Drain Cleaning

Slow or completely blocked drains are one of the most common plumbing complaints in Long Beach homes and businesses. Whether it's a backed-up kitchen sink packed with grease buildup, a bathroom drain choked with hair and soap scum, or a main sewer line blocked by tree roots, Long Beach Plumbers uses the right tool for every situation — from electric drain snakes to high-pressure hydro-jetting machines that scour pipe walls clean.

Our technicians diagnose the severity of the blockage before choosing a method, ensuring we don't just punch a hole through debris and call it done. Hydro-jetting delivers water at up to 4,000 PSI through a specialized nozzle, completely flushing grease, sediment, and organic buildup from 2-inch branch lines all the way up to 6-inch sewer mains. For older cast-iron or clay pipes common in Long Beach's mid-century housing stock, we adjust pressure to protect pipe integrity.

After clearing the line, we recommend a brief camera inspection to confirm the blockage is fully removed and to check for any underlying pipe damage that could cause recurring clogs. Regular drain maintenance — especially for restaurant grease traps and high-use residential kitchens — can prevent emergency backups and costly water damage repairs down the road.
