Advanced Techniques & Reliable Solutions

We employ advanced techniques such as hydro-jetting and pipe relining to address sewer problems comprehensively. Hydro-jetting involves using high-pressure water jets to clear out stubborn blockages and clean pipes thoroughly. This method is effective for removing accumulated debris, tree roots, and other obstructions.

Pipe relining, on the other hand, offers a trenchless solution that eliminates the need for extensive excavation. This method involves coating the interior of existing pipes with a durable resin, sealing any cracks or leaks, and extending the life of the pipes. By choosing these innovative solutions, we not only save you time and reduce inconvenience, but we also protect your property's landscaping and structures.

  • Hydro-Jetting: Removes obstructions using high-pressure water.
  • Pipe Relining: In-situ repair method that strengthens existing pipes.

Beyond these primary methods, we also engage in thorough inspections using cutting-edge camera technology that allows us to visualize the internal condition of your sewer lines. This technology provides a clear view that ensures accurate diagnosis of complex issues, preventing guesswork and enabling us to deliver precise repair solutions. Additionally, our technicians undergo continuous training, keeping up to date with the latest methods and industry standards to ensure optimal service delivery.

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).

  • 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).

  • 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.
