Fast, reliable drain cleaning when you need it most. We clear clogs and restore proper drainage to get your home flowing smoothly again.
Slow drains and backups don't always need replacing your whole pipe system. Sometimes they just need a good cleaning.
Water that trickles down instead of flowing freely usually means something's blocking the line. Hair, soap buildup, and grease start accumulating over time and gradually slow your drainage. We flush these blockages out quickly.
When water starts backing up into your shower, sink, or tub, you've got a serious clog. This gets worse fast, so we get to you as soon as possible. Our technicians use the right tools to break through whatever's stuck in there.
Foul odors coming from your drains mean something's decomposing down there. Bacteria buildup, trapped food particles, and organic matter create these unpleasant smells. Professional cleaning removes the source of the odor.
Hearing strange gurgling or bubbling noises from your pipes? That's air trying to escape around a partial blockage. As water tries to drain, it gets stuck and forces air back up, creating those weird sounds.
Understanding what clogs your drains helps you prevent future problems.
Hair is one of the biggest culprits in bathroom drains. Strands wrap around pipes and collect soap residue, forming a mat that traps water. A simple drain cover helps, but we can clear existing clogs in minutes.
Cooking oils and grease might flow down your kitchen sink when hot, but they cool and solidify in your pipes. Over time, these deposits thicken and trap other debris, creating a stubborn clog that won't budge with a plunger.
Hard water in many Vandalia homes leaves behind mineral buildup. Combined with soap residue, these deposits harden on pipe walls and restrict water flow. Regular cleaning keeps this under control.
Even with a garbage disposal, food particles can escape and lodge in your drain system. Fibrous foods like celery, corn husks, and potato peels are especially problematic and create blockages that spread over time.
If your home sits on a property with large trees, roots can infiltrate sewer lines underground. They grow toward moisture and crack pipes from the inside, creating serious blockages that need professional intervention.
Kids flush toys, people flush things that shouldn't go down, and objects accidentally fall in. These items get stuck and collect other debris around them, blocking the entire drain.
Here's what happens when a plumber from Plumbing Vandalia comes to clear your drains.
We don't just assume we know what's clogging your drain. Our technicians use camera inspection to see exactly where the blockage is and what's causing it. This prevents us from guessing and wasting your time. We locate the problem accurately so we can fix it right.
For most clogs, we use a motorized snake that spins down the drain and breaks apart whatever's blocking it. The auger pushes through hair, soap, grease, and other debris. It's effective, fast, and costs less than other methods for standard clogs.
For stubborn clogs or buildup that won't clear with a snake, we use high-pressure water jetting. We can offer hydro jetting services that blast through blockages and scour your pipes clean inside. This method reaches your entire drain system, not just the immediate clog.
After we clear your drain, we explain what we found and suggest ways to avoid the same problem in the future. Whether it's a drain cover, watching what you flush, or scheduling periodic cleaning, we give you practical advice.
If we clear your drain and it backs up again within a reasonable period, we come back. We stand behind our work because we know our technicians do quality service. You're not paying to guess; you're paying for results.
We quote upfront before we start work, so no surprises. Drain cleaning is priced reasonably because it's a core service we do constantly. We're not trying to upsell you on something you don't need.
