Drain Cleaning & Clog Removal

Drain clogs can start small, but they rarely stay that way. A slow sink or shower drain often means buildup is already forming inside the pipe, restricting water flow and putting added strain on your plumbing system. Professional drain cleaning removes that buildup safely and thoroughly instead of pushing it further down the line.

Our experienced team begins every service with an inspection of your plumbing system to locate clogs and buildup. Once the issue is identified, we recommend the most effective method to clear the blockage and restore normal drainage. In some cases, we may also identify damaged or deteriorating pipes and recommend drain repair to prevent leaks or recurring clogs.

Sewer Line & Main Drain Cleaning

When multiple drains back up at once or sewage odors start coming from floor drains, the issue may be in the main sewer line. This line carries wastewater away from your home, and blockages here can quickly become a serious problem if left untreated.

Our sewer drain cleaning services address clogs caused by grease buildup, tree roots, or debris that has entered the line. Clearing the main drain helps protect your home from wastewater backups and reduces the risk of pipe damage. Sewer line cleaning also improves overall system performance, especially in older homes common throughout Greater Boston and coastal communities where aging pipes are more vulnerable to buildup and root intrusion.

Hydro Jetting Services

Hydro jetting is a drain cleaning method that uses high-pressure water to remove stubborn buildup from the inside of pipes. Instead of relying on mechanical force, this process scours the pipe walls clean, breaking down grease, sludge, mineral deposits, and other residue that traditional methods may leave behind.

Our team carefully evaluates the condition of your plumbing system before recommending hydro jetting. Older or weakened pipes may not be suitable for this method, so we inspect first to confirm it’s a safe option. When appropriate, hydro jetting provides a deep clean that helps reduce future clogs and supports long-term pipe performance without harsh chemicals.

Preventive Drain Maintenance

Preventative drain maintenance helps keep small issues from turning into disruptive plumbing problems. Routine drain inspections and cleanings remove early buildup from grease, soap residue, food particles, and debris before it restricts water flow or causes recurring clogs. This proactive approach is especially valuable in older Boston- and Cape Cod–area homes, where aging pipes are more susceptible to buildup and corrosion. By scheduling preventative drain maintenance, homeowners can improve drainage performance, reduce emergency repair calls, and extend the life of their plumbing system while keeping drains clear and odor-free year-round.

Drain Cleaning FAQs

What are the signs that I need to have my drains professionally cleaned?

Common signs include slow-draining sinks or tubs, frequent clogs, gurgling sounds, or foul odors coming from drains. If more than one drain is affected, it may indicate a deeper issue that requires professional drain cleaning.

When is hydro jetting not a good option for drain cleaning?

Hydro jetting may not be suitable for older or damaged pipes that could be weakened by high water pressure. A professional inspection helps determine whether hydro jetting is safe or if another drain cleaning method is a better fit.

How often should I schedule drain cleaning services?

Many homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every one to two years as preventative maintenance. Homes with older plumbing, frequent clogs, or heavy drain use may need service more often.
