Clogged drain cleaning is the process of locating a blockage inside a drain line, removing it with mechanical or hydraulic tools, and confirming the pipe is clear. We start with a visual check and a flow test, then run a drain snake or auger cable through the cleanout or fixture. Grease, hair, soap scum, and root intrusion are the usual suspects. Once the line is open, we flush it and check for slow drainage or drain odor that signals a leftover buildup.
Greer homes deal with clogged drains year-round, but fall and winter bring the worst calls. Tree roots keep growing in older cast iron pipe, and holiday cooking pushes grease through kitchen lines that were already half-blocked. If you need clogged drain service in Greer, South Carolina, we can usually be there the same day. We also handle clogged drain snaking Greer SC for lines that a plunger or store-bought enzyme drain cleaner will not touch.
Every clogged drain call includes the basics: diagnosis, clearing, testing, and cleanup. If we find a bigger problem like root intrusion or a collapsed sewer line, we show you the camera footage and quote the repair separately. No surprise charges on the invoice.
We ask which fixtures are backing up and run a flow test on the affected drain. If the clog is in a main line, we camera it. This tells us whether we need a drain snake, a rooter machine, or hydro jetting. Diagnosis is included in the service price.
We use a drain snake, auger cable, or rooter machine to break up the blockage. The tool depends on the pipe material and clog type. Grease gets a cutting head, hair gets a smaller auger, and roots get a root cutting chain. We work the line until water flows freely.
If the pipe is scaled or greasy, we follow with hydro jetting at 3,000 to 4,000 PSI. This scrubs the pipe walls and removes buildup that a snake leaves behind. It is the best way to prevent a quick re-clog. We camera the line first to confirm it can handle the pressure.
After clearing, we run hot water through the fixture for several minutes and watch the flow. On main lines, we camera the pipe again to confirm no debris is left. If the drain still runs slow, we keep working. You do not pay until the water drains properly.
We wipe down the work area, reseat the cleanout cap or floor drain grate, and leave you a written summary of what we found. If we saw root intrusion or a bellied pipe, we note it. You also get a recommendation for drain line maintenance if the line is prone to clogs.
You call (864)403-1974 or book online. We ask which fixture is backing up, whether it is one drain or several, and if you have a cleanout. That tells us whether to send a standard drain truck or a hydro jetting machine. Most calls get a 2-hour arrival window, and we text when the technician is on the way.
The technician pulls the cleanout cap or removes the fixture trap and runs a sewer camera if the clog is in a main line. On sink and shower calls, we check the P-trap first because hair and soap scum collect there. This step takes 10 to 20 minutes and tells us exactly what we are dealing with.
We feed a drain snake or auger cable through the line and work it until the blockage breaks up. Grease clogs get a rooter machine with a cutting head. Root intrusion gets a root cutting chain. If the pipe is scaled or greasy, we follow with hydro jetting at 3,000 to 4,000 PSI to scrub the walls clean.

Used to inspect main lines and find root intrusion, bellied pipe, or collapsed sewer line. The crawler gives us a clear view of the pipe interior.

A homeowner in Downtown Greer had a kitchen sink that drained slowly for weeks. By Thanksgiving, water stood in the basin after every meal. A store-bought drain cleaner opened a pinhole but the clog returned in two days.
After: We snaked the branch line, then hydro jetted at 3,500 PSI to scrub the grease from the pipe walls. The sink now drains in under 10 seconds. We also advised them to pour grease into a can, not the drain.

Typical 2026 pricing in Greer runs $150 to $350 for a sink, shower, or tub clog, and $250 to $600 for a main sewer line. The price depends on access, clog depth, and whether we need hydro jetting.

A sink or shower clog is easier to reach than a main line clog. Main line clogs require a cleanout access and sometimes a camera inspection. The deeper the clog, the more time and equipment it takes.
Get a quote ↗Cast iron pipe can be fragile, so we use a gentler snake. PVC and ABS pipe can handle more aggressive tools. If the pipe is scaled or cracked, hydro jetting may be needed, which adds to the cost.
Get a quote ↗Hair and soap scum are quick to clear. Grease and roots take longer and may require hydro jetting or root cutting. If the clog is solid, like a foreign object, we may need a camera to locate it.

✓ Verified“We had water backing up in the basement every time the washing machine drained. Turns out roots had gotten into the main line. The crew ran a root cutting chain through it and cameraed the pipe after. They showed me the footage and explained what to watch for. No backups since, and that was six months ago.”
