Power snakes, the standard tool in the industry for drain clearing and sewer line cleaning, are used to remove solid obstructions in the pipe, such as roots, food build up, and hair. The power snake's rotating cable has different blade attachments to cut, loosen, and push material downstream to the sewer main, including tree roots common in Oakland neighborhoods. Hydrojetters are used for comprehensive sewer line cleaning and maintenance to pressure wash the inside of the pipe. The jet of water scours long-term build up of paper, solid waste, and food grease and flushes the debris to the sanitary main.


These professional sewer line cleaning and maintenance tools are most effective when they enter the sewer pipeline close to the problem area, so Pipe Spy first uses sewer video inspection tools to identify the best spot for access to the blocked line in your Oakland, East Bay Area, or Lamorinda property.

Signs of a Clogged Sewer Line

Common signs of a clogged sewer line Oakland homeowners and east bay residents often experience:

  1. Drains or toilets backing up with water

  2. Slow drains throughout the house

  3. Gurgling sounds coming from sinks, tubs, or toilets
