What changes the price
- Which line. One fixture is the simplest job. A main line needs a bigger machine and more time.
- Access. An accessible cleanout or house trap keeps the price at the base rate.
- Method. Cabling clears most clogs. Jetting cleans the pipe wall and costs more.
- Timing. Nights, weekends and holidays add $150.

Common questions
Why don't you give an exact price over the phone?
Every job is different. Access, the length of the line and the cause of the clog all change the work. We publish starting prices, and the technician confirms your price on site before any work starts.
Why do your prices include a camera?
On main lines and jetting, the camera shows what caused the problem and whether it will come back. You see what was wrong, not just a bill.
What makes a job cost more?
No accessible cleanout, a very long run, or a line that needs both cabling and jetting. If that comes up on site, you get the new price before we continue.
Is the price confirmed before work starts?
Yes. The technician looks at the job and confirms your price before starting. Nothing starts until you say yes.
What do roof drains, stacks and catch basins cost?
Those depend on access, length and the amount of material, so the technician prices them on site before any work starts.
Why not advertise a $49 price like some companies?
Because the real price of a drain job is rarely $49. We would rather publish what jobs actually cost and stick to it.
