Drain Cleaning
Slow, gurgling or backed-up drains and main lines, cleared and checked on camera.
If roots or grease have blocked your sewer line before, they'll be back. A maintenance schedule clears them before they cause a backup in the basement. Our office is on Greenbrook Boulevard.

It makes sense if:
They return.
Waste collects there.
A backup costs more.
Planted when the house was new.
A starting point we adjust after the camera:
| Your Line | Suggested Schedule |
|---|---|
| Roots in the past | Rod or jet yearly |
| A belly that collects waste | Clean every 1 to 2 years |
| No problems so far | Camera check every few years |
| Recently lined | Camera check after a few years |
On Aug 23, 2007, 3.25 inches of rain fell in a short time, and many basements took on water.
When sewers are under strain, every bit of capacity helps.
Before roots grow and storms start.
We look at sump pumps and backups on the same visit.
A maintenance visit is built around prevention, not repair. Here's where the line falls:
| Included in a Maintenance Visit | Needs a Different Service |
|---|---|
| A camera inspection to check your line's current condition | An active sewage backup. Likely fix: Emergency Plumbing |
| Catching early root growth or wear before it becomes a bigger problem | A cracked or collapsed pipe. Likely fix: Sewer Repair |
| A light interior clean as part of the visit | A heavy clog that needs full clearing. Likely fix: Sewer Rodding or Hydro Jetting |
| An honest assessment of what your line needs next | A line at the end of its lifespan. Likely fix: Trenchless Sewer Repair |
If your line needs more than a checkup, we'll tell you exactly what and why. No surprise upsells.

Whatever it needs.
Interval and price up front.

A scheduled cleaning is short, planned and done when it suits you. A backup is the opposite: it happens on a holiday weekend, it soaks carpet and drywall in a finished basement and it often comes with a cleanup bill on top of the plumbing. For Hanover Park homes with a known root problem or a low spot, a yearly visit costs far less than one bad day. If your line has never given you trouble, a camera check every few years is plenty.
