Drain Choke Service Pricing

When we come to repair a drain choke, we do not rush the moment we arrive. A drain tells its own story through the way water behaves. Sometimes the water rises quickly and stays there, unmoving. Sometimes it sinks halfway, then stops with a soft, tired sound. Even the smell around the drain can offer clues about what has built up below — soap residue, dirt from many showers, or old waste that has settled over time. So we take a short moment to observe. This helps us understand where to begin.

Once the work starts, we use steady, careful movements. The pipes beneath the floor bend sharply, and any sudden push can make the blockage settle deeper. We guide the rod in small motions, letting the trapped waste shift little by little. When the pressure changes — that faint softening you can feel through the tool — we know the blockage has begun to release. After that, we pour a small stream of water to test the opening. If the water still hesitates, we continue until the path runs without struggle.

Clearing the choke is only the first step. We then check the fittings: the trap below, the rubber seals, the joints that hold the drainage line in place. A single loose seal or a worn ring can invite the same trouble again. We replace any part that has weakened and adjust anything that has moved out of line. These corrections, though small, decide whether the drain will remain healthy.

Before leaving, we let water run for a little while. A proper drain pulls the water down in one quiet, unbroken motion. No swirling, no backing up. When the surface clears smoothly and the room becomes still again, we know the repair has settled well.
