FAQs
What types of drain blockages can your Pelham plumbing team clear?
Our licensed plumbers can handle everything from simple hair and soap scum clogs in bathroom sinks to grease-packed kitchen lines, tree-root intrusions in main sewer laterals, and stubborn scale buildup in older cast-iron pipes. We carry a full arsenal of professional cable machines, hydro-jetters, and enzymatic treatments to match the right tool to each blockage and restore full flow quickly.
How quickly can you respond to a drain emergency in Pelham?
We provide 24/7 emergency service throughout Pelham and surrounding Westchester County. A technician is always on call, and in most cases we arrive within 60–90 minutes of your call—often sooner for severe back-ups that threaten property damage. Our trucks are fully stocked, so we can begin clearing the line immediately without return trips.
Do you offer non-invasive options like hydro-jetting instead of digging up my yard?
Yes. Whenever possible, we use trenchless techniques such as high-pressure hydro-jetting and pipe-lining. Hydro-jetting scours the inside diameter of the pipe with up to 4,000 psi of water, removing roots, scale, and grease without excavation. If the pipe is structurally sound, this can eliminate the need to dig. For cracked or deteriorated lines, we also offer cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining to create a new pipe within the old one through a small access point.
How much does professional drain opening cost?
Pricing depends on the location of the clog, pipe size, and the method required. Basic interior drain snaking typically ranges from $150 to $250. Main sewer line clearing averages $350 to $650, while hydro-jetting or camera inspections add modest fees. After a quick on-site assessment we give a firm, upfront quote, and there are never hidden charges for overtime, travel, or ‘extra feet’ of cable.
Can you prevent future clogs once the line is open?
Absolutely. After clearing the blockage we can run a high-resolution video camera to verify the pipe is clean and spot any issues that could trigger future problems, such as minor root ingress or bellied sections. We’ll suggest proactive solutions—routine jetting, enzymatic drain maintenance, or installing a root-barrier treatment—so you stay clog-free and avoid repeat service calls.
Is your drain cleaning service safe for older plumbing systems?
Yes. We tailor our approach to the age and material of your piping. For fragile, 50-plus-year-old cast-iron or clay lines we use lower-torque sectional cables and controlled-pressure jetting heads to prevent breakage. We carry protective liners for porcelain fixtures and eco-friendly cleaning agents that won’t corrode metal or PVC. Your plumbing system will be left in better shape than we found it—fully flowing and damage-free.
