Inspection and Assessment

Our team will conduct a thorough inspection of your floor drain to identify the cause and extent of the clog. This assessment allows us to determine the most effective cleaning method.

Debris Removal

We begin by removing any visible debris, such as dirt, hair, or objects, that may be obstructing the floor drain. This step improves access to the drain and sets the stage for a more thorough cleaning.

Drain Snaking

Using specialized drain snakes or augers, we navigate through the drain pipes to break up and remove stubborn clogs. Our drain snakes employ a rotating motion that dislodges blockages, restoring proper water flow.

High-Pressure Water Jetting

In cases of severe or persistent clogs, we utilize high-pressure water jetting. This technique involves directing a powerful stream of water into the drain to flush out accumulated debris, grease, and other substances that impede drainage.

Inspection and Testing
