About this service
Emergency Drain Cleaning for Beaverton homes
A clogged drain turns into an emergency fast. A kitchen sink full of greasy water the night before a holiday, a shower that floods the bathroom floor, a basement floor drain pushing water back up: none of these can wait for a convenient appointment. Our emergency drain cleaning service is built for exactly these moments, with phones answered around the clock and plumbers out the same day.
Clearing the clog is only half the job. A drain that stops completely usually has a reason, whether that is years of grease buildup in a kitchen line, hair and soap in a shower trap, or a problem further down the main line that is backing water up into the lowest fixture. We clear the blockage, then tell you what caused it so you know whether it was a one-off or a sign of something bigger.

Warning signs
Signs You Need Emergency Drain Cleaning
When to call
Call right away if water is backing up into a tub, shower or floor drain, or if more than one fixture is affected at the same time. That pattern usually means the main line is involved, and every flush makes it worse. A single slow bathroom sink can usually wait a day, but a kitchen sink full of standing water is worth clearing tonight before it spills.
Kitchen grease is behind a large share of the stopped drains we clear in Beaverton, especially after holidays. Grease poured down the sink cools in the pipe, and in older homes with long kitchen runs it builds up fastest.

- Fruit flies around a drainDrain flies breed in the buildup inside slow lines.
Questions
Emergency Drain Cleaning FAQs
Should I use a chemical drain cleaner first?
We advise against it on a fully stopped drain. Chemical cleaners rarely clear a complete blockage and leave caustic water sitting in the pipe, which makes the repair harder and less safe.
Why do several drains back up at once?
When two or more fixtures back up together, the clog is usually in the main drain line where branches meet, not in any one sink or tub. That needs main line clearing.
Can you clear a drain in the middle of the night?
Yes. Our phones are answered 24 hours a day and we provide same-day service, so a stopped drain does not have to wait until morning.
How do I keep my kitchen drain from clogging again?
Keep grease and oil out of the sink, scrape plates into the trash and run plenty of water after using the disposal. If it keeps clogging, the line may need a deeper cleaning.
