Frequently Asked Questions
What does drain cleaning typically cost?
Cost depends on the type of clog, its location, and what method is needed — a simple sink clog versus main line hydro-jetting, for example. Pricing is discussed directly with the technician after they've assessed the blockage.
Will a chemical drain cleaner fix this myself?
Store-bought chemical cleaners can sometimes clear minor clogs, but they often just push the blockage further down the line rather than removing it, and repeated use can damage older pipes. For a persistent or full blockage, mechanical clearing is usually more effective.
Can tree roots really get into a drain line?
Yes — roots are drawn to the moisture inside drain and sewer lines and can enter through small cracks or joints, gradually causing blockages or pipe damage. This is a common cause of recurring main line backups.
How do I know if it's a simple clog or a main line backup in Glen Ellyn?
If just one fixture is slow or blocked, it's usually a localized clog. If multiple drains are backing up at the same time, or water comes up in a different fixture when you run one, that points to a main line issue. Call (607) 305-1943 either way to get it assessed.
What should I do while waiting for a technician to arrive?
Avoid running additional water into the affected drain, and don't use chemical drain cleaners right before a technician arrives, since residual chemicals can be a safety concern during mechanical clearing.
