One slow drain, or the whole house?
The first question is whether the clog is in one fixture or in the main line. That tells us what tool to use and how urgent it is.
One fixture is slow or stopped.
A kitchen sink, one bathroom sink or one shower. The clog is usually in that fixture's trap or branch line, close to the drain. That's a quick, routine clear.
Several fixtures act up at once.
The toilet gurgles when the washer drains, the tub fills when you flush, or water comes up the basement floor drain. That points to the main drain or sewer line. Stop running water and call us. It won't fix itself, and every flush adds to the backup.
Call (385) 775-3989Signs you need a drain cleaned
Slow or standing water, gurgling, sewer smells, and backups in a different fixture are the usual signs.
- Water draining slowly, or standing in the sink, tub or shower
- Gurgling sounds from drains or the toilet
- Sewer smell from a drain
- Water backing up in a different fixture than the one you're using
- Water or sewage coming up a floor drain or basement shower
- A drain that keeps clogging again after you clear it
What causes clogged drains
Most clogs come from grease, hair, wipes, roots or scale.
- Kitchen sinks
- Grease, oil and food scraps. Grease goes down warm and hardens on the pipe wall, and everything else sticks to it.
- Bathroom sinks, tubs and showers
- Hair and soap buildup.
- Toilets
- Too much paper, and "flushable" wipes, which don't break down like toilet paper.
- Main lines
- Tree roots getting into joints, a sagging or cracked pipe, or years of buildup in aging pipe.
- Hard-water scale
- Narrowing older drain lines over time.
That's general knowledge, not a diagnosis. The cause in your home is what we find when we open the line.
How we clear your drain
Our team finds the clog, clears it with the right tool, and tells you what caused it so you can keep it from coming back.
Rooter service (drain snaking)
A powered cable cuts through and pulls out the clog. This is the standard fix for most sink, tub, toilet and main-line clogs.
Hydro jetting
High-pressure water scours grease, scale and roots off the pipe walls. Best for lines that keep clogging.
About hydro jettingCamera inspection
A small camera shows what's inside the line, so you're not guessing whether it's a clog, roots or a broken pipe.
If the camera shows the pipe itself is cracked, collapsed or full of roots, see sewer line repair. We'll show you what we found and give you the options before any work.

Keeping drains clear in your home
Three habits prevent most repeat calls: wipe grease into the trash instead of the sink, use a hair catcher in showers, and only flush toilet paper.
If a drain clogs again within a few weeks of clearing, that's a sign of something deeper in the line. A camera inspection or hydro jetting is usually the next step.

Frequently asked questions
Still have a question? Call or text and you'll get a straight answer.
Call (385) 775-3989My kitchen sink is backing up badly. What should I do?
Stop running water and the dishwasher, and don't pour drain chemicals into standing water. If only the kitchen sink is affected, it's usually a grease and food clog in the kitchen line. Call or text Eruption Plumbing & Drains in Bluffdale at (385) 775-3989 and we'll clear it with an upfront price.
My main drain is backing up into the house. What do I do?
Stop using all water right away, including toilets, showers and the washer, because everything you drain adds to the backup. Keep people and pets away from any sewage. Then call or text (385) 775-3989. We answer sewer backups 24/7 in Bluffdale and nearby towns.
Why does my drain keep clogging?
A drain that clogs again soon after clearing usually has buildup on the pipe walls, like grease or scale, or a problem in the line, like roots or a sag. Snaking opens a path but may not clean the walls. Hydro jetting or a camera inspection usually finds and fixes the real cause.
What's the difference between a kitchen drain clog and a main line clog?
A kitchen clog only affects the kitchen sink and dishwasher. A main line clog affects several fixtures at once, often the lowest ones first, like a basement floor drain or shower. Main line clogs are more urgent because they can push sewage back into the house.
What affects the cost of drain cleaning?
Which drain is clogged, how easy it is to reach, what's in the line and which method it needs. A single sink is a quicker job than a main line full of roots. We give you a free estimate and an upfront price before any work starts.
