      FAQs

      How long does professional drain cleaning take?

      +

      A straightforward clog in a sink, shower, or toilet typically takes 30 to 60 minutes to clear with a drain snake. Main sewer line blockages or jobs requiring hydro jetting may take 1 to 3 hours, depending on severity and access. Your PlumbWize plumber will give you a time estimate after the initial assessment so you can plan your day.

      Can I clear a clogged drain myself, or do I need a plumber?

      +

      For a single slow drain, it is reasonable to try a plunger or a baking soda and vinegar flush first. But if the clog does not clear, if multiple drains are slow at the same time, or if you notice sewage odours or water backing up, call a professional. Pushing a stubborn clog deeper with DIY tools can make the problem worse and more expensive to fix.

      Do you charge extra for emergency or after-hours drain calls?

      +

      PlumbWize offers 24/7 emergency drain service across Burlington, Hamilton, and Oakville. We know clogged drains do not wait for business hours. When you call, we will let you know the cost upfront before dispatching a plumber. You will never be surprised by hidden after-hours fees. A backed-up drain can cause water damage quickly, so do not hesitate to call anytime.

      When should I call a plumber for a clogged drain?

      +

      Call a plumber if a plunger or basic DIY methods do not clear the clog, if multiple drains in your home are slow at the same time, if water is backing up into sinks or tubs, if you notice foul sewage odours, or if the same drain keeps clogging repeatedly. These are signs of a deeper blockage that requires professional equipment and diagnosis to resolve properly.

      What causes drains to keep clogging?

      +

      Recurring clogs are usually caused by buildup inside your pipes that a simple snaking does not fully remove. Common culprits include grease and food residue in kitchen drains, hair and soap scum in bathroom drains, mineral scale in older pipes, and tree root intrusion in main sewer lines. A camera inspection can pinpoint the exact cause, allowing it to be addressed permanently.

      What is a drain camera inspection and when is it needed?

      +

      A drain camera inspection involves feeding a small waterproof camera into your pipes to see exactly what is causing a blockage and assess the condition of your plumbing. It is recommended for recurring clogs, suspected tree root intrusion, older homes with aging pipes, or any time the cause of a drainage problem is not obvious. It takes the guesswork out of diagnosis and helps avoid unnecessary work.
