$99 DRAIN CLEANING SPECIAL

$99 Stoppage

  • This is a “per stoppage” rate.
  • This applies only to residential stoppages.
  • Additional charge if caustic chemicals were used in the drain line
  • Applies to all appointments run during normal business hours 7 AM - 7 PM, 7 Days a week (Yes we can clear that Sunday or Saturday stoppage so you don’t have to miss work)
  • Excludes major holidays
  • Stoppage must be fixable by cabling method. Rate does not include jetting and other advanced methods.
  • Stoppage must be reasonably accessible. We cannot place our plumbers in hazardous positions such as roofs and crawlspaces.
  • We do not go through roof vents. This is a very effective way to cause roof leaks but an ineffective way of clearing stoppages.

Advantages of Properly Installed Clean-Out

  • May prevent flooding inside home
  • Lower “per stoppage” cost
  • Easier to locate the sewer line
  • Makes stoppages accessible to regular-size blades and cables
  • Enables access by Hydro Jet if needed
  • Closer to stoppage with fewer turns, giving cable added strength for better cleaning
  • No messy drain cables and machines inside your home

FAQ’s About Stoppages and Roof Vents

  • Does not thoroughly clear blockages
  • Creates the potential for roof leaks
  • Cannot use the right size blade
  • Should never go through a smaller pipe to clear a pipe of larger diameter. This is an excellent way to get the cable stuck in the drain line
  • Drain vents use non-directional fittings which are different than actual drain lines. Very often this results in trapped cables.
  • The vents are too far from the stoppage. Working through too many turns reduces the strength and effectiveness of the cable.
  • It is unnecessarily dangerous and we don’t want anybody getting hurt.
