Frequently Asked Questions
Drain Cleaning questions from Utah homeowners — answered straight.
How much does drain cleaning cost?
A standard kitchen or bathroom drain clearing starts around $150 to $250. Main line cleaning runs $250 to $450. Hydro-jetting — which uses high-pressure water to scour the pipe walls — typically starts around $350 and goes up with pipe length and access. We quote you before we start.
What causes recurring drain clogs?
The most common culprits are grease and soap scum buildup in kitchen and bathroom lines, hair accumulation in shower drains, and mineral scale from Utah's hard water narrowing pipe interiors over time. Tree root intrusion into main lines is also common in older Utah County neighborhoods. A camera inspection tells us exactly what we are dealing with.
Is hydro-jetting safe for old pipes?
Hydro-jetting is safe for most pipes in good structural condition, including cast iron and older galvanized lines. We always run a camera first to check pipe condition — if a line is already cracked or corroded, high pressure can make things worse. When pipes are too fragile for jetting, we use standard snaking methods instead.
How often should drains be professionally cleaned?
For most households, a main line cleaning every two to three years is a reasonable preventative schedule. If you have mature trees near your sewer line, annual inspections are worth the investment. Kitchen grease lines in restaurants and commercial kitchens should be serviced much more frequently — typically quarterly.
Can I use chemical drain cleaners instead?
Chemical cleaners can dissolve soft organic clogs temporarily but they do not address buildup on pipe walls, root intrusion, or scale. Repeated use of caustic chemicals weakens older pipes and can damage gaskets and finishes. They also create a hazard for our technicians if we need to open the drain afterward. For anything beyond a minor slow drain, professional cleaning is the safer and more effective option.
