Store-bought drain chemicals dissolve soap and light grease. They do nothing for root intrusion 40 feet in, grease buildup past the p-trap, or a collapsed pipe segment masquerading as a clog. Masters Plumbing Service's drain techs in Hunter arrive with hydro-jetting equipment rated to 4,000 PSI and a CCTV push-rod camera to locate, clear, and document the obstruction โ not temporarily push it deeper.

Retail drain products treat symptoms. Our approach identifies what type of blockage you're dealing with โ because the method that clears a grease plug efficiently is different from the one that handles root intrusion.
Before recommending any clearing method, we run a push-rod camera into the line to visually confirm blockage type, location, and pipe condition. Grease 30 feet in looks different from a root ball at a joint โ and each needs a different response.
Hydro-jetting is the only method that restores full pipe diameter. A cable clears the blockage; a jetter removes the material that caused the blockage from the pipe wall entirely.
We clear kitchen drains, bathroom sink and shower drains, floor drains, laundry drains, and 4โ6 inch main sewer lines. Our nozzle set and cable sizes scale from a 1.5-inch drain arm to a 6-inch commercial main.
Every drain call includes a written service report noting blockage type, location, method used, and any structural observations from the camera run. You know the state of your drain system โ not just that the water is flowing again.
From a slow bathroom sink to a main line stoppage affecting every fixture in the house, our Hunter drain techs have the equipment and training to clear it.
Grease blockages typically form 10โ40 feet from the drain opening, past the p-trap, where the pipe cools and FOG re-solidifies. Our jetting equipment reaches and clears these deposits where a plunger or retail product simply cannot.

Chronic slow bathroom drains often point to a partially closed p-trap, a buildup on the overflow plate mechanism, or a drain arm pitched incorrectly. We clear the immediate clog and identify if a mechanical fix is needed to prevent fast recurrence.
When multiple fixtures drain slowly or back up simultaneously, the blockage is in the main sewer line โ the 4โ6 inch pipe carrying all household waste to the municipal main or septic system. We access through the cleanout, run a CCTV camera to identify blockage type, then clear with a sectional cable machine or hydro-jetter depending on findings.
Basement floor drains and laundry room drains often go years without service and develop sediment, lint, and mineral scale blockages. We clear with an electric snake and flush thoroughly. Floor drain traps can also dry out and allow sewer gas into the structure โ we re-water the trap and can install a trap primer if the drain is prone to drying in Hunter's climate.
A documented preventive cleaning program creates a camera record of pipe condition over time โ useful for catching structural deterioration before it causes an emergency and for insurance or real estate disclosure purposes.
Pre-purchase sewer scope reports in Hunter are accepted by real estate attorneys, buyers' agents, and home inspectors as documented evidence of drain system condition.
We don't show up and start snaking blind. Our camera-first protocol confirms what we're clearing before selecting the method โ saving you money and preventing repeat calls.
Your description lets us arrive with the right tools. One slow drain vs. multiple backed-up fixtures is a different setup.
Camera footage confirms distance to the blockage and pipe diameter โ both critical for selecting the right clearing method and nozzle size.
Based on camera findings, you receive a flat-rate quote and an explanation of which method we're using โ cable, jet, or root cutter โ and why. No work begins without your approval.
After clearing, we run the camera again to confirm the pipe is open to full diameter. You get a written service summary and our drain clearing warranty before we leave.

My kitchen drain had been running slow for months and stopped entirely the night before Thanksgiving. Masters Plumbing Service had a tech out same morning, ran the camera, and found a 15-foot grease accumulation in the drain arm past the wall. The jetter cleared it in 20 minutes. The before-and-after footage was remarkable โ I could see the pipe walls go from coated to clean. No recurrence four months later.
Main line backed up on a Sunday. Masters Plumbing Service came within 2 hours, camera found a 3-inch grease plug combined with roots at a joint, cleared both with cable and jetter, and sent me the scope video. Exactly the transparency I wanted.
We own a rental property and schedule annual hydro-jet maintenance with Masters Plumbing Service. The jetting intervals have brought drain-related tenant calls down to nearly zero. The camera documentation each year also gives us a clear picture of pipe condition over time โ we caught a developing joint offset early and addressed it before it became an emergency.
