Hydro jetting vs snaking

Snaking can open a blockage. Hydro jetting removes grease and buildup from pipe walls to reduce repeat clogs.
The best method depends on pipe condition and what is causing the problem.

Common Causes of Drain Clogs in Grosse Pointe

Drain issues often come from everyday buildup, but recurring problems usually mean the line needs deeper cleaning or the cause is structural.
A clear diagnosis is the fastest way to stop repeat clogs.

What typically causes clogs

  • Grease and food buildup in kitchen lines
  • Hair and soap residue in tubs and showers
  • Paper buildup or non flushable items in toilets
  • Root intrusion in older sewer lines
  • Pipe scale and narrowing in older plumbing
  • Bellies, offsets, or damage in the sewer line

If clogs keep returning, start with a camera inspection.

Avoid chemical drain cleaners

Store bought chemicals can damage pipes and often do not remove the full blockage. Professional drain cleaning is safer and more effective,
especially for recurring clogs and slow drains.
