A clogged drain might seem like a minor inconvenience at first. Water drains slowly from your sink or shower, so you think maybe it just needs a plunger. But slow drains often indicate something bigger is happening inside your pipes. Hair, soap buildup, grease, mineral deposits, and other debris gradually accumulate in your drainage system. Over time, this creates a blockage that gets worse and worse.
When you ignore a slow drain, you risk a complete blockage that shuts down the entire line. A backup can damage your property, create unsanitary conditions, and become expensive to fix. That's why it makes sense to address drainage problems early.
Different parts of your plumbing system fail for different reasons. Kitchen drains often clog from grease and food particles that solidify inside the pipes. Bathroom drains accumulate hair and soap residue. Laundry drains can get blocked by lint buildup. In older homes, mineral deposits and rust inside the pipes reduce water flow. Tree roots can even grow into sewer lines and cause major blockages.
Hard water, common in the Denver area, deposits minerals that restrict flow over time. Cast iron pipes used in older homes corrode from the inside, creating rough surfaces where debris catches and builds up. The good news is that once we clear the blockage and restore proper flow, you'll notice the difference immediately.
When we arrive, we'll ask questions about the problem. Is only one drain slow, or multiple drains throughout your home? When did you first notice the issue? Have you tried any DIY fixes? Then we perform a visual inspection of the accessible drain areas. For deeper problems, we may use a camera system to see inside the pipes and pinpoint exactly where the blockage is located and what's causing it.
Not every clog requires the same solution. A simple hair clog in a bathroom sink might come out with a hand auger. Stubborn grease or mineral buildup in kitchen drains often needs more aggressive treatment. For tough blockages, we use professional-grade drain snakes or hydro jetting, which uses high-pressure water to blast away buildup and restore full pipe diameter. We'll explain what we find and what method we recommend before we start.
Once we start, we work until the drain flows freely again. We don't just punch a hole through the blockage and leave you with partial flow. We clean it completely so you get maximum water velocity and no future problems with that same clog reforming quickly. For sewer line repairs or serious blockages, hydro jetting scours the interior walls of the pipe, removing years of buildup.
After cleaning, we run water through to confirm proper drainage. We'll show you what we found if it's something visual, explain what caused the problem, and discuss any preventative steps you can take. If we found signs of pipe damage, cracks, or other issues during inspection, we'll let you know about those and discuss pipe repair options.
We know you don't want to wait around with a clogged drain. We offer same-day appointments and can usually arrive within hours of your call. For emergencies, we dispatch technicians 24/7, even on weekends and holidays.

Many drain problems are connected to other plumbing issues. If you're experiencing drainage problems, you might also need:
Clogs or slow drains throughout your entire home can indicate a problem with your main sewer line. Tree roots, cracks, and misaligned pipes all restrict flow. We inspect and repair sewer lines quickly.
Corroded or damaged pipes inside your home can cause recurring clogs and slow drainage. If inspection reveals pipe problems, pipe repair or replacement may be needed to eliminate drainage issues permanently.
Sometimes what looks like a drainage problem is actually a hidden leak. Our leak detection service uses modern equipment to find water escaping from pipes before damage gets serious.
A severe clog that creates a backup is a plumbing emergency. We provide emergency plumbing repair service around the clock to address urgent drainage and backup situations.
