We select the cleaning method based on the condition of the drain system and the type of blockage present.
For localized clogs and common buildup, Drains R Us uses professional-grade mechanical drain cleaning equipment to break through obstructions and reopen the pipe channel safely.
For heavy grease, scale, or recurring buildup, Drains R Us uses hydro jetting to thoroughly clean pipe walls and restore full internal diameter.

When clogs are recurring or symptoms suggest deeper issues, we may recommend video pipe inspection to confirm the cause before or after cleaning


Drain cleaning is most effective when paired with preventive care. For properties with recurring issues, scheduled maintenance can reduce emergency situations and extend system lifespan.
Drains R Us provides drain cleaning services throughout Greater Boston and surrounding areas, including Boston, Cambridge, Somerville, Brookline, Newton, and Quincy.

High-use drains or properties with a history of clogs may benefit from periodic preventive cleaning, while others only require service when symptoms appear.
Hydro jetting is more effective when grease, scale, or heavy buildup coats the pipe interior and standard mechanical methods cannot fully restore flow.
