Drain Cleaning in Hoboken

Drain cleaning clears the slow sinks, backed-up tubs and stopped laundry or main drains that leave water standing where it should be running away. It starts with finding where the line is blocked.

Call, tell us which drain is giving you trouble and how it behaves, and we will arrange a free estimate for getting it clear again.

Drains we clear

Kitchen sinks

Kitchen sink lines pick up grease, soap film and food scraps, and the narrowed pipe slows the water until it stops. Clearing it takes a cable or a flush, and the trap gets checked while it is open.

Bathroom sinks, tubs and showers

Hair catches on its way down a tub, shower or bathroom sink drain and binds with soap into a plug. Pulling that plug out brings the water back to its normal pace.

Laundry and floor drains

Standing water in a laundry tub or a floor drain means the blockage lies further down the line, beyond what you can reach. A cable is fed in through the drain until it breaks through.

The main line

Slow water at several fixtures, or a toilet that gurgles when the washer empties, points to the main line. Clearing it is followed by a camera look, which shows whether the pipe is sound.

Clearing a stoppage needs no permit

Under the state code, ordinary plumbing maintenance does not require a permit application, an inspection or a notice to the enforcing agency, and clearance of stoppages is on the list of what counts as ordinary maintenance.

Keeping drains running

Grease, flushed wipes and hair can all build up inside a drain. A strainer in the shower and the kitchen sink catches some of it, and only toilet paper belongs in the toilet.

See the sewer line repair page if a drain clogs again soon after clearing, or the fixture repair page if the trouble is at one sink or tub. The homepage lists everything else we handle.
