Blocked Drain Cleaning in Clayville

In Clayville, blocked drains have significantly become more common. We, as a plumbing company have gotten a significant amount of blocked mainlines and collapsed drain pipes in the area, reason being a junk pile up in the pipes, the lifespan of the pipes has run out or there are roots growing through pipes.

Blocked main lines and collapsed drain pipes are serious plumbing problems that can cause major disruption if not dealt with quickly. A blocked main line happens when debris, grease, hair, or foriegn objects build up over time, slowing drainige and causing water to back up in sinks, toilets, or showers. You might notice gurgling noises, slow drainign water, or odors coming from multiple drains, and if ignored these issues can lead to overflowing toilets or even flooding, damaging floors, walls, and belongings. Colapsed drain pips are usually caused by physical damage from tree roots, corrosion, or old brittle pipes. When a pipe collapses, water may start pushign up in your yard or foundation, and drainage problems can become severe, often requiring professional repair or replacement.

In November 2025 a client called in saying his main line is blocked, water is backing up in the backyard, toilets, shower and basins. At first we thought it is just a severe blocked mainline, we tried unblocking it using rodding eye equipment, but it got stuck. We decided to rather try out the drain machine, and quickly relized sand coming out the drain. We immediately knew that instead of a blocked mainline, it was a collapsed sewer line, which needed immediate attention. We then put the drain camera down the drain, showing the client exactly where the drain is collapsed and how many meters of piping we will have to replace. Client gave immediate go ahead and within a few days he had complete new drain pipes throughout.
