PROFESSIONAL DRAIN CLEANING IN GREENVILLE, SC

A standard drain cleaning starts at a competitive base price — typically in the $150-$300 range depending on the drain location and severity. Kitchen drains with heavy grease buildup, main sewer line clogs, and drains requiring specialized equipment (hydro jetting vs. standard cabling) cost more. We quote the price after understanding your situation over the phone, and our technician confirms it on-site before starting.

A video inspection helps plumbers locate the clog within your drain. By pinpointing the exact location and identifying the type of blockage, plumbers can provide a targeted solution. This approach is more efficient and significantly increases the chances of getting your drain flowing properly again.

Sewer line work is priced based on the length of the affected section, depth of the pipe, method of repair (trenchless vs. traditional excavation), and the cause of the damage. A spot repair on an accessible section might run $1,500-$4,000, while a full sewer line replacement can range from $5,000-$15,000+. Trenchless methods (pipe lining or pipe bursting) minimize excavation and landscaping damage but aren’t always an option depending on the pipe condition. We always start with a camera inspection to determine exactly what we’re dealing with before quoting.

With the right equipment, skilled plumbers can generally remove a blockage within minutes. Locating the clog might take a bit more time, but once identified, it can be effectively cleared using advanced tools.

Yes, we use sewer camera inspection extensively — it’s one of the most valuable diagnostic tools in plumbing. There is typically a separate charge for camera inspection, but it pays for itself by showing us exactly what’s happening inside your pipes: the location, type, and severity of the problem. No guessing, no unnecessary digging. For sewer line issues, we consider camera inspection essential — we won’t recommend a major repair without visual confirmation of the problem.

Significantly. A simple clog — hair, grease, or debris — is typically cleared with standard drain cleaning equipment. Root intrusion is a different category: it requires cutting through the roots (often with a specialized root-cutting head), followed by a camera inspection to assess pipe damage, and potentially a repair or replacement recommendation. Roots don’t just clog pipes — they crack and displace them, which means the clog will return until the pipe is repaired. We’re straight with you about what’s a quick fix and what needs a long-term solution.
