’re dealing with slow drains, recurring clogs, or bad odors coming from your drains, don’t wait for your regular maintenance schedule. These are signs that buildup is already causing problems and will only get worse.
Our free main sewer line camera inspection for new customers helps determine the right maintenance schedule for your specific situation. We’ll show you the condition of your pipes and recommend a cleaning frequency that prevents emergencies while staying within your budget.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency drain cleaning service throughout Hanover and the South Shore area. When your main sewer line backs up or your drains completely stop working, you can’t wait until Monday morning.
Our emergency response team is equipped with professional-grade equipment including video inspection cameras and hydro jetting machines. We can diagnose and fix most drain problems on the spot, even in the middle of the night.
We don’t charge extra fees for emergency calls, unlike many companies that add weekend or after-hours surcharges. The same transparent pricing applies whether you call us at 2 PM or 2 AM.
Kitchen drains typically clog from grease, food particles, and soap buildup. Even with garbage disposals, small food particles accumulate over time and create blockages. Bathroom drains deal with hair, soap scum, and personal care products that stick to pipe walls.
Hanover’s mature neighborhoods face additional challenges from tree roots that infiltrate sewer lines through small cracks or joints. The freeze-thaw cycles we experience can also create pipe movement that opens gaps where roots can enter.
Many homeowners make the problem worse by using chemical drain cleaners that can actually damage pipes over time. These products often push clogs deeper into the system rather than removing them completely, leading to bigger problems later.
Absolutely. We provide a 7-day warranty on all drain cleaning services and a 1-year warranty on our labor. If your drain backs up again within a week of our service, we’ll return at no charge to make it right.
Our warranties reflect our confidence in our work and equipment. When we hydro jet your pipes, we’re not just clearing the immediate problem—we’re removing the buildup that causes recurring clogs. Most customers don’t need service again for 12-18 months.
We also guarantee our upfront pricing. The price we quote is the price you pay, with no hidden fees or surprise charges. If we discover additional issues during the work, we’ll explain your options and get your approval before proceeding with any additional services.
