Thorough Drain Services in Flagstaff, AZ

Drain Cleaning in Flagstaff

Most household clogs form in the first few feet of a sink, tub or shower drain, where hair, soap scum and grease collect on hard water scale. We use a hand auger or small drum machine sized to the pipe, usually 1.5 to 2 inch, to cut through the blockage. Toilets get a closet auger that will not scratch the porcelain. After clearing the line, we run water to confirm full flow. Simple drain cleaning usually takes under an hour.

Sewer Cleaning in Flagstaff, AZ

When toilets gurgle and several drains back up at once, the problem is usually in the main sewer line. We access the line through an exterior cleanout and run a sectional cable machine with cutting heads sized for 3 or 4 inch pipe. This clears wipes, grease buildup and root masses. If your home does not have an accessible cleanout, we can pull a toilet or install a new one. Main line clearing typically takes one to two hours.

Hydro Jetting in Flagstaff

Hydro jetting sends water at up to 4,000 psi through a specialized nozzle that scours the full inside wall of the pipe. Unlike a cable, which punches a hole through the clog, jetting removes grease, scale and fine roots completely. It is the go-to method for restaurant drains and lines that clog again within months. We camera the line first to make sure the pipe is sound enough for jetting. Most residential jetting jobs take two to three hours.

Storm Drain Cleaning in Flagstaff, AZ

Yard drains, channel drains and parking lot storm drains fill with sand, leaves and gravel between storms. When a monsoon hits, a blocked drain can push water toward walls, garages and foundations. We clear storm lines with jetters and vacuum out catch basins. HOA common areas and commercial lots benefit from cleaning before monsoon season starts. We can set up an annual schedule.

Sewer Line Cleaning and Root Removal in Flagstaff

Tree roots seek moisture and slip into clay and cast iron sewer lines through joints and hairline cracks. Over time they form dense mats that catch everything flushed down the line. We cut roots with a sectional machine and blade, then jet the line to flush out debris. A foaming root treatment can slow regrowth for a year or more. If roots have cracked or crushed the pipe, we show you the camera footage and discuss repair.

Sewer Line Replacement in Flagstaff, AZ

When a camera shows a collapsed section, a large belly or offset joints, cleaning only buys time. We offer trenchless pipe bursting with HDPE pipe and traditional open-trench replacement with PVC. Trenchless work typically needs only two small access pits and protects driveways and landscaping. Open trench is better when the slope must be corrected. Most replacements are completed in one to three days.

Drain Jetting and Unblocking for Businesses in Flagstaff

Restaurant kitchens, salons and multi-unit buildings put far more grease, hair and debris down their drains than a typical home. We clear floor drains, grease lines and main sewer lines, often after hours to avoid closing. Scheduled jetting every three to six months keeps grease lines open and reduces emergency calls. We can also coordinate with grease trap pumping. Service records are provided for inspections.

Emergency Drain Service in Flagstaff, AZ

Sewage coming up through a shower drain or an overflowing toilet that will not stop is an emergency. Stop running water in the house and call (928) 470-9009 right away. We respond with a truck stocked for main line clearing and camera inspection. Once the line is clear, we help with cleanup and explain what caused the backup. Fast service limits damage to floors and drywall.
