Drain Cleaning: Kitchen, Bathroom & Floor Drains:
At Affordable Drains, we specialize in clearing and cleaning all types of residential and commercial drains. From clogged kitchen sinks and slow-draining bathtubs to backed-up floor drains and overflowing storm drains, our experienced team is equipped to handle it all—quickly, cleanly, and affordably.
Kitchen, Bathroom & Floor Drains
Kitchen Drain Cleaning: Grease, food scraps, and soap residue are common culprits behind kitchen sink clogs. We use professional-grade tools to break through stubborn blockages and restore complete drainage, without damaging your plumbing.
Bathroom Drain Cleaning: Hair, soap scum, and hygiene products can cause frustrating slowdowns in your shower, tub, or sink. Our drain cleaning services keep your bathroom flowing properly and help prevent future buildup.
Floor & Utility Drain Cleaning: Basement, laundry room, and garage floor drains are essential for preventing flooding and water damage. Whether it’s sludge, dirt, or debris, we can clear it and keep your drains running free.
Storm & Sewer Drain Cleaning: Stormwater systems and sewer lines often get clogged with leaves, roots, and sediment. Our powerful hydro jetting and snaking methods help keep these critical systems operating smoothly, especially in older homes prone to root intrusion.
Preventative Maintenance Plans: If you live in an older home, tree roots invading your pipes can be a recurring—and costly—issue. Our annual maintenance plans provide peace of mind with regular inspections and cleanings designed to catch problems early and prevent expensive repairs down the road.

Our Drain Cleaning Methods
At Affordable Drains, we tailor our approach based on the type of clog and the condition of your plumbing system.
Our techniques include:
Snaking (Drain Auger): A flexible cable with a cutting head is fed into the pipe to break up and remove clogs caused by hair, food, or buildup.
Rooter Service: We use powerful rooter machines with spinning blades to cut through tough blockages, including roots or hardened grease.
Hydro Jetting: For deep, persistent buildup, our hydro jetting system uses high-pressure water streams to thoroughly clean pipe walls and remove stubborn debris.
Camera Inspections: For recurring problems, we can conduct a live HD video inspection of your pipes to locate and diagnose the exact cause of your clog.
Every service is performed with care and precision—no shortcuts, no damage to your system, and no hidden fees.
Why Regular Drain Cleaning Matters
Even if you’re not currently experiencing a full clog, annual or biannual drain cleaning can prevent major plumbing issues down the road. Especially in homes with large families, older plumbing, or heavy kitchen use, routine maintenance helps avoid emergency backups, property damage, and costly repairs. We also offer preventative maintenance plans for homeowners, property managers, and commercial clients who want to keep their systems flowing year-round.
This immediate response minimizes potential damage, reduces costly repairs, and keeps your drain system running smoothly without interruption. Ultimately 24/7 service is essential for maintaining a safe, clean and functional environment.
FAQ – Drain Cleaning Services
For most households, once a year is sufficient. Restaurants or commercial kitchens may need service every 3–6 months, depending on grease usage.
Chemical drain cleaners are generally not safe to use. They may provide a temporary fix, but the harsh chemicals can damage older pipes, corrode plumbing, and harm the environment. They can also be dangerous to handle and leave behind toxic residue. A safer and more effective solution is to have your drains cleaned by a professional who uses the right equipment to clear clogs without risking damage to your plumbing.
A drain that keeps clogging is often a sign of buildup deep in the line, grease or debris that regular plunging cannot clear, or even a more serious issue like a damaged pipe.
Affordable Drains uses professional-grade equipment to find the cause and clear the blockage safely. We also provide camera inspections to see exactly what is happening inside your pipes.
