Drain Cleaning

Because your drains should do one thing well: drain

A slow drain might not feel like an emergency — at first. But left unchecked, it turns into standing water in the tub, overflowing sinks, bad smells in the kitchen, and eventually, water damage where you don’t want it.

At Law Plumbing, we don’t mess around with half-solutions. We clear residential drains using the right equipment for the job, and more importantly — we figure out why the problem keeps coming back. Because drain cleaner might get things moving today, but real drain cleaning keeps them moving long-term.

Signs your drain needs professional attention

Standing water: If your tub, sink, or shower is holding water longer than it should, that’s a clear sign of buildup or a partial blockage down the line.
Gurgling sounds: Weird noises coming from the drain usually mean there’s air trapped in the system — often due to a clog forming or improper venting.
Foul odors: A stinky drain, especially in the kitchen or laundry room, can be caused by food buildup, soap scum, grease, or even mold growth inside the pipes.
Recurring clogs: If you’re plunging the same drain every other week, there’s probably something deeper in the line that needs to be fully cleared out.
Multiple slow drains: When more than one drain is slow, it could mean a blockage in the main line — and that needs quick attention before it turns into a backup.

Our drain cleaning services

We use pro-level tools and know-how to safely and effectively clear out your lines:

Manual snaking and augering: Ideal for sinks, tubs, and small blockages close to the fixture
Motorized drain cleaning machines: For tougher clogs or lines with long runs or turns
Drain line inspections: If the problem keeps coming back, we’ll inspect the pipe to find the root cause (no pun intended)
Grease, hair, and soap scum removal: We know where buildup hides and how to eliminate it without damaging your plumbing
Preventive maintenance: If your drains work but have a history of issues, we can clean them proactively before problems return

What we don’t do: damage your pipes

We don’t rely on harsh chemicals, overpowered water pressure, or guesswork. We use the right equipment at the right pressure for your system. And if your drain problem turns out to be something bigger (like a cracked pipe or a collapsed line), we’ll help you understand your options without scaring you into expensive repairs.

**Bonus tip: what not to put down the drain**

Here’s our unofficial list of stuff your drains hate:

Grease, oil, and cooking fat
Coffee grounds
Eggshells
Flushable wipes (they’re not)
Hair clumps and soap chunks
Chemical drain cleaners (they can damage pipes and usually don’t work)

We’ll help clean up whatever’s made it down there — and give you tips to keep things flowing for the long haul.
