Meet The Owner Of Zoom Drain Northwest Jersey

A New Jersey Native With A Passion For Developing Career Paths

Zoom Drain of Northwest Jersey is proudly owned and operated by Kevin Hussey, an alumnus of Centenary University who earned his Master’s Degree in Marketing. Born and raised in the region, Hussey loves everything his slice of New Jersey offers, from the people to the parks.

“Our area is just a good place to live,” said Hussey. “We’re within an hour of New York City and an hour and 15 minutes of the Jersey Shore. But everything you could want is here – quality education, good people, great cuisine, beautiful parks and incredible shops. This is home!”

After earning his Master’s, Hussey worked for a company that specialized in fire protection systems, before moving into the insurance industry. For his more than two decade stint, he flourished, thanks in large part to a passion for relationship-building with his customers, thriving on that personal touch – so much so it sparked Hussey to want to build his own culture.

Hussey found that culture in Zoom Drain, combining the family-like atmosphere with the ability to help those in his community who might be dealing with not-so-fun wastewater problems. Building a local brand synonymous with drains and sewers, that can be trusted for 24/7 reliable and high quality service, with that personal touch, really checked off all the boxes for Hussey.

“I want to be the go-to person in my territory for providing unsurpassed drain and sewer service while exceeding our customers’ expectations,” Hussey added. “When they think, ‘We have a clogged drain,’ I want them to think of Zoom Drain – and my name and the names of my team.”

Hussey wants more than just that, however. He wants to create career paths for employees, only further entrenching himself with the local community. Mentorship is important, it helped him get to where he’s at, and he wants to make sure he’s focused on providing that to others.

“I want to be part of something bigger than just a job,” Hussey said. “To be able to help the community, employ people and create career paths for them – that’s our goal. I hate being called ‘boss,’ I like being called ‘partner,’ because I believe that nobody can do it alone. That’s the culture I want to create and the culture that Zoom Drain has – and that’s why it works.”

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.
