What moves the price

  • Access. This is the big one. An outside cleanout means we cable the main faster and cheaper. No cleanout means going through a roof vent or pulling a toilet — a bigger job. (If you're tired of paying the difference, we install exterior cleanouts, and it pays for itself fast.)
  • What's blocking it. Hair and paper punch clear easily. Grease, roots, and scale fight back and sometimes need the jetter instead of the cable.
  • Where the clog sits. A P-trap clog is minutes. A blockage 80 feet down the main line is a different machine and a different job.
  • How often it recurs. If we've cabled the same line twice, the pipe is telling you something. That's when the camera earns its keep — see sewer camera costs.
  • When you call. After-hours emergencies add a stated response fee. You hear it on the phone, never discover it on the invoice.

Cable, jet, or camera?

Cable (snake). The cable punches through the clog and restores flow. For a one-off clog — kid flushed a toy, too much paper, hairball — this is the right call and the most affordable fix. Our cable work carries a 30-day warranty.

Hydro jetting. The jetter scrubs the pipe wall clean with high-pressure water. Grease-caked kitchen lines and root-invaded mains don't stay fixed with a cable — the cable opens a hole, the buildup around it re-clogs in months. Jetting resets the pipe to bare wall, which is why it carries a longer warranty (60–90 days on our combo packages).

Camera — FREE with SCOPEFREE on any cleaning. If the same drain has clogged more than twice in a year, something structural is going on: roots at a joint, a bellied section holding water, or a cracked pipe catching debris. The camera shows exactly which one — and turns "keep paying every few months" into a real repair decision made with evidence, not guesswork.

The honest ladder: try the smallest fix that actually fits the problem. We'd rather cable your line today and earn the water heater job next year than sell you a jetting you didn't need. Call 859-408-3382 for a free quote.

Drain cleaning FAQ

Augering a clogged toilet is flat-rate and one of our most affordable fixes. If the auger can't clear it, the toilet gets pulled and reset with a new wax ring — we quote that before touching anything. Call 859-408-3382 for a free quote.
It's cheaper with an accessible cleanout and more involved without one — we quote it upfront before a truck rolls. Add a camera look (free with code SCOPEFREE) so you know why it clogged. Call 859-408-3382 for a free quote.
Because cabling opens a hole but leaves the buildup — or because roots, a belly, or a broken section keeps catching debris. A camera inspection shows the real cause. Repeat clogs are the pipe's way of raising its hand.
Skip the caustic stuff. It damages older pipes, rarely clears a formed clog, and makes the line hazardous for whoever works on it next. Enzyme treatments are great for maintenance — but an actual blockage needs mechanical cleaning.
Yes — cable work carries a 30-day warranty, cable + enzyme combos 60 days, and our full restoration packages (cable + jet + treatment) 90 days. If it re-clogs inside the warranty, we come back.
