About this service
The first instruction on every emergency call is the same: stop sending water down the drains. If neighbors back up simultaneously, the municipal main becomes the prime suspect. The emergency visit restores function; the scheduled visit delivers the lasting repair.
Honest triage sometimes means telling a caller their problem can wait until morning. Spring root growth turns small joint separations into full blockages within weeks. Root masses, grease chokes, and collapses each demand a different permanent fix.
Gurgling across the house is the early warning; visible backup is the late one. Frost-season emergencies often trace to grease congealing in cold lines or shifted shallow joints. Cabling cuts through the immediate blockage; jetting then scours the pipe wall clean.
