What's typical for this job

Drain cleaning sits between simple kitchen-sink clogs and full sewer-line replacements. We do everything in between: tub drains, laundry standpipes, kitchen sinks, toilets, and main lines.

First call is always cable (also called snaking). For most kitchen and bath blockages, a cable hits the obstruction and clears it. Cost: $145 to $340 depending on access.

If the cable doesn't clear it — common with grease accumulation in older kitchen lines, or root invasion in main sewer lines — the next step is hydro-jetting at 4,000 PSI. That actually scours the pipe rather than punching a hole through the clog. Cost: $480 to $950, often with a camera inspection thrown in.

The camera tells you whether you've a recurring problem (cracked tile, belly in the line, foreign object) versus a one-off clog. It's worth doing on a third call to the same drain — that's when something structural is usually behind the clog.

Local context for Kansas City

We work across Kansas City proper plus the surrounding suburbs, with average drive time of 30–60 minutes from dispatch to driveway.

One we ran last year

Last spring we got a call from a homeowner near the north Kansas City. A tub that never drained right since they moved in. Diagnosis: a kid's plastic toy lodged 18 inches into the trap arm. We pulled it out with a cable, ran the test, and were out the door in in one trip. Total: $312 including parts.
