Store-bought drain cleaners dissolve soap and light grease. They do nothing for root intrusion, grease buildup 40 feet in, or a collapsed pipe segment. Masters Plumbing Service's Drain Cleaning team in Gregory arrives with professional-grade augers and hydro-jetting units that actually resolve the blockage.

Retail drain products and inexperienced plumbers share one problem: they treat the symptom, not the cause. Our approach combines the right equipment with the right diagnostic process.
Hydro-jetting is the only method that restores full pipe diameter. A cable auger punches through a blockage; a jetter removes the blockage material from the pipe wall entirely, significantly extending the interval before the next cleaning is needed.
A camera inspection saves you money by showing us exactly what we're dealing with. It also protects you from paying to clear a blockage that's actually hiding a structural pipe failure that will recur immediately.
We clear kitchen drains, bathroom sink and shower drains, floor drains, laundry drains, and main sewer lines. Our equipment scales from a 1/2" kitchen drain line to a 6" commercial main — same certified technician, same professional-grade tools.
We photograph or record camera footage of the drain before and after clearing so you can see exactly what was there and that it's gone. Every job comes with a flat-rate quote before any work begins — no hourly-rate surprises.
Not every blocked drain is the same problem. Here's how our team approaches each type — with the specific tools and technique that actually resolve it.
Grease blockages in kitchen drain lines often occur 10–40 feet from the drain opening, past the p-trap, where the line cools and FOG solidifies. Our jetting equipment reaches and clears these deposits where a plunger or retail product cannot.
Hair and soap scum are the most common bathroom drain blockages. They bond to the pipe walls inside the p-trap and in the drain arm, forming a mat that progressively constricts flow. Our techs remove the drain cover, clear the p-trap obstruction with a hand snake or drum auger, and flush the line.
When multiple fixtures are draining slowly or backing up simultaneously, the blockage is typically in the main sewer line — the 4" or 6" pipe that carries all household waste to the municipal main or septic system. We access the main line through the cleanout, run a CCTV camera to identify the obstruction type, then clear with a sectional cable machine or hydro-jetter depending on what we find.
Floor drain traps can dry out and allow sewer gas into the structure if the drain isn't used regularly. We clear blockages, re-water the trap, and can install a trap primer if the drain is prone to drying in Gregory's climate.
A preventive jetting program documented over multiple visits gives you both clean pipes and a camera record of pipe condition over time — useful for catching structural deterioration before it causes an emergency.
Our inspection reports are accepted by real estate attorneys, home buyers, and insurers as documented evidence of drain system condition. If you're buying or selling a home in Gregory, a pre-purchase drain scope is one of the best $300 you can spend.
We don't show up and start snaking blind. Our approach uses a camera-first diagnostic protocol to confirm what we're clearing before selecting the method.
Tell our dispatcher which fixtures are affected — one slow drain vs. multiple backed-up fixtures tells us whether we're likely dealing with a localized clog or a main line blockage. We schedule same-day when slots are available.
Before clearing anything, we run a CCTV camera into the line to see blockage type, location, and pipe condition. This prevents treating a structural pipe failure with a jetting pass that won't hold.
Based on the camera findings, we present you with a flat-rate quote and explain exactly which method we're using — electric auger, hydro-jet, root cutter — and why. No work begins until you approve.
If anything was found during the camera run that warrants monitoring or repair, it's noted in the written report so you have a record — useful for planning future maintenance or a repair conversation.

Called about a kitchen drain that three other plumbers had snaked without long-term success. Masters Plumbing Service ran a camera first and found grease buildup 28 feet in, past where any hand snake reaches. Hydro-jetted it, re-scoped to confirm clean, and the drain has run perfectly in the months since.
All three bathrooms drained slowly and the lowest floor toilet gurgled every time an upstairs fixture ran — classic main line partial blockage. Masters Plumbing Service's tech accessed the cleanout, ran the camera, and found root intrusion at a clay tile joint about 40 feet from the house. He cut the roots with the root cutter attachment and re-scoped to confirm clear flow. Also noted a joint offset at 68 feet that we'll need to line eventually — good to know before it becomes a full backup.
Had a pre-purchase drain scope done on a home we were buying. Masters Plumbing Service's tech ran every accessible drain and the main sewer line with the camera, gave us a written report with timestamps and footage. Found a small bellied section in the main line that the seller agreed to repair before closing. Worth every penny for the negotiating power alone.
