Call Now — (833) 338-2528Same drain clogging repeatedly
In Denver this almost always points to mineral scale, root intrusion, or corroded pipe — not just a surface clog. Another snake will not fix it. You need a camera and a deep clean.
Buying a home in Denver
Denver has tens of thousands of homes built before 1960 in Capitol Hill, Baker, Highlands, Curtis Park, and Park Hill. Standard inspections miss the buried lateral. For $125–$300 a camera check shows you what you're buying before you close.
One slow sink, tub, or shower
A same-day snake visit usually clears it in under an hour.

Denver 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 Denver
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 Denver Chooses Us Over Other Drain Cleaning Companies
Why Drains Clog Faster in Denver Than Most Cities
Root Intrusion in Historic Denver Neighborhoods
Capitol Hill, Baker, Highlands, Curtis Park, and Park Hill were built between 1890 and 1940 on clay and cast iron pipe. Freeze-thaw cycles crack joints every winter, and Denver's mature elms and cottonwoods drive roots straight into those failures. A snake cuts through roots but leaves them behind — they grow back within weeks. Jetting removes them from the full wall, and a camera confirms whether the joint needs spot repair.
Grease Buildup in High-Density Near-Downtown Neighborhoods
Capitol Hill, Five Points, and near-downtown rentals run heavy kitchen and bathroom loads through pipe sized for single-family use. Grease coats the walls, moderate Denver Water hardness adds mineral scale, and the pipe narrows faster than in lower-density neighborhoods. Jetting scours the full wall and resets the bore.
Denver Neighborhood Drain Breakdown
Historic Core (Capitol Hill, Baker, Highlands, Curtis Park)
Homes from 1890 to 1940 on original clay and cast iron. Root intrusion through cracked joints is the primary issue. Camera inspection and trenchless spot repair save the most money here.
Near-Downtown Rentals (Five Points, RiNo, Near Colfax)
Multi-unit buildings generating heavy grease and hair loads through undersized pipe. Scheduled jetting between tenants keeps emergency calls down.
East Denver and Stapleton (Park Hill, Montbello)
Mid-century galvanized steel in Park Hill has corroded and narrowed. Stapleton and Green Valley Ranch run newer PVC — problems there are grease and garbage disposal waste, not structural failure.
Signs Your Denver 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.
