Expert Drain Cleaning for Your Home

Here’s the truth: clogged drains never fix themselves. You might think that slow drain is clearing up on its own—but it’s only waiting for the worst possible time to back up again. Whether it’s your kitchen sink, your shower, or your sewer line, ignoring the problem only leads to bigger (and messier) issues.

Drain Cleaning FAQ

How much does professional drain cleaning cost on average?

Wisler’s drain cleaning special starts at $99, and final pricing is confirmed after an on-site diagnosis. Most costs depend on the type of line, how difficult the clog is to clear, and whether advanced tools are needed.

Factors that can affect pricing include:

  • Fixture drain vs. main sewer line service
  • Grease, wipes, roots, or a collapsed section causing the blockage
  • Need for video inspection, retrieval, or hydro-jetting beyond basic snaking
  • Limited access or after-hours emergency timing

If multiple fixtures back up at once, stop using water and call us immediately.

A slow shower drain usually points to a partial blockage reducing flow. Common culprits include hair and mineral buildup narrowing the trap and branch line. If other fixtures are also slow, wipes or tree roots may be restricting the main sewer line.

Recurring slowdowns can signal deeper issues like pipe bellies, misaligned joints, or collapsing sections. We use video camera inspections and hydro-jetting to find and fix the root cause. Ask about our $99 Drain Cleaning Special, which includes a free video inspection and same-day service.

Slow-draining sinks or tubs, gurgling sounds from other fixtures when you run water, recurring clogs in the same drain, or foul odors coming from a drain are all signs of a buildup deeper in the line than a plunger can reach.

We generally avoid store-bought chemical cleaners because they can damage older pipes and rarely clear the full blockage. Instead we use mechanical methods like drain snaking and hydro jetting, which physically clear the line without corroding your pipes.

A drain snake breaks through and pulls back a specific clog. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the entire interior of the pipe, removing grease, roots, and buildup along the whole line — better for recurring clogs or older, greasy plumbing.

Avoid pouring grease down kitchen drains, use a hair catcher in showers, and don’t flush wipes or “flushable” products — they don’t break down like toilet paper. Annual drain maintenance through our Diamond Club Membership can also catch buildup before it becomes a backup.
