Drain Cleaning in Delaware, OH
Clogged Drain? We'll Clear It.
A slow shower drain is annoying. A main line backing up into the basement floor drain is an emergency. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of Delaware clears every kind of clog across Delaware and Union counties, from a single kitchen sink to the main sewer line, and we can show you on camera what caused it.
We're The Punctual Plumber. If we're late, we pay you $5 a minute, up to $300.
Drain Services We Offer
Sink, Tub, Shower and Toilet Clogs
Hair, soap, grease, food and the occasional toy. We clear the clog without damaging your pipes or fixtures, and we'll tell you if the same drain keeps giving you trouble for a reason.
Main Line Drain Cleaning
If more than one drain is slow, water comes up in a floor drain, or toilets gurgle when the washer drains, the problem is usually in the main line. We clear it from the cleanout and get your whole house draining again.
Hydro Jetting
Cabling punches a hole through a clog. Hydro jetting scours the whole pipe with high-pressure water, clearing grease, scale, sludge and roots from wall to wall. It's the best option for recurring clogs and heavy buildup.
Camera Inspection
When a drain keeps clogging, we run a camera down the line to see exactly what's going on: roots, a belly in the pipe, a crack, or a broken joint. You see the video, and you get a straight answer about whether cleaning will fix it or the pipe needs repair.
Floor Drains and Laundry Drains
Basement floor drains and laundry standpipes clog more than most people realize, and a backed-up floor drain is often the first sign of a main line problem. We clear them and check the line behind them.
Signs You Need Drain Cleaning
- Water draining slowly from sinks, tubs or showers
- Gurgling sounds from drains or toilets
- Water backing up in the basement floor drain
- Bad smells coming from drains
- More than one drain clogged at the same time
- A clog that comes back after you clear it
Why Drains Clog Here
Tree roots. Mature trees in older neighborhoods in Delaware, Marysville and Powell send roots into sewer lines looking for water, especially through the joints of older clay and cast iron pipe. Roots come back, so a line with roots usually needs regular jetting or a repair.
Hard water. Minerals in our water leave scale inside drain lines and cast iron pipe over time, which catches grease and debris and narrows the pipe.
Grease. Cooking grease goes down as a liquid and hardens in the line. It's the most common cause of kitchen and main line clogs we see, especially after the holidays.
