Drain emergencies do not follow business hours. A sewer backing up at 10 PM on a Saturday is not a problem that can wait until Monday.

Critical Risk: Aurora Water's own documentation shows that one Aurora household suffered more than nineteen thousand dollars in property damage from a single sewer backup event.

- Avoid chemical drain cleaners entirely to prevent pipe damage or chemical hazards.
- Locate your cleanout cap near the foundation to relieve pressure if safe to do so.

10 Warning Signs Your Aurora Home Needs Drain or Sewer Cleaning Right Now
These are the signals Aurora homes send before a minor clog becomes a major repair. If you recognize three or more of these at the same time, the main sewer line is the likely source.
One symptom at a single fixture is usually a localized blockage. Multiple symptoms across the home point directly to the main sewer line and should be treated as an emergency.

Roko Drain Cleaning handles residential and commercial drain and sewer work across all of Aurora. We do not do plumbing, HVAC, or electrical. Drains and sewers are all we do, which means every technician on our team has deep experience with exactly the type of problem you are calling about.
Residential Drain Cleaning Aurora CO
Kitchen sinks, bathroom and shower drains, bathtub drains, toilet drains, laundry room drains, and basement floor drains. We identify the cause before we start work and use the equipment matched to that specific problem, not the same tool on every call.
Main Sewer Line Cleaning Aurora CO
When two or more fixtures are backing up at the same time, the problem is almost always in the main sewer line connecting your home to the Aurora city sewer under the street. Main line cleaning requires heavier equipment and a different approach than fixture-level work. We clear full-diameter blockages and confirm results with a camera run.
Hydro Jetting Aurora CO â When Snaking Is Not Enough
A cable snake cuts through a clog and restores flow temporarily. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to strip the entire pipe interior back to full diameter, removing mineral scale, grease, and root fragments from the pipe walls. For Aurora homes dealing with hard water scale and grease combined, snaking often provides only two to four months of relief. One hydro jetting service on an Aurora home with scale history typically holds for one to two years. If you have had the same drain snaked more than twice in one year, hydro jetting is the more economical long-term answer.
Sewer Camera Inspection Aurora CO
Before significant drain work on any Aurora property built before 1995, we recommend a camera inspection. A fiber-optic camera travels through the line and shows us the exact location and nature of the problem: mineral scale, root mass, pipe belly, offset joint, or crack. You watch the footage with us before we recommend any work. This protects you from paying for a solution that does not match the actual problem.
Commercial Drain Cleaning Aurora CO
Restaurants along South Havana Street, commercial kitchens near Southlands, and food service businesses along the I-225 corridor generate grease loads that residential methods cannot consistently manage. We provide scheduled commercial drain cleaning with flat-rate maintenance agreements and 24/7 emergency response on the same schedule as our residential service.
Sewer Cleaning and Sewer Line Services in Aurora CO
Who Is Responsible for the Sewer Line in Aurora CO?
The homeowner is responsible for the sewer lateral from the home's foundation to the city sewer main under the street. Aurora Water maintains the city main. If the blockage is in your lateral, which is the case the overwhelming majority of the time, the repair cost belongs to the homeowner.
Your Responsibility (Sewer Lateral)
From your foundation walls all the way to the main street connection. Blockages, tree roots, and structural issues here require a professional technician to resolve.
City Responsibility (Sewer Main)
Aurora Water handles the primary shared street main. A clean sewer lateral camera inspection confirms exactly which side of the city connection your line's issue sits on.
Trenchless Sewer Repair Aurora CO â No Digging Required
CIPP pipe lining inserts a resin-saturated liner into the existing pipe and cures it in place to form a smooth new pipe interior without excavation. Pipe bursting pulls a new pipe through the old line while breaking the original pipe outward. Both methods restore full function with minimal surface disruption. Whether your Aurora sewer lateral qualifies for trenchless repair depends on the damage type and pipe size, which a camera inspection determines.
Sewer Line Repair and Replacement Aurora CO
When a camera inspection reveals a collapsed section, severe pipe belly, or Orangeburg pipe past usable condition, cleaning is not the right answer. We present repair and replacement options with written estimates before any work begins. This conversation comes up regularly for homes in Del Mar, Aurora Highlands, and Heather Gardens where 1980s era clay tile laterals are now at or past their practical lifespan.

Drain and Sewer Cleaning in Aurora CO â Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Aurora drain keep clogging even after I had it snaked?
Recurring clogs in Aurora homes almost always indicate a structural issue. The three most common causes are root regrowth inside the pipe, a pipe belly where Aurora's clay soil caused the drain line to sag and collect debris, or mineral scale from hard water that narrowed the pipe interior. Snaking opens a hole through the problem without removing what is on the pipe walls. A camera inspection shows exactly which of these applies to your line.
How much does drain cleaning cost in Aurora CO?
Single-fixture drain cleaning in Aurora typically runs between one hundred and two hundred seventy-five dollars. Main sewer line cleaning costs between one hundred seventy-five and five hundred dollars. Hydro jetting, the recommended long-term solution for Aurora's hard water conditions, runs between three hundred and six hundred dollars. Camera inspection adds one hundred fifty to three hundred dollars when not included. Roko Drain Cleaning provides written estimates on-site before any work begins.
Is the sewer line my responsibility or Aurora Water's?
The homeowner owns the sewer lateral from the home's foundation to the city main under the street. Aurora Water owns and maintains the city main. If the blockage is in your lateral, you pay for it. A camera inspection confirms exactly where the problem sits relative to the city connection. Aurora Water's customer line is 303-739-7388.
What causes slow drains specifically in Aurora homes?
Aurora's four contributing factors are: 13.4 GPG hard water that deposits mineral scale on pipe walls, bentonite clay soil that constantly shifts and cracks pipe joints, aging clay tile or cast iron pipe in homes built before 1995, and Colorado freeze-thaw cycles at 5,400 feet that move the soil around buried pipes each winter. Most Aurora homeowners dealing with recurring slow drains are experiencing at least two of these simultaneously.
Do I need to dig up my yard to fix a sewer line in Aurora?
Not necessarily. Trenchless methods including CIPP pipe lining and pipe bursting replace or repair most Aurora sewer laterals without significant excavation, working through existing access points. Whether your line qualifies for trenchless repair depends on the type and extent of damage, which a camera inspection determines.
How often should Aurora homeowners schedule drain cleaning?
Annual cleaning is appropriate for most Aurora homes given the city's hard water conditions. Homes built before 1985, properties with mature trees within twenty feet of the sewer lateral, or any home with a confirmed root intrusion history should schedule service every six months. Commercial food service operations should maintain quarterly cleaning to manage Aurora's documented grease buildup issues.
What should I never put down my Aurora drains?
Aurora Water's fats, oils, and grease program identifies FOG materials as a leading cause of sewer backups throughout the city. Cooking grease, butter, and oils should go in a sealed container in the trash, not down the drain. So-called flushable wipes do not break down in Aurora's older sewer infrastructure. Paper towels, dental floss, and cotton products should also never enter any drain or toilet.
What is Orangeburg pipe and do Aurora homes have it?
Orangeburg pipe is a fiber-based sewer material used in residential construction from the 1940s through the mid-1960s. Made from pressed wood pulp and pitch, it softens and deforms with moisture over time and eventually collapses. Aurora homes built before 1965, particularly near East Colfax Avenue and the streets around the former Fitzsimons Army Medical Center site, are candidates for Orangeburg pipe. Camera inspection confirms whether your home has it.
