Canon City Drain Cleaning and Sewer Services
Every job starts with finding what is actually wrong. Flat price before we touch anything.
Drain Snaking and Rooter Service
A motor-driven cable runs 75 to 100 feet into the line, cuts through hair, grease, and soft buildup, and pulls the clog out. Most visits are done in under an hour.
$100 – $300Hydro Jetting Near You in Canon City
High pressure water scours the full pipe wall — flushing out grease, mineral scale, and root debris. The pipe runs at full diameter again. We camera the pipe before jetting every time.
$350 – $1,400Sewer Camera Inspection
A camera stops the guessing. We run a waterproof camera down the line while you watch the monitor with us. You get the recorded video and a plain written summary to keep.
$125 – $500Main Sewer Line Cleaning
When every drain in the house backs up or slows at once, the blockage is in the main sewer line. We camera first, then clear it with the right tool for the problem.
$150 – $500Sewer Backup Repair and Trenchless Replacement
Pipe bursting and pipe lining work from two small access points — lawn and driveway stay untouched. When digging is genuinely the right call, we say so.
$1,500 – $15,000Kitchen Drain Cleaning
Grease, oil, and food cool and solidify where the kitchen drain narrows. We clear it at the source with a cable sized for kitchen pipe or jet the line when grease has built up over years.
from $100Bathroom and Shower Drain Cleaning
Hair and soap scum bind together in the trap and trap arm. We pull the cover, run a cable through to where the clog sits, and pull it out completely.
from $100Clogged Toilet and Floor Drain Cleaning
A toilet that gurgles, overflows, or refuses to flush needs a closet auger. Floor drains backing up during laundry are a common main line signal.

Why Canon City Chooses Us Over Other Drain Cleaning Companies
Why Drains Clog Faster in Canon City Than Most Cities
Royal Gorge Arkansas River Hard Water
Canon City draws from the Arkansas River at the Royal Gorge at 10–14 grains per gallon — among the hardest water on the Front Range. Mineral scale deposits inside pipe walls at a rate significantly faster than Denver, Colorado Springs, or even Pueblo. Even 15-year-old PVC in newer Canon City sections shows notable scale accumulation. In historic downtown homes, 100+ years of this hard water has deposited scale layer by layer inside pipe that may already be structurally compromised.
1880s–1920s Historic Core on Century-Old Pipe
Canon City was founded in 1860 as one of Colorado's earliest cities. The historic downtown core has homes and commercial buildings from the 1880s–1920s on cast iron, clay, and early galvanized pipe that has been in service for 100–140 years. Royal Gorge hard water has deposited mineral scale inside these pipes for over a century. Root intrusion from mature historic trees compounds the problem. Camera inspection on historic Canon City properties almost always reveals significant structural issues.
Canon City Neighborhood Drain Breakdown
Historic Downtown Canon City (1880s–1920s)
Century-old clay, cast iron, and early galvanized pipe. Royal Gorge hard water scale, root intrusion, and structural cracking all present. Camera essential — old pipe is often too fragile for full pressure jetting.
Mid-Century Canon City (1940s–1970s)
Galvanized steel with 50–80 years of Royal Gorge hard water scale and corrosion. Bore often significantly reduced. Camera and jetting or pipe lining.
Newer Canon City Sections (1980s–present)
PVC with Royal Gorge hard water depositing scale at an accelerated rate. Even 15-year-old pipe shows significant scale accumulation.
Signs Your Canon City Drain or Sewer Line Needs Cleaning
Call before a slow drain becomes a flooded basement:
Multiple drains slow at once
Every drain in your home connects to one main sewer line. When several slow down together, that line is the problem.
Toilet gurgles after flushing
Air bubbling back past a partial main line clog — one of the earliest warning signs.
Sewer smell inside or in the yard
A cracked pipe is venting gas into the house or soil — joint failure in most cases.
A wet, green patch in the yard
A leaking sewer line is feeding that grass from below.
The same drain clogs every few weeks
Cleared but not fixed. The buildup was never fully removed.

Who Owns the Line and Why It Matters
The city owns the main sewer line under the street. You own the lateral — the pipe running from your foundation to that main. Virtually every residential sewer problem happens on your lateral, on your dime. Most homeowner insurance policies exclude sewer backup unless you add it as a rider. That rider typically costs $50 to $150 per year — a fraction of what a basement cleanup costs.
