Gurgling Toilets or Drains Air trapped in the sewer line indicates a partial blockage.

Process

Our Proven 3-Step Sewer Line Cleaning Process

Installing a tankless water heater requires exact measurements, proper venting, and careful calibration. Our certified technicians follow a proven five-step process to ensure your new system operates safely, efficiently, and to factory standards.

01

Video Camera Inspection

We insert a high-definition camera into your main line to pinpoint blockages, roots, or damage — giving you a clear, visual diagnosis.

02

Advanced Cleaning Method

Depending on the blockage, we use power augers for tough obstructions or high-pressure hydro jetting (up to 4000 PSI) to clear grease, roots, and scale from the entire pipe wall.

03

Verification & Prevention

After cleaning, we run the camera again to ensure your line is fully clear. You’ll receive maintenance recommendations to prevent future clogs.

Is a snake sufficient, or do I need Hydro-Jetting?

If you have recurring clogs or suspect roots/grease, Hydro-Jetting is necessary. Snaking punches a hole through the clog but leaves the pipe walls dirty, allowing the clog to quickly return. Jetting cleans the pipe entirely.

How often should I clean my main sewer line?

If you have an older line or known root intrusion, we recommend a preventative cleaning every 1 to 2 years. If your system is newer and clear, maintenance every 3–5 years is sufficient.

Can roots permanently damage my sewer pipe?

We strongly advise against it. Chemical cleaners are less effective than our tools and can damage your pipes and pose a safety risk to our technicians. We can clear the drain without harsh chemicals.

Do you offer emergency service for sewer backups?

Absolutely. Sewage backups are a health emergency. Call our 24/7 hotline immediately, and we will dispatch a technician as quickly as possible to mitigate the issue.
