Common Questions: Drain Cleaning in Longbranch
Pricing is flat-rate by job, not by the hour. We give a free estimate in writing on arrival before any work starts. There is no trip charge in the Longbranch service area.
Both. We start with cabling when the line is in good enough condition to take it. Hydrojetting is the right tool for grease, scale, and roots that will not give to cabling. We do not jet a line that should not be jetted.
Recurring clogs almost always mean something more is going on, like roots, a belly, a partial collapse, or a venting issue. On the second clearing of the same line, we strongly recommend a camera inspection when access allows so we know what we are actually fighting.
Yes, when access allows. We watch the screen with you and explain what we are seeing as we go. Recording is available on request.
We open the wall cleanly when access requires it. Drywall patch, texture, and paint are by others unless those steps are separately written into the scope.
