Why Bakersfield Drains Get Clogged
From the older plumbing systems in neighborhoods near the Fox Theater to the modern homes in Seven Oaks, every property is at risk. In the Central Valley, hard water mineral buildup often narrows pipes, making them more susceptible to catching hair, grease, and soap scum.
When you face a clogged drain, your first instinct might be to grab a bottle of chemical cleaner. Don’t do it. These harsh chemicals can eat away at your pipes and rarely solve the root problem. We use safe, mechanical methods like hydro-jetting to clear the blockage without damaging your infrastructure.

FAQ's
Why does my kitchen sink keep clogging?
Kitchen drains often clog due to grease, food scraps, and soap scum building up over time. Even if you have a garbage disposal, fibrous foods and grease can solidify further down the pipe, creating a stubborn blockage that requires professional snaking or hydro-jetting.
Can baking soda and vinegar clear a severe clog?
For minor, slow drains, this natural mixture can help break down soap scum. However, for a fully clogged drain where water is standing still, baking soda is rarely effective. You need a mechanical auger (snake) to physically break through the obstruction.
Is hydro-jetting safe for old pipes?
Yes, when performed by a professional. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour pipes clean. Our technicians inspect your pipes with a camera first to ensure they are structurally sound enough for the process, making it a safe and highly effective solution.
Do you charge extra for nights and weekends?
We offer 24/7 emergency service because we know plumbing disasters don’t follow a schedule. We provide clear, upfront pricing before we start any work, regardless of the time, so you can make an informed decision without worry.
How do I prevent tree roots from clogging my sewer line?
Tree roots seek out water sources, entering pipes through tiny cracks. The best prevention is regular maintenance. We recommend an annual camera inspection to catch root intrusion early, allowing us to clear them out before they crush the pipe.
Smart plumbing maintenance not only prevents costly damage but also helps conserve water. The EPA’s WaterSense program provides valuable tips on saving water and improving efficiency in every home.
