You only really think about your sewer when there is a problem. Sewer issues can be a real headache. You need a solution now. No one wants their toilets, sinks and drains to suddenly stop working. For a business owner, this can mean a significant loss of revenue. For the homeowner, it can mean an uninhabitable dwelling. If you have a blockage or backup it could be from a build up of grease, soap, roots, or even a broken pipe.
Acting quickly when you notice signs of an issue is the best way to minimize the impact of a damaged or malfunctioning sewer system.
Drain-Away is equipped to diagnose and solve your drain issue.
You can't afford for your drains to stop working. More than manpower and willpower is necessary to unclog a drain. First you or your local plumber must diagnose the cause of the problem and have the right equipment to get the job done.
Drain-Away uses every type of drain cleaning machine out there, ranging from small hand snakes to motorized drain machines capable of clearing small clogs, roots and even big sewer mains.
The machine clears drains and sewers by rotating a flexible cable made of wire through the pipe. Attachments at the end of the cable aid the process by scraping, boring, or cutting through pipe blockages like roots and sludge.
Every type of drain blockage is different. Each requires the knowledge needed to choose the proper size cable and the right cutting head to resolve the toughest issues.
Our plumbing technicians have the specialized knowledge of the problems that arise and the necessary equipment to get the job done in the most effective way possible.
Hydro Jetting is a process which utilizes very high pressure water to clean pipes. The pressure quickly clears through years of stubborn debris in your pipes!
Slow and clogged drains are typically the product of months or years worth of buildup of grease, heavy soaps, and other clotting matter. There are several approaches to clearing clogged drains, but a common technique used in commercial settings can also be used in reseidential settings. It may be the sewer lines most effective cleaning.
Along with other traditional drain cleaning techniques, our team at Drain-Away Sewer and Drain Services is proud to offer hydro jetting.
All of our trucks are equipped with hydro jetters. We also utilize larger trailer mounted units for specialized applications.
We are available for emergency calls as well as routine preventative maintenance.

Grease Traps/ Interceptors are used in many commercial applications. They are found in most restaurants, food prep areas, commercial kitchens, and even some church kitchens. Grease Traps act like a catch basin. They separate the fats, oils, grease and solids that go down the drain from reaching the sewer. These are mandated in most municipalities to prevent waste from reaching water treatment plants.
As Grease traps separate the “grease” they begin to fill up and need to be serviced. If a grease trap is full of “grease” it can no longer do its job and will cause issues with buildup or backups in pipes and potentially cause issues in the municipality. Grease traps are designed to be regularly cleaned and serviced.
Drain-Away offers grease trap servicing. This involves pumping out the grease and solids in the tank so your system continues to work effectively.
Drain-Away has a variety of pumping equipment including trailer mounted units and a cart for harder to reach areas. If you have a tank, we can help you in an emergency and get your business on a regular pumping schedule to maintain and prevent future issues.
How far down the pipe is that clog? It’s sometimes hard to say. Are the pipes collecting a debris buildup that will soon turn into a clog? You may not know until that buildup has turned into a formidable obstruction.
If in the process of cleaning a drain the technician finds an issue with the pipe, he can use the high resolution camera to assist in identifying the problem. The line locator can be used to pinpoint the distance so the problem can be resolved with the least amount of repair.
Our expert drain cleaners can use a high resolution camera attached to flexible rod to examine your drains. This camera follows the twists and turns of your sewer or drain to look for obstructions like breaks in pipes or other issues that arise.
Camera inspection provides valuable information that your plumber can use to then conduct a thorough drain cleaning. There’s no guessing or speculating — with a drain camera, you know for sure.
Drain-Away offers a variety of commercial services. We can assist with commercial plumbing, pipe repairs, fixture installation, hot water heater installation, pipe excavation and more.
