Drain Cleaning — Sacramento, CA
We've worked on drain cleaning jobs across Sacramento long enough to know what tends to break here, when, and why. We answer the phone, give you a real quote before any work starts, and bring the right tools the first time.
What this service includes
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 have 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.
Typical investment
Kitchen sink cable runs $145 – $340. Toilet auger runs $180 – $260. Main sewer line cable runs $240 – $540. Hydro-jet + video camera inspection runs $480 – $950. Camera-only inspection runs $180 – $280.
