Drain Cleaning & Repair
Cleaning the drain, and fixing the pipe
We clean kitchen, bathroom, tub, shower, floor and laundry drains, and the main line they all feed.
A slow drain is a warning.
A backed-up drain is the same warning, only louder.
Most of the time, a snake or a drain machine clears the clog and the drain runs normally again.
Sometimes the clog keeps coming back, and that usually means the pipe itself has a problem.
Then the camera goes in, and we tell you whether cleaning or repair is the answer.
If the pipe has rusted through or broken, we replace the bad section.
From a real Authentic Plumbing jobWhat it covers
Drain Cleaning & Repair, covered end to end.
- 01
Kitchen and bath drains
Grease, soap and hair build up in the trap and the line behind it. We clear sinks, tubs and showers.
- 02
Floor and laundry drains
Floor drains and washer standpipes catch lint, sand and sludge. We clear them back to the main.
- 03
Main line backups
When several drains back up together, the main is blocked. We open it and find out why it clogged.
- 04
Camera for repeat clogs
A drain that clogs again and again gets a camera look, so we fix the cause, not just the symptom.
- 05
Cast iron to PVC
Rusted-through cast-iron drain pipe is pulled out and replaced with PVC, indoors or across the yard.
- 06
Under the slab and yard
Pipe under the floor or across the lawn gets reached, replaced and closed up. The sod goes back.
The honest answer
When cleaning is enough, and when it is not
Cleaning is enough when a clog is the whole problem, such as grease, hair, soap or a wad of wipes.
Once the clog is gone and the line runs clear, there is nothing more to fix.
Cleaning is not enough when the same drain clogs again soon, or when the pipe is cracked, sagging or rusted through.
In those cases the camera shows what is wrong, and hydro jetting can follow if the line is sound.
If the pipe is past saving, we replace the bad section and explain why before we start.

Why Miami drains give out
Many older Miami homes still drain through the original cast-iron pipe, and some of it runs under the slab.
Cast iron rusts from the inside, and over time the wall can flake, narrow and eventually rust through.
A rusted-through pipe leaks wastewater into the ground, and that is not a clog a snake can fix.
Roots from large trees can find a joint in a yard line, and heavy summer rain tends to show every weak spot.
PVC does not rust, which is why we use it when failed cast iron comes out.

How it goes
From the call to running water.
- 01
Call, any hour
Tell us which drain is slow or backed up and whether more than one is acting up. We are open 24 hours.
- 02
Clear the clog
We clean the drain with a snake or a drain machine, then run water to confirm it flows.
- 03
Look inside if needed
If the clog returns or the line is old, the camera shows whether the pipe needs more than cleaning.
- 04
Repair or replace
If the pipe has failed, we replace it with PVC and close up the floor or lawn we opened.

What causes most drain clogs?
Grease, wipes, hair, soap scum, mineral scale and roots.
In old cast-iron pipe, rust scale also catches whatever passes by.
How do I know it needs repair, not just cleaning?
A clog that keeps coming back, a sewage smell or a soggy spot in the yard are signs.
The camera shows the pipe, and we tell you what we see.
Can you replace cast-iron drain pipe under the slab?
Yes.
We have pulled rusted-through cast iron out from under the floor and replaced it with PVC.

Do you clean drains at night or on weekends?
