If multiple fixtures (kitchen, bath, basement) are slow or the floor drain backs up, it’s usually a main sewer line clog. One slow sink or tub is typically a fixture line issue. A quick camera drain inspection confirms it.

Skip harsh chemicals. For small clogs, try a wet/dry vacuum or plunger. If it returns or won’t clear, professional drain snaking or hydro-jetting is safer and more effective—especially on grease or roots.

Snaking quickly opens a path through hair/soft debris (great for sinks, tubs). Hydro-jettingscrubs pipe walls clean and is best for main lines with grease, sludge, or tree roots common in older clay laterals across Toronto, Etobicoke, and Mississauga.

Typical ranges: $149–$289 for fixture snaking and $349–$749 for main drain cleaning (snaking or jetting), depending on access, length, and clog severity. We confirm upfront, flat-rate pricing on-site—no hidden fees.

Yes. Roots seek moisture year-round and invade through joints in older clay or cast-iron pipes (common in North York, Scarborough, East York). We cut roots and hydro-jet, then recommend trenchless CIPP lining to stop regrowth.

Most aren’t. They can warp PVC, corrode metal, and remain hazardous in traps. Mechanical cleaning and jetting clear the line without chemical damage and are safer for your home and the environment.

Yes—same-day emergency service across Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Markham, Oakville, Burlington, Etobicoke, North York, and Scarborough. For basement backups or total blockages, we priority dispatch.

Absolutely. Our technician can provide before/after video from a CCTV drain camera and attach photos to your digital invoice for records or warranty claims.

Install an accessible cleanout, use hair catchers, keep grease and wipes out of drains, and schedule preventive jetting for heavy-use lines (kitchens, restaurants, rental properties). Ask about a backwater valve to protect against city sewer surges.

If the blockage is inside your unit’s branch line (e.g., your kitchen stack tie-in), the owner is usually responsible. If it’s in the building stack or main, it’s typically the condo corporation. A camera inspection identifies location so the right party handles repairs quickly.
