## Questions

### Cable or hydro-jetting: which do I need?

A cable clears most sink, shower, and toilet blockages. Grease buildup and tree roots come back unless the pipe is jetted clean; we recommend it when the camera shows either.

### Should I use drain cleaner first?

Please don't. It rarely clears a full blockage, it can damage older pipes, and it is dangerous for the plumber who opens the drain after you.

### What does the 30-day warranty cover?

If the same drain blocks again within 30 days, we come back and clear it free. A camera inspection on that visit is free too.

### What counts as one drain?

One sink, tub, shower, toilet, or floor drain. The main sewer line is priced as a sewer job.
