A kitchen sink that drains slower every week, a shower that backs up mid-rinse, a floor drain that gurgles when the washer runs — these rarely fix themselves, and snaking the surface clog usually just buys a few weeks. Our Mackinaw drain team runs camera inspections to find the actual cause.
Every drain job in Mackinaw starts with a look inside the pipe, not a guess based on symptoms alone.
Every technician carries valid credentials and liability coverage — standard on every drain call.
Trucks stocked with jetting and camera equipment are staged around Mackinaw so a backed-up drain doesn't sit for days.
You'll get a price after the camera inspection, before any jetting or excavation work begins.
These are the drain issues we see most often across Mackinaw, each handled with the equipment built for that specific cause.
Jetting scours the full diameter of the line, which is why it outperforms snaking on recurring grease and buildup problems.
We record and can show you the footage — you'll see exactly what's causing the clog, not just take our word for it.
Cable snaking is still the right call for a simple hair or debris clog close to the fixture.
Tree roots that have worked into a sewer or drain line get cut and cleared with a root-cutting head, then the line is reassessed for damage.
Grease buildup in kitchen lines is cleared with jetting, which handles congealed grease far better than a cable.
Scheduled jetting on problem lines keeps grease and scale from building back up between service visits.
Tell dispatch which fixtures are affected and whether it's a slow drain or a full backup — that shapes which truck gets sent.
A technician with camera and jetting equipment arrives within the scheduled window, ready to diagnose on-site.
You'll see or hear what's actually in the line before agreeing to the recommended fix.
The drain is cleared and camera-verified afterward to confirm the line is actually open, not just flowing better temporarily.

Modern jetting equipment lets us control pressure, and we camera-check condition before recommending it on aging pipe.
Ask dispatch for current camera inspection pricing when you call — it's disclosed before we schedule.
Yes — roots seek out moisture and can enter through small cracks or joints in sewer and drain lines, especially older clay pipe.
We can recommend a maintenance interval based on your trap size and kitchen volume after the first service visit.
Recurring clogs after snaking are the classic sign jetting or a camera diagnosis is actually needed.
