Most drain cleaning in Toronto is done blind — a plumber snakes the line, the water goes down, and the invoice gets paid. The problem is that snaking often just punches a hole through the blockage instead of removing it, which is why the same drain clogs again a month later.
We do it differently. Every drain cleaning job starts with understanding what's actually in the pipe — grease, roots, scale buildup, or a structural issue — and finishes with a camera pass to confirm the line is genuinely clear, not just temporarily open.
Our drain cleaning methods
- Hydro jetting — high-pressure water that strips grease, sludge, and scale from pipe walls
- Cable snaking — mechanical cutting for hair, debris, and minor root intrusion
- Camera-verified inspection — confirming the line is clear before we leave
- Root cutting for tree-root intrusion in older clay laterals
Signs you need drain cleaning now
- Water backing up in a tub or sink when another fixture runs
- Gurgling sounds from drains after flushing
- Slow-draining kitchen sink despite using a plunger
- Recurring clogs in the same drain every few weeks
- Sewer smell near floor drains or in the basement
