A kitchen sink that drains slower every week, a shower that backs up mid-rinse, a floor drain that gurgles when the washer runs — these rarely fix themselves, and snaking the surface clog usually just buys a few weeks. Our Gateway drain team runs camera inspections to find the actual cause.
Every drain job in Gateway starts with a look inside the pipe, not a guess based on symptoms alone.
Every technician carries valid credentials and liability coverage — standard on every drain call.
Trucks stocked with jetting and camera equipment are staged around Gateway so a backed-up drain doesn't sit for days.
The diagnosis determines the price, and that price is confirmed in writing before we start clearing anything.
These are the drain issues we see most often across Gateway, each handled with the equipment built for that specific cause.
Jetting scours the full diameter of the line, which is why it outperforms snaking on recurring grease and buildup problems.
A waterproof camera is fed through the line to locate the exact blockage, a bellied section, or root intrusion before any tool touches the pipe.
For a straightforward single-fixture clog, a mechanical auger clears the blockage without the cost of jetting equipment.
Tree roots that have worked into a sewer or drain line get cut and cleared with a root-cutting head, then the line is reassessed for damage.
Grease buildup in kitchen lines is cleared with jetting, which handles congealed grease far better than a cable.
Scheduled jetting on problem lines keeps grease and scale from building back up between service visits.
Tell dispatch which fixtures are affected and whether it's a slow drain or a full backup — that shapes which truck gets sent.
Our Gateway trucks carry both cable and jetting equipment, so a second trip is rarely needed.
You'll see or hear what's actually in the line before agreeing to the recommended fix.
We re-run the camera after clearing so you can see the difference, backed by a workmanship warranty on the service.
"Camera inspection found roots in the main line that two previous plumbers missed entirely." — Homeowner, Gateway
"Main line backup on a Sunday and they had it cleared before it backed up into the tub again." — Gateway resident
"Quoted the jetting price after the camera run, exactly what I paid, no surprises." — Gateway customer
We serve Gateway proper and nearby Gateway, AK communities, prioritizing full backups ahead of routine slow-drain calls.
We don't upsell jetting by default; the footage determines which method actually fixes the problem.
We assess pipe material and condition via camera first; jetting pressure is adjusted for older or more fragile lines.
Ask dispatch for current camera inspection pricing when you call — it's disclosed before we schedule.
Yes — roots seek out moisture and can enter through small cracks or joints in sewer and drain lines, especially older clay pipe.
We can recommend a maintenance interval based on your trap size and kitchen volume after the first service visit.
Recurring clogs after snaking are the classic sign jetting or a camera diagnosis is actually needed.
