Main Sewer Line Cleaning
Does your floor drain or basement shower back up when you run your washer? Dishwasher? Kitchen Faucet? A sewer backup is your worst nightmare. The buildup of sludge and grease or roots growing into your sewer pipes can slow all your drains, and once the sewer line is entirely blocked, you won't be able to flush or run water in your home. - let us diagnose the cause and unclog & clear it completely.
Showers and Tubs Not Draining
You've probably seen the telltale signs of soon-to-be clogs in your tub or shower floor but thought little about it. The water drains a little slower, or seems to backup. It could be from a buildup of soap or hair or something has slipped down the drain. Sometimes its a sign of a backup from a clogged sewer. Call us to clear the clog completely.
Kitchen Drains Cleared
Garbage Disposal Stuck? Dropped a serving knife? Toy? Let us help you clear that and get it functioning properly again. Kitchen Sink won’t drain? Finished Plumbing & HVAC will come use a commercial grade machine to unblock it and get it flowing again.
Drain Snaking
We often use a long, flexible cable with a corkscrew-like auger to break up clogs or grab onto obstructions, allowing us to pull it out when retracting the snake from a drain pipe or sewer line. Whether you call it snaking, cabling, or augering, it’s a reliable method for handling tough clogs that can’t be cleared with a plunger. We use different sizes for unclogging drain pipes and sewer lines.
Video Inspection of Sewer Lines
Video inspection of sewer lines is a game changer in plumbing. It involves using a small, waterproof camera on a flexible rod to navigate through the sewer pipe all the way to the municipal sewer system or septic tank. This allows our plumber to visually inspect the condition of the pipes and identify blockages, corrosion, breaks, or other issues without digging up the yard or parking areas.
Excavation for Pipe Replacement
When trenchless repair is not possible, excavation is sometimes necessary to replace deteriorated or damaged water or sewer pipes with new ones. We carefully dig trenches along the affected line to expose the damaged section for repair or replacement.
After repairs, our we backfill the access point or trench with soil. We ensure proper compaction to prevent settling or future issues. Our goal is to leave the area in its original condition or better.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are the drains in my North St. Paul home backing up?
Many homes in older neighborhoods like North St. Paul and Maplewood still have original clay or cast-iron sewer lines. Over time, these can crack or shift, leading to frequent backups. If you are experiencing slow drains throughout the house, it likely points to a blockage in your main sewer line rather than a single fixture.
Do you offer emergency 24/7 drain cleaning in White Bear Lake?
Yes. We know that a sewer backup doesn't wait for business hours. We provide 24/7 emergency drain cleaning services throughout White Bear Lake and the surrounding Northeast Metro. If you have a total stoppage or a floor drain overflowing, call us immediately.
Why does my basement floor drain smell like sewage?
This is a common issue in Minnesota homes during the change of seasons. Often, the water in your floor drain’s "P-trap" has evaporated, allowing sewer gases to enter your home. However, if the smell is accompanied by gurgling sounds, it could be a venting issue or a partial clog in your main line that requires a professional inspection.
Are tree roots a common problem for sewers in the Northeast Twin Cities?
Absolutely. The beautiful, mature trees in communities like Shoreview and Oakdale have extensive root systems that seek out moisture in sewer line joints. We use professional-grade cabling and video camera inspections to identify root intrusions and clear them out without damaging your yard.
Is it safe to use chemical drain cleaners on my pipes?
We generally advise against store-bought chemical cleaners. These products are often highly corrosive and can damage older metal pipes common in the Twin Cities area. They also rarely clear a major clog completely. A professional mechanical cleaning is safer for your plumbing and provides a much longer-lasting solution.
How do I know if I need a sewer camera inspection?
If you have recurring clogs, are buying a new home in an older neighborhood, or suspect a pipe has collapsed due to shifting soil, a video camera inspection is the best way to see exactly what is happening underground. It takes the guesswork out of the repair and can save you thousands in unnecessary digging.
