Pipe Inspections

Before anything else is done, a reliable local plumber will always start by conducting a thorough inspection of your pipes. Sometimes a clog is not simply a clog; sometimes it is caused by other more serious factors — such as a full septic tank or some part of your plumbing system needing to be replaced.

Hydro-Jetting

One of our go-to methods of clearing a clogged drain is hydro-jetting. Hydro-jetting is a state-of-the-art technique utilizing pressurized water and specialized nozzles to clear debris and contaminants out of a clogged drain. It can also be used to descale cast iron and remove grease and other stubborn build-up in your pipes.

Hydrochloric Acid

Hydrochloric acid, otherwise known as muriatic acid, is commonly used by plumbers around the world to clear a clogged rain. It is a strong acid that can cause serious injury if it is not used with care. Trust the licensed and insured plumbers at Dooley Service Pro to unclog your drain in a safe, reliable way.
