Clogged sewer
Bakersfield’s Most Trusted Sewer Cleaning Company!
Fast, Reliable Work That Gets It Done Right
If toilets won’t flush or multiple drains are backing up, it’s usually a main sewer blockage. We diagnose the cause and clear the line the right way — snaking, hydro-jetting, and camera inspection with precision.
Signs of a Clogged Sewer Line
Multiple drains backing up at the same time
Toilet gurgling, bubbling, or slow flushing
Water backing up into the shower/tub when flushing
Sewage smell inside or near the cleanout
Water or waste coming up from a floor drain
Yard cleanout overflowing
Don’t wait. Sewer backups can lead to property damage and contamination.
What Causes It?
Common causes of sewer clogs in Bakersfield homes:
Tree roots breaking into the line
Grease buildup and sludge narrowing the pipe
Flushable wipes and heavy paper creating blockages
Bellies/sags in the line that hold debris
Old clay/cast iron pipe scaling and catching waste
Broken sections that collapse or offset
How We Clear Sewer Lines
We don’t guess — we diagnose and fix it right.
Step 1: Confirm the issue (fixtures affected, backup points, cleanout access)
Step 2: Clear the blockage with professional snaking/cabling to restore flow
Step 3: Hydro-jet when needed to remove grease, sludge, and heavy buildup
Step 4: Camera inspection (recommended) to see why it clogged and whether roots/damage are present
Step 5: Explain next steps clearly (maintenance vs. repair) with straightforward options

FAQ's
How do I know it’s the main sewer and not a single drain?
If multiple fixtures are affected (toilet + tub + sink), it’s usually the main line.
Should you snake or hydro-jet?
Snaking restores flow fast. Hydro-jetting is best when the line is coated with grease/sludge or keeps clogging.
Is a camera inspection worth it?
Yes — it shows roots, bellies, breaks, and the exact cause so you’re not paying to clear the same clog again.
Do you offer after-hours service?
Yes. We work around the clock 24/7. Standard hours are 8AM–4PM; after-hours is available for any emergency.
