Professional Drain Cleaning in Bergen County

Absolute Precision Plumbing & Heating provides professional drain cleaning in Saddle Brook and across Bergen County, NJ. Our plumbers clear kitchen sinks, bathroom sinks, tubs and showers, laundry drains, floor drains and main sewer lines. Because every clog has a cause, we use drain snakes, hydro jetting and a camera on every job.

A slow or gurgling drain will not fix itself. Call us at (551) 257-6200 as soon as you notice a problem. For a drain emergency, reach our 24/7 hotline at 855-462-2765 (855 Go Absolute).

Every Drain in Your Home

Clogs do not only happen in the kitchen, so our drain cleaning covers all of these:

  • Kitchen sinks
  • Bathroom sinks
  • Tubs and showers
  • Laundry drains
  • Floor drains
  • Main sewer lines

Whether it is one stubborn sink or a recurring backup, we use a camera to find the cause. We look for the reason, not just the blockage. If the pipe itself is damaged, we also handle sewer line repair, so you never need a second company.

What Causes Clogged Drains in Bergen County

Most of the drain problems we see in Saddle Brook and nearby towns come from three things:

  • Tree roots. There are many mature trees in our area, and roots grow into small cracks and joints in the line. They keep growing until they block it.
  • Kitchen grease. Cooking grease and food waste build up inside kitchen drain lines a little at a time. Eventually water can barely get through.
  • Old clay pipes. Many older Bergen County homes still have clay pipes. Clay can crack and collapse, and a cleaning cannot fix that. The camera shows us when a line needs repair or replacement instead.

The photos show clogged drain lines from our own jobs. Rust, scale and sludge can close off most of a pipe long before the drain stops working completely. That is why a slow drain deserves attention early.

How We Clear Your Drain

Not every clog needs the same tool, so we match the method to the problem.

Drain snakes

A drain snake, also called a cable, breaks through a blockage and pulls it out. It also works well for many clogs in sinks, tubs, showers and floor drains.

Hydro jetting

Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour grease, scale and roots off the inside of the pipe. Unlike a snake, it does more than punch a hole through the clog. However, we hydro jet only drain lines up to 2 inches.

A camera on every job

We always run a camera through the line. It shows us what is causing the clog and what condition the pipe is in. As a result, you get a clear answer about what is wrong and how to fix it.

Signs You Need Drain Cleaning

Drain problems usually give warning signs before a full backup. Call us if you notice any of these:

  • Water draining slowly from a sink, tub or shower
  • Gurgling sounds from drains or toilets
  • Water pooling around a floor drain
  • Bad smells coming from a drain
  • The same drain clogging again and again

If several drains back up at the same time, the problem is likely in your main sewer line. That takes a camera and the right equipment, so call us right away.

Drain Cleaning Questions

Do you run a camera on every drain cleaning?

Yes, we always run a camera because it shows what is causing the clog and how the pipe looks.

What is hydro jetting?

Hydro jetting is high-pressure water that scours grease, scale and roots off the inside of the pipe. We use it on drain lines up to 2 inches.

Yes, we take emergency calls around the clock, every day, including holidays. Call (551) 257-6200 or our 24/7 hotline at 855-462-2765 (855 Go Absolute).

How much does drain cleaning cost?

The cost depends on which drain it is, how far the clog is and what the camera finds. We give upfront, flat-rate pricing before any work begins.
