Services
Sewer Cleaning
Our sewer cleaning service removes blockages caused by debris, tree roots, and grease buildup in main sewer lines. Using power snake machines, we clear pipes connecting to city sewers or septic tanks. This prevents backups and maintains proper drainage for residential and commercial properties.
Drain Repair
We specialize in drain repair for household and industrial systems clogged by hair, grease, and soap buildup. Our technicians use specialized tools to clear blockages in bathroom sinks, showers, kitchen drains, and floor drains. We restore proper flow and prevent recurring issues through thorough pipe cleaning.
Video Inspections
Our video inspection service identifies pipe defects using camera technology. This non-invasive method locates cracks, root intrusions, and blockages in drain systems. We provide digital recordings for customer records, which are often required during home purchases or insurance claims.
Grease Trap Maintenance
We perform mandatory grease trap pumping every 90 days or at 25% capacity as required by Massachusetts law. Our service prevents grease buildup in commercial kitchens, maintaining compliance and preventing costly sewer line contamination through regular maintenance and thorough cleaning.
Emergency Service
Our 24-hour emergency service addresses urgent drain and sewer issues at any time. With rapid response times, we handle critical blockages, backups, and system failures for residential and commercial clients. Our on-call technicians ensure immediate assistance outside regular business hours.
