Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting

Clear it properly

Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting in Nassau & Suffolk

Anyone can push a clog down the line. We would rather find out why it keeps coming back. Every main-line clearing includes a camera look at the pipe so you know whether you bought a fix or a postponement.

Camera comes standard

On main lines we show you the inside of your pipe on screen. You see what we see.

Jetting, not just cabling

A cable punches a hole through grease. Jetting scours the pipe wall back to bare.

Price before we start

Flat rate quoted at the door. No meter running while we work.

We find the cause

Roots, a belly, a bad fitting, or just years of grease. You get a straight answer.

Grease & Root Removal

Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting on Long Island, Explained

Kitchen drains: it is grease, and it is fixable

Kitchen lines clog because fats go down warm and set up hard fifteen feet out where the pipe gets cold. A cable bores a hole through that and buys you a few months. Hydro jetting cuts the whole deposit off the pipe wall and gives you back the full diameter.

If your kitchen sink has backed up twice in a year, stop paying for cabling. Jet it once and you are usually good for years.

Main line backups and tree roots

The mature oaks and maples that make Garden City and Northport beautiful are also a standing threat to clay and cast-iron sewer laterals. Roots find a hairline crack or a loose joint, get in for the water, and then grow into a mat that catches everything.

We cut them out with a root-cutting head and then camera the line to grade the damage. Sometimes the answer is an annual cutting. Sometimes the joint is gone and you are better served by a spot repair or a liner — and we will tell you which, with footage to back it up.

What not to put down the drain

Two things cause most of the emergency calls we run. The first is cooking grease. The second is anything sold as a flushable wipe — they do not break down, they catch on every imperfection in the pipe, and they are the single most common cause of a full main-line blockage we pull.

Coffee grounds, rice, pasta and eggshells belong in the bin rather than the disposal. A disposal is a grinder, not a garbage chute, and the line downstream of it is only four inches wide.

Chemical drain cleaner: please do not

Store-bought drain chemicals rarely clear a real clog. What they do is sit against your pipe generating heat, which softens PVC joints and eats the remaining wall of old cast iron. Then we arrive and have to work in a line full of caustic liquid.

If you have already poured some in, that is fine — just tell us when we get there so we can protect ourselves properly.

Good questions

Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting: What People Ask Us.

Why does my drain keep clogging after it is snaked?

A cable clears a channel through the blockage rather than the blockage itself. If a line clogs repeatedly, hydro jetting scours the pipe wall back to full diameter and usually ends the cycle.

Do you camera the line?

On every main-line clearing, at no extra charge. You see the footage, and we tell you whether you have a clean pipe with a grease problem or a pipe with a structural fault.

    Water heater went on a Sunday with a house full of family. Tony was here in an hour and a half, had the tank on the truck, and we had hot water before dinner. Priced it before he started and that was the price.

    Two other companies quoted me for a full sewer replacement. Ray cameraed the line, showed me the footage, and said one joint was the problem. Spot repair, a third of the price. That is a rare thing.

    We flooded twice before we called Flow’s. They put in a proper pit, a real pump and a battery backup, and then fixed the grading outside that nobody else had mentioned. Dry through the last two nor’easters.

    Mike handled the plumbing for our whole kitchen renovation and was the only trade on the job who hit every date. He also caught a galvanized line in the wall that would have been a nightmare later.

    Kitchen sink backed up every few months for years. They jetted the line instead of just snaking it and explained exactly why it kept happening. Two years later, no problems.

    Burst pipe at 11pm in February. A real person answered, told me which valve to shut while they drove over, and stayed until it was dry. I have recommended them to half my block since.

    Converted us from oil to gas and coordinated everything, including the parts that were National Grid’s job. I did not have to chase anybody once. Bills dropped immediately.
