Fast Emergency Drain Cleaning In Orchard Lake

Expert Drain And Sewer Service, With No Additional “After Hours” Cost

If you’re dealing with a messy backup in the middle of the night, calling an expert can lead to expensive price hikes but ignoring the problem until the morning could make things much worse. You shouldn’t have to stress about immediate service to save a bigger hit on your wallet. At Zoom Drain of Metro Detroit, we understand that drain problems happen outside of a standard 9-to-5 schedule, which is why there’s never an additional charge for our service, no matter when! It doesn’t matter if it’s during the day, at night, on the weekend or even on a holiday, you’ll pay the same amount for one of our experts to come out and perform our drain cleaning service.

And, no matter what time, day or night, 24/7, we always have the tools to get Orchard Lake lines flowing. Whether there’s significant buildup on the walls of your pipes slowing things down or a huge clog that’s stuck in the middle of your pipes, we’ll start by inspecting the line with a video camera, to best understand exactly what it looks like inside. A hefty blockage calls for our powersnake, a flexible metal cord with a rotating blade on the end that can maneuver through your pipes and cut through tough clogs such as baby wipes, grease and even tree roots. After that, we’ll finish it off with our Zoom Jetting®, a high-pressured water jet that can blast away anything that might be building up or sitting in your line – it’s a power washer for your pipes!

Don’t wait until morning for your emergency, in the hopes of trying to save a buck. Instead, give us a call at (248) 243-8368 or schedule an appointment online now!

Our FAQs

  • To prevent clogs, avoid putting the following down your kitchen sink:

    • Grease, oil, or fat (FOG).
    • Coffee grounds.
    • Eggshells or food scraps.
    • Fibrous vegetables (like celery or corn husks).
    • Pasta, rice, or other starchy foods.
    • Regularly clean drains using a natural drain cleaner like baking soda and vinegar.
    • Install drain screens or traps to catch hair and debris.
    • Avoid flushing non-biodegradable items down the toilet.
    • Be mindful of what you pour down the kitchen sink (e.g., no grease or oils).
    • Have professional inspections performed periodically.
  • A cleanout is a pipe fitting that provides easy access for drain cleaning. If your plumbing system doesn't already have one, Zoom Drain can install a cleanout, which can save you time and money when clearing future blockages.

  • Sewer lining is a trenchless method of repairing damaged pipes by inserting a liner into the existing pipe. The liner hardens into a new pipe, sealing any cracks or leaks. It’s less invasive and often more cost-effective than traditional sewer replacement.

  • Signs that your sewer line may need repair or replacement include:

    • Persistent slow drains or backups.
    • Unpleasant odors coming from your drains.
    • Wet spots or patches of lush greenery in your yard (indicating leaks).
    • Gurgling sounds in your toilet or sinks. Zoom Drain provides comprehensive sewer repair, lining, and replacement services.
  • A malfunctioning sewage pump may show signs like:

    • Sewage backup or slow draining.
    • Foul odors or gurgling noises.
    • Inconsistent or no pump operation. Regular inspections and maintenance can prevent costly failures.
  • Signs of sump pump issues include:

    • Water pooling around the sump pump area.
    • Strange noises when the pump operates.
    • Pump not turning on or off properly.
    • Water not being pumped out effectively. Zoom Drain can inspect and provide repair or replacement services.
  • Jetting from the roof vent involves sending high-pressure water through your drain lines starting from the roof vent, which clears out blockages from the top of the pipes. This technique can reach clogs that are deep within the system, particularly for stubborn, hard-to-reach blockages.

  • Hydrojetting is a technique where high-pressure water is used to clean drains. It’s especially effective for removing grease, debris, and tree roots. This method is ideal for tougher clogs that can't be easily cleared with standard tools.

  • Zoom Drain uses advanced tools like:

    • Hydrojetting machines for powerful, high-pressure water cleaning.
    • Sewer cameras to inspect and locate blockages deep within your pipes.
    • Locators to precisely find and identify issues underground or behind walls.
    • Traditional augers for mechanical drain clearing when necessary.
