  • Pre-Jetting Camera Inspections: Before starting, we insert a high-definition sewer camera into your line. This step allows us to pinpoint the exact source of the obstruction and confirm that your plumbing is structurally strong enough to safely handle high-pressure water streams.
  • Thorough High-Pressure Flushing: Utilizing specialized rotating nozzles, we scour your sewer line with concentrated, high-pressure water. Rather than just punching a temporary hole through the buildup, this process completely strips away years of accumulated grease, scale, and intrusive tree roots to restore full diameter flow.
  • Clean, Courteous Service: True to our core belief that “Everything we do, we do for our customers,” our team takes great care to protect your home. We wear protective shoe booties, lay down floor mats, and thoroughly tidy up our workspace so your property looks immaculate when we leave.
  • Post-Service Verification: After finishing the hydro jetting, we run our diagnostic camera down the drain once more. This second pass confirms that the pipes are completely clear and pristine, giving you peace of mind backed by our trusted Done Right Promise.

Common Signs Your Basement Floor Drain Is Clogged

While a clogged basement floor drain may not always be obvious, there are a few signs that can indicate it’s time to call a professional plumber for assistance:

  1. Water Back-Up: If you notice water backing up into your basement when you use appliances like a washing machine or during a rainstorm, this is a strong indicator that your floor drain is clogged or obstructed.
  2. Slow Draining: If the water in your basement drain takes longer to drain or doesn’t drain at all, there is likely a blockage somewhere in the drainpipe.
  3. Bad Odors: A foul, musty smell is a common sign of trapped water and debris in a clogged drain. When water can’t flow freely, it begins to stagnate, leading to unpleasant odors that can spread throughout your basement and even your entire home.
  4. Visible Debris: If you see visible dirt, grime, or debris around your basement floor drain, it could be a sign that something is preventing proper drainage. Over time, the accumulation of debris can contribute to clogging.

If you notice any of these signs, don’t wait for the problem to worsen. The sooner you address the issue, the easier and more affordable the solution will be.

Why Basement Floor Drains Are Important

Basement floor drains serve as a critical part of your home’s drainage system. Their main job is to direct excess water away from your basement and help prevent flooding, particularly during heavy rainstorms or when there’s a water leak. If your basement floor drain is working properly, it helps keep water from pooling on your basement floor, protecting your home’s foundation from water damage and reducing the risk of mold and mildew growth.
