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 Shipman drain team runs camera inspections to find the actual cause.
We run a camera line inspection before recommending a fix, so you're not paying to snake a line that actually needs hydro-jetting.
Every technician carries valid credentials and liability coverage — standard on every drain call.
Trucks stocked with jetting and camera equipment are staged around Shipman 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 Shipman, 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.
For a straightforward single-fixture clog, a mechanical auger clears the blockage without the cost of jetting equipment.
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.
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.
Our Shipman trucks carry both cable and jetting equipment, so a second trip is rarely needed.
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.

We serve Shipman proper and nearby Shipman, IL communities, prioritizing full backups ahead of routine slow-drain calls.
The camera inspection tells us — grease and scale buildup calls for jetting, while a simple isolated clog often just needs a cable.
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.
Root intrusion is common in Shipman, IL on older lines; we clear it and check whether the pipe itself needs repair.
It depends on kitchen volume, but many Shipman restaurants schedule quarterly service to avoid emergency backups.
Cable snaking often just punches through the clog rather than clearing the buildup coating the pipe wall, so it recurs.
