SEWER LINE CLEANING
& ROOTER SERVICES
& ROOTER SERVICES
Clearing a clog is easy. Knowing whether it was grease, roots, or a cracked pipe takes a cable and a camera, and that is how you stop clearing the same drain every few months.
A clog often sits far past the trap, deep in the branch line or the lateral. Our machines run the full length of the pipe, not just the first few feet a bottle ever touches.
Cabling and jetting open a line without the corrosion risk harsh chemicals bring to older Seattle plumbing, where a decades-old pipe cannot afford to be eaten from the inside.
Where it helps, we run a camera so you see the real condition of the line, not a guess. You leave knowing exactly what was wrong and whether anything else needs watching.
Most jobs wrap in one to two hours. Larger work, like a restaurant kitchen line or a multi-building property, can run to about a half-day.
The tell is when more than one fixture acts up at once. If a sink drains slow while the toilet gurgles, or the tub bubbles when you run the washer, the blockage sits in the shared line those fixtures feed into rather than in any single fixture. When one fixture sets off another, that shared line is where the problem is.
Water pooling and draining slowly, a gurgle as it goes down, a sewer or musty smell from a sink or floor drain, stains creeping around a basement or garage floor drain, several drains slowing at the same time, the lowest drain in the house backing up first, and toilet bubbling when you run the sink or washer. Catching it at this stage is faster, cheaper, and less messy than cleaning up an overflow.
Most clogs are handled by cabling, where a machine drives a cable through grease, hair, and soft blockages and pulls the line open. For roots or hardened scale, we switch to a cutting head that shears buildup off the pipe wall. When a line is packed too tight for cable to finish, we bring in hydro jetting to scour it end to end. Once water runs, we test the fixture to confirm the clog is gone rather than just loosened.
Cabling and snaking to clear the line and its branches, cutting heads for roots and scale, hydro-jetting for heavy buildup, flow testing at the fixture once it's clear, a plain-language walk-through of what we found, and written findings with a photo or video link. Camera inspection is included after clearing on many jobs, or available as an add-on.
Yes. Where it helps, we send a camera down the line so you can see the inside of your own pipe instead of taking our word for it. If there's a cracked or root-damaged section, we point it out and walk you through the options.
We clear the branch and outside lines behind a backup at a kitchen, bath, laundry, or floor drain, along with exterior and commercial lines: area and catch basins, downspout and storm laterals, grease and restaurant lines, trench drains, and mop sinks. When the clog is in that connected line, we'll go in through the house to reach it.
A drain that runs the way it should is a small thing until it stops. When it does, Aces Four brings the crew, the machines, and the straight answers to get it flowing again, usually the same day.
