  • We had a BAD backup in our student rental. Richard came ~2 hours after we called, unclogged the drain and educated the kids. Fair price.

  • Richard came by and snaked our laundry room drain. He suggested a camera to look around and we had a collapsed section. Reasonable for fixing it all.

Clogged Sink Repair FAQ’s

Below are some of the most common questions we’ve received from customers regarding clogged sinks in their Niagara Region homes.

We don’t recommend it. Chemicals can damage finishes, traps, and some pipe materials while also making it dangerous for us if we come out. Mechanical clearing is much safer, lasts longer and allows you to find out if there’s an issue in your drains.

The blockage is typically past the cross-over tee. We clear the branch line, not just the trap, so both bowls drain evenly.

Recurring clogs usually mean buildup further down the drain line, poor slope, venting issues, or deteriorated pipe. The ladder is quite common in older century homes across St. Catharines. We can scope the line with a camera to see the root issue and fix it for good.

We can often arrive at your St. Catharines home the same day if it’s an emergency. For non urgent calls, we can coordinate a day and time that works best for you and your family.

Yes. If traps, tailpieces, or basket strainers are corroded or cracked, we’ll quote a reasonable priced replacement on the spot.
