Drain Cleaning FAQs
What causes most drain clogs?
The most common causes are grease buildup, hair, food waste, soap scum, wipes, and tree roots. Kitchen sinks usually clog from fats and oils. Bathroom drains clog from hair and residue. Toilets often back up from flushing items that don’t break down. For deeper clogs, roots or collapsed pipes in the sewer line may be the cause.
How do I know if I have a main sewer line issue?
If more than one drain is backing up at the same time — like your toilet, tub, and sink — that usually means the problem is in the main sewer line. Other signs include gurgling noises, water coming up in other drains when you flush, and strong sewage odors.
How is drain cleaning done?
It depends on the issue. For standard clogs, we use drain snakes or augers to break through blockages. For heavy buildup or recurring problems, we use hydro jetting — high-pressure water that fully cleans the inside of the pipe. If needed, we use video camera inspections to locate hidden or deep-rooted issues.
Can I use chemical drain cleaners instead?
We advise against it. Products like Drano can damage your pipes, harm the environment, and are usually only a temporary fix. They also don’t fully remove the clog — they just punch a hole through it. Professional mechanical or hydro cleaning is safer, more thorough, and better for your plumbing.
What should I do if my drain keeps clogging?
Recurring clogs mean there’s likely a bigger issue. You may have sludge buildup, tree roots, or improper pipe slope. We recommend a camera inspection to see exactly what’s going on so we can recommend a permanent solution and avoid repeat service calls.
Do you clean drains in condos, rentals, or commercial properties?
Yes. We work with strata buildings, tenants, landlords, restaurants, and property managers throughout Surrey, Vancouver, and the Lower Mainland. We provide fast scheduling, clean service, and detailed invoices for building records.
Do you guarantee your drain cleaning work?
Yes. We stand behind everything we do with a workmanship warranty. If your drain backs up again soon after service, just give us a call — we’ll come back and make it right. All work is done to BC plumbing code by licensed and certified professionals.
