Here's Exactly How We Clean Your Drains

First, we inspect your drains with professional video equipment to see exactly what we’re dealing with. No guessing, no trial and error. We know whether it’s grease buildup, tree roots, or something else entirely.

Next, we select the right approach. For minor clogs, drain snaking might be sufficient. For stubborn blockages or recurring problems, we use hydro jetting—high-pressure water that blasts away everything from soap scum to tree roots.

Finally, we test everything to make sure water flows properly and explain what we found. You’ll know what caused the problem and how to prevent it from happening again. We clean up completely and provide you with a clear warranty on our work.

How often should I have my drains professionally cleaned in Middleborough?

Most Middleborough homes benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1-2 years, but it depends on your specific situation. Homes with older plumbing, large families, or frequent cooking may need service more often.

If you’re dealing with slow drains, recurring clogs, or notice odors coming from your drains, don’t wait for your annual cleaning. These are signs that buildup is already causing problems. The longer you wait, the more difficult and expensive the cleaning becomes.

We recommend scheduling drain cleaning as preventive maintenance rather than waiting for emergencies. It’s much more convenient and cost-effective than dealing with completely blocked drains on a weekend evening.

Drain snaking punches a hole through clogs, which provides immediate relief but often leaves debris clinging to pipe walls. This debris rebuilds into new clogs relatively quickly—sometimes within weeks or months.

Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to completely scour the interior of your pipes, removing not just the current clog but years of accumulated buildup. It’s like the difference between poking a hole in a dirty pipe versus actually cleaning the pipe.

The result is that hydro jetted drains typically stay clear much longer. While snaking might need to be repeated every few months for problem drains, hydro jetting often provides relief for years. Yes, it costs more upfront, but most customers find it more economical long-term.

Professional hydro jetting is safe for most plumbing systems when performed correctly, but this is exactly why you need experienced technicians. We always start with a video inspection to assess your pipe condition before using high-pressure water.

Older cast iron, clay, or compromised pipes require careful evaluation. If we determine that your pipes are too fragile for hydro jetting, we’ll recommend alternative cleaning methods that are safer for your specific system.

This is one area where experience really matters. We’ve worked on hundreds of older New England homes and understand how to clean drains effectively without causing damage. DIY hydro jetting or inexperienced contractors can definitely cause problems, which is why proper assessment is crucial.

Middleborough’s older homes often have smaller diameter pipes that were designed for different usage patterns than modern households. Combined with decades of soap scum, grease, and mineral buildup, these systems are more prone to clogs.

Kitchen drains commonly clog from grease and food particles, especially in homes with garbage disposals. Bathroom drains typically clog from hair, soap buildup, and personal care products. Many homeowners don’t realize that “flushable” wipes and excessive toilet paper can cause recurring toilet and main line clogs.

The key is understanding that most clogs develop gradually over months or years. By the time you notice slow drainage, there’s usually significant buildup throughout your drain system. This is why professional cleaning is more effective than DIY solutions for persistent problems.

Drain cleaning costs vary based on the severity of the clog, the cleaning method required, and accessibility of your plumbing. Basic drain snaking typically costs less than hydro jetting, but hydro jetting often provides better long-term value.

We provide upfront pricing before beginning any work, so you’ll know exactly what to expect. No surprise charges or hidden fees after we’re already in your home. Most customers find this transparency refreshing compared to companies that quote low prices over the phone only to add charges later.

Emergency service calls cost more than scheduled appointments, which is another reason we recommend preventive maintenance. It’s much more economical to schedule drain cleaning during normal business hours than to need emergency service on weekends or holidays.

Yes, we provide a 7-day warranty on drain cleaning services and a 1-year warranty on labor. If your drain clogs again within 7 days of our cleaning, we’ll return at no charge to resolve the issue.

Our labor warranty covers any issues related to our workmanship for a full year. This gives you confidence that we stand behind our work and aren’t just looking for quick fixes that will require callback visits.

We also offer free main sewer line camera inspections for new customers. This helps identify potential problems before they become expensive emergencies and gives you a complete picture of your plumbing system’s condition. Most of our competitors charge separately for camera inspections, but we include it as part of building a long-term relationship with our customers.
