Drain & Sewer Line Cleaning Services in Philadelphia

How Do Plumbers Unclog Drains & Sewer Lines?

Plumbers use different tools, depending on the size, location, and cause of the clog. They might use a plumbing snake, an auger, or high-powered water jetting to unclog a drain. Some plumbers might use a chemical drain cleaner. We do not recommend this, though, as it can damage and corrode your pipes over time.

  • PowerSnake - Our drain professionals use ZOOM PowerSnake to clear clogs from even hard-to-reach drains. The ZOOM PowerSnake has a flexible, durable cable that our technicians maneuver through drains to find the source of the clog. With a small, sharp blade at the end, the ZOOM PowerSnake slices through difficult clogs. It is useful for breaking apart blockages found in your pipes and plumbing system. The PowerSnake is not only effective and versatile but also fast. Our technicians use it in a majority of drain cleaning jobs we perform.

  • ZOOM Jetting® - Sometimes our technicians encounter clogs too thick or resilient for the PowerSnake. That's when we turn to the ZOOM Jetting® system. Like the PowerSnake, this high-pressure hose maneuvers through drains to bust through blockages. The ZOOM Jetting® system provides the power we need to completely clean out the inside of your drain. This state-of-the-art service will also help prevent future clogs from forming!

Our drain specialists are experts at clearing the toughest clogs. We clean more drains each year than many general plumbers clean in their entire career. That's why we often get calls from other plumbing contractors or customers referred to us by a plumber. Choose us for drain cleaning near you even other plumbers trust!
