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 Palatine drain team runs camera inspections to find the actual cause.
Every drain job in Palatine 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 Palatine 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 Palatine, each handled with the equipment built for that specific cause.
High-pressure water clears grease, sludge, and scale buildup from the inside of the pipe wall, not just punching a hole through the clog like a cable snake.
A waterproof camera is fed through the line to locate the exact blockage, a bellied section, or root intrusion before any tool touches the pipe.
Cable snaking is still the right call for a simple hair or debris clog close to the fixture.
We clear root intrusion and camera-check the pipe afterward to see whether a liner or spot repair is also needed.
Commercial kitchens in Palatine, IL get grease trap service scheduled around operating hours to avoid disrupting service.
A maintenance plan on a recurring-clog line usually costs less over a year than repeat emergency calls.
Dispatch asks a few quick questions about the symptoms to route the right equipment on the first trip.
A technician with camera and jetting equipment arrives within the scheduled window, ready to diagnose on-site.
The line gets camera-inspected, the actual blockage identified, and a flat price quoted before any clearing begins.
We re-run the camera after clearing so you can see the difference, backed by a workmanship warranty on the service.
