Services
Clogged drain cleaning
Our technicians use advanced hydro jetting and mechanical snaking equipment to clear residential and commercial drain blockages. We handle kitchen sinks, bathroom drains, floor drains, and main sewer lines with same-day service availability. Our preventative maintenance plans help avoid recurring clogs through regular system inspections and cleaning.
Sewer line inspection
We employ high-resolution optical cameras to inspect sewer lines and identify root intrusions, cracks, or blockages. This non-invasive technology allows accurate diagnosis of issues in both residential and commercial properties, enabling targeted repairs without unnecessary excavation.
Frozen pipe thawing
Our specialized thawing equipment safely melts ice blockages in drain and sewer lines during Minnesota's cold winters. This emergency service prevents pipe bursts and water damage while restoring system functionality. We also offer preventative maintenance to reduce future freezing risks.
Commercial grease trap cleaning
We provide scheduled maintenance for commercial kitchen grease traps and interceptors. Our high-capacity pumping equipment removes accumulated debris while meeting local sanitation regulations. Regular service prevents backups and maintains proper drainage for food service establishments.
24/7 emergency plumbing
Available round-the-clock for critical drain and sewer emergencies, our rapid response team addresses sewage backups, complete drain failures, and other urgent issues. We maintain fully equipped service vehicles to resolve problems immediately while minimizing property damage.
