The basics
What It Is
A backed-up floor drain is often the first place a larger main-line problem shows itself, so we inspect as we clear.

How we work
How It Works — Our Process
Our floor drain cleaning process clears and diagnoses:
- A Camera Inspection
A camera inspection to locate the clog and check whether the floor drain ties into a larger problem
- Augering
Augering or hydro jetting matched to the line and the type of buildup
- Clearing
Clearing the trap and line of sediment, debris, and grease
- A Post-Clean Camera Pass
A post-clean camera pass to confirm flow and document line condition
- A Recommendation If
A recommendation if the backup points to a main-line or structural issue
When you need it
When You Need It
Call for floor drain cleaning when a basement or commercial floor drain is slow, gives off odor, or backs up with standing water. Recurring floor-drain backups can signal a main-line problem, which we check with the camera.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my basement floor drain keep backing up?
Recurring floor-drain backups often mean the problem is downstream in the main line, not the floor drain itself. Our camera inspection shows whether it is a local clog or a main-line issue.
Does a smelly floor drain mean a problem?
A dry trap can let sewer gas up through a floor drain; sometimes simply refilling the trap helps. If odor persists, we inspect for a deeper clog or venting issue.
How much does floor drain cleaning cost?
A single-fixture drain cleaning is $129; if the main line is involved, main line cleaning starts at $89 base (up to about $350 depending on severity).
Can a floor drain clog flood my basement?
Yes — a blocked floor drain can let water back up onto the floor during heavy use or a storm. Clearing it promptly and checking the main line prevents that.
