Drain Cleaning in Atlanta

Slow drains are almost always caused by buildup or blockage. In Atlanta, tree roots are the most common culprit for main drains. For fixture drains, it is hair, soap, or sediment. The plumber we connect you with has the tools to clear either.

Why this comes up in Atlanta

Atlanta's clay sewer laterals and mature tree canopy make root intrusion a signature problem. Roots exploit small cracks in 50-year-old lines and expand as they seek moisture. Hydrojetting can blast roots out, but the underlying crack lets them return. The plumber we route you to knows when jetting buys time and when you need a lateral replacement. A camera inspection shows the line and roots clearly.

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.

drain cleaning questions in Atlanta

How much does hydrojetting cost?
Jetting prices depend on the line length and how severe the blockage is. The plumber we route you to quotes based on a camera inspection. Roots in a short run of line cost less than roots in a 100-foot lateral.
Will jetting kill the roots permanently?
Jetting clears the roots from the line. It does not kill the tree or stop new roots from growing toward the line. If the line has a crack, roots will return in months or years. The plumber we connect you with will tell you if the line needs repair after jetting.
What if the main line is blocked but I do not see any sewage backup?
Sometimes the blockage is in a part of the line that drains slowly. You might notice water backing up into a basement drain or a slow gurgle from toilets. The plumber we route you to can snake or jet the line to clear it before sewage enters your home.
