Recurring clogs are almost always a symptom, not the problem itself — grease buildup, root intrusion, or a bellied line. Our Ely, IA drain technicians diagnose before they clear, so the fix actually holds.
Every drain job in Ely starts with a look inside the pipe, not a guess based on symptoms alone.
Our Ely, IA drain crew is licensed and insured, trained specifically on camera equipment and hydro-jetting systems.
Trucks stocked with jetting and camera equipment are staged around Ely so a backed-up drain doesn't sit for days.
You'll get a price after the camera inspection, before any jetting or excavation work begins.
