Wilmington Drain Cleaning Frequently Asked Questions
How much does professional drain cleaning cost?
We charge a flat-rate fee to diagnose the location and severity of your clog. Once we inspect the line, we provide upfront pricing options, so you approve the exact cost before we clear the drain.
What is hydro-jetting, and when is it needed?
Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water blasts to scour the inside walls of your pipes. While a standard drain snake just punches a hole through a clog, hydro-jetting removes baked-on grease, mineral scale, and tree roots, completely cleaning the entire pipe.
Are chemical drain cleaners safe to use?
We strongly advise against using liquid chemical drain cleaners. These harsh chemicals rarely clear the entire clog, can eat away at older metal pipes, generate intense heat that softens PVC plumbing, and are highly toxic to the environment.
What are the signs of a main sewer line clog?
If multiple plumbing fixtures are backing up simultaneously, for example, if flushing your toilet causes water to bubble up into your bathtub, you likely have a main sewer line blockage. Turn off your water and call our team immediately to prevent a backup.
