Hear From Our Clients
Your kitchen sink drains completely in seconds, not minutes. Water flows down your shower drain without pooling around your feet. No more gurgling sounds from your bathroom drains or foul smells creeping up from the pipes.
You’re not dealing with the same clog again next month. The water flows where it should, when it should. Your morning routine isn’t interrupted by standing water, and you’re not calling plumbers every few weeks for the same recurring problem.
That’s what happens when the job gets done right the first time. No shortcuts, no temporary fixes—just your drains working the way they’re supposed to work.
We’ve been handling drain problems in Southold since 1998. Twenty-six years of unclogging drains, clearing sewer lines, and solving plumbing headaches for families and businesses across Suffolk County.
We know what clogs North Fork drains. We know which houses have older pipe systems that need a gentler touch, and which newer developments can handle more aggressive cleaning methods. We know the local soil conditions that affect your sewer lines and the seasonal issues that hit Southold properties.
You’re not getting a corporate call center or a technician who’s never worked in your area before. You’re getting local expertise that understands exactly what you’re dealing with.
First, we assess what’s actually causing your drain problem. Not every clog needs the same solution, and we use the right approach for your specific situation—whether that’s snaking, hydro-jetting, or camera inspection to see what’s happening inside your pipes.
We clear the blockage completely, not just enough to get water moving again. Our equipment scrapes your pipes clean, removing buildup that would cause the same problem to come back in a few weeks. If we find tree roots, grease buildup, or other recurring issues, we address those too.
After the cleaning, we test everything to make sure water flows properly and explain what we found. If there are steps you can take to prevent future problems, we’ll tell you. If your system needs more attention down the road, we’ll be honest about that too.

Complete drain inspection and diagnosis to identify the root cause of your problem. Professional cleaning using the appropriate method for your specific situation—mechanical snaking for most clogs, hydro-jetting for heavy buildup, and camera inspection when we need to see exactly what’s happening inside your pipes.
We handle kitchen drains clogged with grease and food debris, bathroom drains blocked with hair and soap buildup, main sewer lines affected by tree roots, and floor drains in basements that back up during heavy rains. Every service includes cleanup of our work area and practical advice for preventing future issues.
Southold properties face unique challenges with seasonal debris, older pipe systems in historic areas, and soil conditions that can affect sewer lines. Our local experience means we know what to expect and how to handle the specific drainage issues that affect North Fork homes and businesses.
Drain cleaning costs in Southold typically range from $150 to $400, depending on the severity of the clog and the method needed to clear it. Simple kitchen or bathroom drain clogs usually cost less, while main sewer line cleaning or hydro-jetting services cost more.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying. No surprise charges, no hidden fees, and no inflated prices for weekend or evening service. The investment in professional cleaning usually saves money compared to repeated DIY attempts or dealing with the same clog coming back.
Snaking uses a metal cable that spins and pushes through clogs to break them apart and scrape pipe walls clean. It’s effective for most standard clogs caused by hair, soap, food debris, and minor buildup. The snake physically removes blockages and is the go-to method for routine drain cleaning.
Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water—up to 4,000 PSI—to blast away stubborn clogs, grease buildup, tree roots, and accumulated debris. It’s more thorough than snaking and completely cleans pipe walls, but it’s typically used for more serious blockages or as preventive maintenance for heavily used drain systems.
Most Southold homes benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1-2 years as preventive maintenance. However, your specific situation might require more or less frequent service depending on factors like the age of your pipes, household size, and what typically goes down your drains.
Homes with older plumbing systems, large families, or frequent cooking might need annual cleaning. Properties with newer pipes and careful drain usage might go longer between professional cleanings. If you’re dealing with recurring clogs every few months, that’s a sign you need more regular professional maintenance rather than just addressing problems as they come up.
We handle both individual drain clogs and main sewer line cleaning. Main sewer line issues are actually more common in Southold than many homeowners realize, especially in older neighborhoods where tree roots can infiltrate pipes or where settling soil affects pipe alignment.
Main sewer line problems often show up as multiple drains backing up at once, gurgling sounds from several fixtures, or sewage odors in your basement. We use specialized equipment for sewer line cleaning, including powerful snaking machines and hydro-jetting systems designed to handle the larger pipes and more challenging blockages found in main lines.
If a drain backs up again within a few weeks of professional cleaning, there’s usually an underlying issue that needs attention. This could be a damaged pipe, a partial blockage that wasn’t completely cleared, or a problem with your main sewer line affecting multiple drains.
Contact us immediately if you experience recurring backups. We stand behind our work, and if the same clog comes back quickly, we’ll investigate further to find the real cause. Sometimes what appears to be a simple drain clog is actually a symptom of a larger plumbing issue that needs a different approach.
Yes, we provide emergency drain cleaning services for urgent situations like sewage backups, multiple drain failures, or situations that pose health risks or property damage. We understand that some drain problems can’t wait until regular business hours.
Emergency situations include sewage backing up into your basement, multiple drains failing at once, or any drain problem that’s creating unsanitary conditions in your home. We respond quickly to minimize damage and health risks, and we don’t charge extra fees just because it’s an emergency call.
