Our Drain Cleaning Process

01

Assessment

We locate the clog using camera inspection or by running water to observe flow and backup patterns.

02

Snaking

A drain snake (auger) is used to break through or retrieve simple clogs in sink, tub, and toilet drains.

03

Hydro-Jetting

For stubborn grease buildup, root intrusion, or main line clogs, high-pressure hydro-jetting scours the pipe walls completely clean.

04

Final Test

Water is run to confirm full flow restoration before leaving. We recommend and explain any findings that indicate larger issues.

Drain Cleaning FAQ for Baton Rouge Homeowners

How often should Baton Rouge homeowners get drain cleaning?
Given Baton Rouge's year-round heat and humidity — avg high 91°f in summer with extreme dewpoints, most homeowners benefit from drain cleaning at least once a year. Year-round termite monitoring (one of worst termite cities in the US) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Baton Rouge most need drain cleaning?
Brick ranch homes throughout East Baton Rouge Parish and Pier-and-beam homes elevated above flood risk in older neighborhoods are the most common home types in Baton Rouge and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Why does my drain keep getting clogged?
Recurring clogs usually indicate a partial blockage deeper in the line, root intrusion, a grease-coated drain, or a drain that needs hydro-jetting rather than just snaking.
Should I use chemical drain cleaners?
Chemical cleaners can clear minor clogs temporarily but damage pipes over time, especially PVC and older cast iron. They also don't remove the full blockage, so clogs return. Professional snaking or jetting is safer and more effective.
What is hydro-jetting?
Hydro-jetting uses water at up to 4,000 PSI to scour the interior of drain pipes completely clean — removing grease, scale, roots, and debris that snaking alone can't eliminate.
Can you clear a main sewer line blockage?
Yes. Main sewer line blockages require professional equipment — a camera to locate the blockage and either a heavy-duty snake or hydro-jet to clear it.
