Slow or clogged drains can disrupt your entire household. People's Choice Plumbing offers professional drain cleaning services using advanced techniques including hydro jetting, drain snaking, and sewer camera inspection. We clear blockages in kitchen sinks, bathroom drains, shower drains, floor drains, and main sewer lines. Our hydro jetting service uses high-pressure water to scour pipe walls clean, removing grease buildup, tree root intrusions, and stubborn blockages that traditional methods can't handle.

When a clog needs more than a cleaning

A single slow drain is usually a local blockage. When several fixtures back up at once, or the same clog keeps returning, the problem is often deeper in the main line. A sewer camera inspection shows the exact cause — roots, grease, a crack, or a collapsed section — so you clear the right problem instead of guessing.

Hydro jetting vs. snaking

Snaking punches a hole through a clog; hydro jetting scours the pipe clean. For a one-off hair clog, snaking is enough. For a drain that keeps coming back — grease, hard-water scale, or roots — jetting lasts years instead of months. Our hydro jetting vs. snaking guide covers cost, lifespan, and when each method is the right call.

Persistent sewer smells

A clog isn't the only drain-side problem. A sewer odor you can't trace often means a hidden opening in the drain-waste-vent system. A plumbing smoke test uses non-toxic smoke to make that leak visible — without opening walls.

“Had a nightmare of a morning where my toilet backed up into my shower! Called several companies and couldn’t get someone to come out asap. It is my only bathroom. Called People’s Choice at 8 am and Bruno was here before 11 am! Gave me a quote upfront, got to work, and we were back in business by noon! Great communication, fast scheduling, fair prices, explained everything and friendly. I wasn’t happy it happened by I’m grateful to have a reliable source for service when the next emergency arises. I highly recommend!”

Frequently Asked Questions

What is hydro jetting?

Hydro jetting uses a high-pressure water stream (up to 4,000 PSI) to scour the inside of your pipes clean. It removes grease, scale, tree roots, and other debris more thoroughly than traditional snaking.

How often should I have my drains professionally cleaned?

For most homes, annual drain cleaning is sufficient to prevent major clogs. If you have older pipes, large trees near your sewer line, or frequent slow drains, every six months is recommended.

Why does my shower drain keep backing up?

A shower drain that keeps backing up is usually caused by a buildup of hair, soap scum, and mineral deposits in the trap or branch line. If multiple drains back up at once, the blockage may be deeper in the main line. Professional drain cleaning or hydro jetting clears the obstruction and a camera inspection can confirm whether a larger sewer issue is to blame.
