Advanced Drain Cleaning Methods for a Clear Flow

At Helms Plumbing and Drains, our drain cleaning service is more than clearing a quick blockage. It’s about delivering long-lasting results without harsh chemicals or risky DIY attempts. Our team uses a combination of proven methods to restore proper flow.

We do a camera inspection to locate hidden pipe issues or recurring blockages. Cable clearing breaks through tough clogs, while hydro jetting removes grease, mineral buildup, and scale with high-pressure water. For debris that can’t be washed away, we use careful scooping and manual removal to fully clean the line and restore proper drainage.

Common Drain Problems We Solve

Our experienced team addresses a wide variety of drain issues in homes and businesses, such as:

Kitchen sink clogs: Often caused by grease, food scraps, and soap buildup.
Bathroom drain backups: Hair, soap, and toothpaste residue can slow drains.
Basement and floor drains: Standing water or backups may indicate foundation drainage problems.
Crawl space drain issues: Moisture or debris in crawl spaces can cause blockages and impact your plumbing system.
Commercial drain clogs: Grease, debris, or heavy usage in commercial environments can lead to frequent blockages and backups.

Preventive Drain Maintenance for Long-Term Performance

Preventing clogs is easier than repairing them. With regular cleaning, plumbing repairs, maintenance, and water treatment services, property owners can avoid emergency situations. Key preventive measures include:

Regular inspections and cleaning schedules to maintain pipe flow
Early detection of slow-flow issues and potential blockages
Prevent grease and debris accumulation in commercial drains

Frequently Asked Questions about Drain Cleaning Services

How often should I have my drains professionally cleaned?

Drain cleaning frequency depends on usage and pipe condition. We recommend scheduling a professional cleaning every 12–18 months to prevent buildup and reduce the risk of clogs or pipe damage.

Can tree roots cause drain blockages in my property?

Yes, tree roots can penetrate sewer lines and underground pipes, causing slow drains or backups. Professional drain inspection and cleaning can detect root intrusion before it leads to major plumbing issues.

Is it safe to use chemical drain cleaners in my home?

Chemical drain cleaners can damage pipes over time and may not fully remove blockages. Our professional drain cleaners use mechanical and hydro-jet methods, avoiding chemicals while thoroughly clearing the drains and pipes.

What should I do if my drains are repeatedly clogging?

Repeated clogs often indicate a deeper issue, such as pipe damage, misalignment, or buildup. Scheduling a professional inspection and drain cleaning helps identify the underlying problem and prevent future blockages.
