How Professional Drain Snaking Works
When everyday plunging doesn’t cut it, professional drain snaking is a proven solution for stubborn clogs. At ClearView, we use high-quality drain augers that can maneuver through your pipes safely and efficiently—no damage, no guesswork.
Here’s how our process works:
- Initial inspection: Before snaking begins, we use advanced camera equipment to locate the blockage and determine what’s causing it. This helps us choose the right tool for the job.
- Breaking up the clog: A flexible metal cable with a rotating coil is carefully inserted into your drain. As the cable moves through the pipe, the coil either breaks apart the clog or pulls it out completely.
- Flushing and testing: Once the obstruction is cleared, we run water through the line to confirm proper flow. If we discover any damage or buildup that could cause future problems, we’ll recommend the next steps for repair or maintenance.
Professional snaking is one of the safest and most effective ways to remove tough blockages caused by hair, grease, and everyday debris. It’s quick, affordable, and ideal for restoring normal drainage without the need for more intensive cleaning methods.
Drain Inspection and Repair
Before we blast anything with water, we take a close look. Our drain and sewer camera inspection tools let us pinpoint what’s causing your clog and where it’s located so we can recommend the right fix.
If we uncover a damaged or collapsed pipe, we’ll walk you through your options for repair. We’re also happy to coordinate with our sewer line repair services team if needed.
Most Common Causes for Clogged Drains
We’ve been Calgary’s go-to drain cleaning experts for decades, and over the years, we’ve seen a lot of clogged drains. Here are some of the top culprits we see:
- Grease buildup: When cooking and frying oils go down your kitchen sink, they can congeal and create stubborn clogs.
- Hair and soap scum: In bathroom sinks and showers, these are the major offenders for drain clogs.
- Foreign objects: When you flush something that can’t go down the drain, you can expect plumbing issues. Kids’ toys, hygiene products, and “flushable” wipes are some of the most common causes of backups.
- Tree roots: Older homes, particularly in heavily wooded areas like Bearspaw or Chestermere, are susceptible to intrusion from tree roots.
No matter what’s causing your clogged drain, our team can clear it fast and give you tips to help prevent it from happening again.

Frequently Asked Questions About Drain Cleaning Services
Is it safe to use chemical drain cleaners?
We don’t recommend using chemical drain cleaners. While they might offer a quick fix, these products contain harsh ingredients that can corrode your pipes over time, damage fixtures, and create safety hazards if inhaled or mixed with other substances. Professional cleaning methods like snaking or hydrojetting services are safer, more effective, and better for your plumbing in the long run.
How do I know if I need professional drain cleaning?
You likely need professional drain cleaning if a simple DIY fix doesn’t do the trick. If you’re dealing with recurring clogs, slow drains, or foul odours, it’s time to call in the pros. There might be an underlying problem deeper in your pipes.
