Drain Cleaning & Sewer Repair in Norcross, GA

Drain Snaking

When a stubborn clog disrupts daily life, professional drain cleaning with a drain snake is often the fastest and most effective first step to clean your drain. Also known as rooter service, this method physically removes blockages caused by grease buildup, soap residue, hair, and early-stage root intrusion.

A professional plumber from Bardi arrive equipped with professional-grade augers, from handheld tools for sinks and tubs to heavy-duty motorized rooters designed for main sewer lines. We don't just punch a hole through the clog—we work to fully clear the pipe's diameter, restoring proper flow and reducing the chance of immediate re-clogging.

Hydro Jetting

High-pressure hydro jetting is one of the most effective ways to clear stubborn drain and sewer line blockages. This advanced cleaning method uses powerful streams of water to break apart grease, sludge, debris, and buildup along the pipe walls — restoring full flow without harsh chemicals.

Hydro Jetting vs. Traditional Drain Cleaning

Traditional drain snaking is effective for breaking through localized clogs, but it may not fully remove buildup along the pipe walls. Hydro jetting, on the other hand, thoroughly cleans the interior of the pipe, reducing the likelihood of repeat blockages. Our technicians will evaluate your system and recommend the right solution based on the condition of your drains.

Preventative Drain Maintenance

Routine drain cleaning can help:

• Extend the life of your plumbing system

• Prevent emergency backups

• Improve water flow

• Reduce unpleasant odors

• Minimize costly sewer repairs

What Causes Drain Clogs in Norcross Homes?

Drain problems often develop gradually due to everyday buildup and debris. Common causes include:

• Grease and food waste in kitchen drains

• Hair and soap buildup in bathroom drains

• Flushing wipes or hygiene products

• Tree root intrusion in older sewer lines

• Pipe scale, corrosion, or shifting underground pipes

Homes throughout Norcross — especially those with aging plumbing systems — may be more prone to recurring drain issues.

Signs You Need Professional Drain Cleaning

Not every clog is obvious at first. Watch for these warning signs:

• Slow-draining sinks or tubs

• Gurgling sounds from pipes

• Frequent toilet backups

• Foul odors from drains

• Water backing up in multiple fixtures

If you notice any of these issues, it's best to address them early before they lead to major sewer line problems.

Sewer Cleaning

Over time, grease, sludge, debris, and scale can accumulate inside sewer lines, restricting flow and increasing the risk of backups. Professional sewer cleaning removes these obstructions and helps prevent emergency plumbing issues. Depending on the severity, we may recommend mechanical cleaning or hydro jetting for a deeper, more thorough solution.

Sewer Camera Inspection

Modern sewer maintenance relies on visibility. We use high-definition waterproof cameras to navigate the entire length of your sewer main, from the house to the city connection. This allows us to see exactly what is happening underground without any digging. Getting a sewer scope for your sewer line is an essential service for homes that have problems with recurring clogs. The inspection identifies cracks, offsets, root intrusions, and pipe collapses, providing a clear roadmap for whether a simple cleaning or a more intensive repair is required.

Root Intrusion Removal

When roots penetrate a pipe, they create a web that catches every flushable item, leading to a total system backup.

Our specialized root removal process uses heavy-duty cutters and high-pressure water from the hydro jet to strip roots away from the pipe interior to restore flow of your drains. Once cleared, we provide a detailed assessment of the entry points to determine if the pipe requires a permanent seal or reinforcement to prevent the roots from returning within the season.

Sewer Repair

If your sewer line is cracked, leaking, or partially collapsed, timely repair is critical. Ignoring structural damage can lead to sewage backups, yard damage, and costly interior repairs.

Our team evaluates the extent of the damage and determines whether spot repair or a more comprehensive solution is required.

Sewer Line Replacement

Professional sewer replacement begins with an accurate diagnosis to determine whether a targeted repair or full replacement is the most effective solution. Whenever possible, we offer trenchless "no-dig" sewer repair and replacement to minimize disruption to landscaping and driveways. When excavation is required, we use precision digging techniques and install modern, durable piping designed to last for decades.
