Our Emergency Drain Cleaning Process
When you call Plumbing Express for an emergency drain cleaning service, you can expect a seamless and professional experience from start to finish. Here’s what our process looks like:
- Immediate Dispatch: As soon as we receive your call, we dispatch a licensed plumber to your location. Our 24/7 availability ensures that we can respond at any time of the day or night.
- Thorough Inspection and Diagnosis: Upon arrival, our technician will conduct a thorough inspection of your drainage system to identify the root cause of the problem. We may use a video inspection camera to get a clear view of the inside of your pipes, allowing us to pinpoint the exact location and nature of the blockage.
- Effective and Efficient Cleaning: Based on the diagnosis, we will implement the most effective cleaning method. For severe clogs, we often recommend hydro jetting, which uses high-pressure water to blast away debris, grease, and tree roots, leaving your pipes clean and clear.
- Preventative Advice: After resolving the immediate issue, our plumber will provide you with expert advice on how to prevent future drain emergencies. We believe in empowering our customers with the knowledge they need to maintain a healthy plumbing system.
Common Drain Emergencies We Handle
Our team is equipped to handle a wide range of drain emergencies. No matter the size or complexity of the problem, we have the expertise to provide a lasting solution. Some of the common emergencies we address include:
- Main Sewer Line Clogs: A blockage in your main sewer line can cause sewage to back up into your home, creating a hazardous situation. We can quickly clear the blockage and restore proper flow.
- Kitchen and Bathroom Sink Clogs: Grease, food particles, hair, and soap scum can build up over time, leading to stubborn clogs that require professional attention.
- Toilet Clogs and Overflows: A clogged toilet can be a messy and stressful problem. We can quickly and hygienically resolve the issue, ensuring your toilet is functioning properly.
- Shower and Bathtub Drains: Slow-draining showers and tubs are a common nuisance. We can effectively remove the buildup of hair and soap residue to restore proper drainage.
- Floor Drain Backups: Basements and garages often have floor drains that can back up, leading to flooding and water damage. We can clear these drains and help you prevent future backups.
Advanced Drain Cleaning Technology for Fast Results
At Plumbing Express, we utilize cutting-edge technology to deliver superior results. Our advanced equipment allows us to tackle even the toughest drain problems with ease.
Hydro Jetting Services
For severe or recurring clogs, hydro jetting is the most effective solution. This method uses a high-pressure stream of water (up to 4,000 PSI) to scour the inside of your pipes, removing years of accumulated grease, scale, tree roots, and other debris. Hydro jetting is not only highly effective but also safe for your pipes and environmentally friendly.
Video Camera Inspection
Our video inspection cameras allow us to see exactly what’s going on inside your pipes. This non-invasive technology helps us accurately diagnose the problem without any guesswork. By identifying the exact location and cause of the blockage, we can implement the most targeted and effective solution, saving you time and money on unnecessary repairs.
Preventative Maintenance to Avoid Future Emergencies
While we are always here to help in an emergency, we also believe in the importance of preventative maintenance. Regular drain cleaning can help you avoid costly and stressful emergencies down the road. We offer comprehensive drain maintenance plans to keep your plumbing system in optimal condition. Our preventative services include regular inspections, cleaning, and expert advice on how to maintain your drains.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Emergency Drain Cleaning
Signs of a drain emergency include water backing up out of your drains, multiple clogged drains at once, foul odors coming from your drains, and gurgling sounds. If you experience any of these issues, it’s best to call a professional plumber immediately.
The cost of emergency drain cleaning can vary depending on the severity and location of the clog. At Plumbing Express, we provide transparent, upfront pricing before any work begins, so you’ll know the exact cost.
We do not recommend using chemical drain cleaners. These products can be corrosive and damage your pipes over time. They are also often ineffective against severe clogs and can be harmful to your health and the environment. It’s always best to call a professional for safe and effective drain cleaning.
You can prevent drain clogs by being mindful of what you put down your drains. Avoid pouring grease, coffee grounds, and other food scraps down your kitchen sink. In the bathroom, use a hair strainer in your shower and tub drains and avoid flushing anything other than toilet paper down the toilet. Regular professional drain cleaning is also a great way to prevent future clogs.
Drain snaking, or augering, is a traditional method that uses a cable to break up a clog. While it can be effective for minor clogs, it doesn’t always remove the entire blockage. Hydro jetting, on the other hand, uses a high-pressure stream of water to thoroughly clean the inside of your pipes, removing all debris and buildup. It is a more comprehensive and long-lasting solution.

We had water pressure and water temperature issues, which turned out to be caused by a failing pressure regulator valve and a failed valve in a crossover recirculator. Anthony diagnosed and replaced both, repaired a pinhole leak in a copper pipe near the PRV, and did the annual service on our tankless heater, all in less than 3 1/2 hours including a 45 minute trip to pick up the correct PRV for our system. He is always fast, efficient and knowledgeable, and willing to answer all our questions.
Daniel did a great job with the tankless installation, educating us on the new unit, and was very professional. Happy to have hot water once again. Thank you.
Rob came in and was friendly and completed the toilet repair quickly and professionally.
Fantastic, trustworthy and reliable Plumber. Highly recommend. Daniel was awesome. Hard to recommend any other plumbing business in Atlanta! These guys are honest and don’t nickel and dime you for everything.
We had a pool of water forming in our front yard, so we scheduled an appointment with Plumbing Express and they quickly sent Daniel to come diagnose the issue. When he arrived, he let me know what the potential issues were and gave me a very detailed breakdown of the costs and work involved, from best to worst case scenario. He was able to break things down in a way that I could easily understand, and I could tell that he was being honest with me which gave me the confidence to hire him to work on the issue. He quickly found the leak, showed me, and I immediately agreed to have him fix the pipe. Within an hour or so he had the leak fixed and filled the area he had to dig up, all while it was so cold it actually began to snow a little bit. I could not ask for better service and will happily go with Plumbing Express in the future for any plumbing needs.
Rod was very professional, courteous, and quick. I've also used Plumbing Express in the past and was happy with the service.
Tim was great. Took the time to explain what he was doing and break down everything that needed to be done.
I requested Dylan because he had previously came to our house to diagnose what was wrong with our Renni tankless water heater. He always explains what is wrong and what needs to be done to fix what's wrong. Dylan this a highly talented plumber.
They say, “you won’t know what someone is made of until you see them navigate problems and mistakes.” The install team were incredibly professional and courteous. They did unfortunately have a couple of big missteps, but they and their boss Ty handled it the way great companies do. They listened apologetically and made it right!! Ty acted honorably to make things right and Lucio, Joe, Ben and Rad did a tremendous job replumbing the house in just one day to bypass the leak under the slab. Grateful for their hard work and will certainly recommend to my friends and family!
Daniel did a great job of telling me exactly what the issues were as well as the solutions. He finished the work in a timely fashion and was able to recommend another company for possible water damage.
Polite, customer friendly. Both were very nice. Work completed on time and did what they said. Thanks, Harry Fraley
Anthony hooked up a firepit to a new gas line. He did a good job and worked quickly. He was friendly and explained things well.
Service is prompt and expert. Highly recommend. Mr Robinson minimized any disruption possible from installation. His professionalism and attention to detail is outstanding.
Third time using them, very positive experience, friendly, efficient and do clean work. Will call them again.
Very calm, respectful, and explained things well to someone who doesn’t know much about plumbing.
Anthony was amazing to work with. Very knowledgeable, friendly, and very quick to respond to our situation! We would recommend him to anyone.
I am very pleased with their work. Were the most affordable and they a terrific job. I highly recommend it
Anthony was very competent, professional and friendly. He answered all my questions throughly. Highly recommend!
Thanks to Rod Anderson. I had a great experience with the Mr. Anderson who came to my home. He was very professional, respectful, and honest. You could tell he really knew his work and took the time to explain everything clearly. I truly appreciated his knowledge and transparency. I would highly recommend his services and will definitely call him again if I ever need plumbing help!
After suffering a second leak under our slab and getting quotes from various plumbers, we decided to have our house repiped through the attic. Ed came by from Plumbing Express and I was convinced that they were the right company. Not only was their bid competitive with the other plumbers, but they also provided better insulation for the pipes and turnkey drywall repair and paint. The plumbing crew were polite and professional and kept the work areas clean. They kept the damage and the dust down to a minimum which was a pleasant surprise. After they completed the job, Flaniel repaired and painted the walls like new with no signs of patching. He was super clean and even mopped the floors before he left. I also want to give a shout out to Ivan in the office who orchestrated everything. Finally, I can say without a doubt, that if you have plumbing issues, Plumbing Express is the one to call.
Anthony is very professional and polite. He installed plumbing during reno for the master bath, basement bath and new kitchenette. Highly recommend.
Rod did a great job.He was very professional and informative. Great customer service overall.
Very happy with the pipe replacement. The whole team was super professional, knowledgeable, efficient and communicative
Installed new water heaters and a whole home water filter system. Great communication. Did everything they said they would do in the timeframe stated. Left everything clean and answered all my questions.
I had an outstanding experience with Rod. He was professional, punctual, and extremely knowledgeable. He quickly diagnosed the problem, explained everything clearly, and completed the work efficiently. The quality of his work was excellent, and he left everything clean and neat when he finished.
Smooth process from receiving the initial estimate to completion of our complete home repiping.
Rod Anderson was my technician. He was courteous, prompt, and knowledgeable. He was able to fi n d the problem and recommended next steps. Thanks for your services.
Had a leaking pipe around the hot water heater and another one showing alot of corrosion from calcium buildup. I needed these pipes repaired before they become a bigger problem. I have used Plumbing Express in the past and had great results so I called them again and got great results from their service on repairing these pipes and quick and efficient service. Dylan was great and very efficient and knowledgeable about what repairs needed to be done. I will definitely use Plumbing Express and ask for Dylan when I have any plumbing problems in the future!
Great thorough service. Daniel Edwards was first to help us identify the issue and professionally communicated the problem and connected us to a remediation Tim. His colleague Tim was able to follow up after the remediation team and quickly identify and solve the problem. Would highly recommend!
Tim Robinson diagnosed our upstairs bathroom water problem through performing a shower pan test. He isolated the issue quickly and efficiently. He advised that I needed a tile contractor that specialized in shower pans and that Plumbing Express didn't do tile. That was the best advice I had received to date on this water problem. I will contact Tim Robinson with Express Plumbing again...I highly recommend him!
Plumbing Express did a great job changing out my copper piping throughout my home! They did an excellent job protecting all my furnishings also! Thanks for a job well done & also for great communication!
Did a great job replacing my hot water heater. Very professional and quick and service.
Good experience with my water heater replacement. It’s never fun when a unit goes out, but Daniel was excellent and had me taken care of quickly.
We have used Plumbing Express before so when a free limb fell and broke our line to our sprinkler system. we called them. Tim came out and did a fantastic job! We will definitely use Plumbing Express again if needed
