Drain cleaning company in Broomfield CO

The best way to clean your drains is with professional cable machines or hydro jetting equipment. These tools remove buildup without damaging your pipes. For routine maintenance between service calls, run hot water down your drains after each use. You can also pour a mixture of baking soda and vinegar down the drain once a month to help break up minor buildup. Avoid using store-bought chemical drain cleaners as they can damage pipes over time.

Drain cleaning costs in Broomfield typically range from $150 to $400 depending on the location and severity of the clog.

Plumbers recommend avoiding chemical drain cleaners because they can damage your pipes. The harsh chemicals generate heat and can corrode older metal pipes or weaken PVC connections over time. These products also rarely clear the full blockage - they may open a small hole but leave buildup on the pipe walls. Repeated use leads to bigger problems and more expensive repairs. Professional drain cleaning removes the entire clog safely.

Most homes benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years. If you have older pipes, large trees near your sewer line, or a history of clogs, annual cleaning is a good idea. Restaurants and commercial kitchens need more frequent service due to grease buildup. Regular cleaning prevents emergency backups and extends the life of your plumbing system.

Signs of a main sewer line clog include multiple drains backing up at once, gurgling sounds from toilets or drains, sewage odors inside your home, and water backing up in floor drains or showers when you flush the toilet. If only one drain is slow, the clog is likely in that specific line. When several fixtures are affected at the same time, the problem is usually in your main sewer line.

Standard homeowners insurance typically does not cover sewer line clogs or routine drain cleaning. However, if a covered event like a sudden pipe burst causes water damage inside your home, that damage may be covered. Some policies offer optional sewer line coverage as an add-on. We recommend checking with your insurance provider about your specific policy. We can provide documentation of repairs if needed for a claim.
