Drain Cleaning in Sacramento
Slow or backed-up drains in Sacramento are usually caused by tree roots invading the old clay sewer laterals or by sediment buildup from moderate water hardness. The plumber we connect you with has the tools to clear the clog and determine whether the line needs repair.
Why this comes up in Sacramento
Sacramento's mature trees have decades to find cracks in the old clay sewer lines that run under the city. A slow drain becomes a full blockage as roots expand and pull soil into the pipe. Hydro-jetting can clear the roots, but if the line is cracked, they return within months or years. The plumber we route you to uses a camera to show you the damage and recommend whether jetting is a temporary fix or whether the line needs replacement.
Do this before you call
Stop pouring chemical drain cleaner down it. It rarely clears a real blockage, and it makes the plumber's job more dangerous and more expensive once they have to open the trap.
