A slow drain is usually a clog building up over time. In kitchens it is grease and food scraps. In bathrooms it is hair and soap. In basement floor drains and laundry lines it is lint, silt and sometimes roots. When several fixtures back up at once, or the floor drain overflows when the washer empties, the problem is usually farther down in the main line. We clear the clog at the source. Depending on the line, that means:

- cabling the drain
- clearing the main line
- running a camera when we need to see what is causing repeat clogs

If we find a broken or root-filled pipe, we tell you straight and explain your options, including [sewer line repair](/services/sewer-line-repair/). We clean drains for homes and commercial properties throughout Cincinnati, Sharonville, West Chester, Mason and the rest of our service area. If a drain is backing up after hours, call 513-771-7588\. We take emergency calls 24/7.

## Common questions

Are chemical drain cleaners safe for my pipes?

They can damage older pipes and seldom clear a clog completely. They also leave caustic water sitting in the line, which makes the job riskier for whoever opens the drain next. A cable or a call to us is the safer route.

Why does my basement floor drain back up when the washer runs?

That usually means the main line is partly blocked. Water from the washer has nowhere to go, so it comes up at the lowest drain in the house. Clearing the main line, and sometimes a camera inspection, gets to the cause.

When is a clog a sign of a sewer line problem?

If the same drains keep clogging, several fixtures back up together, or you see roots come out of the line, the problem may be in the sewer pipe itself. A camera inspection shows whether it is a clog or a cracked, sagging or root-filled pipe.
