A kitchen sink that drains slower every week, a shower that backs up mid-rinse, a floor drain that gurgles when the washer runs — these rarely fix themselves, and snaking the surface clog usually just buys a few weeks. Our Pella drain team runs camera inspections to find the actual cause.
We run a camera line inspection before recommending a fix, so you're not paying to snake a line that actually needs hydro-jetting.
Every technician carries valid credentials and liability coverage — standard on every drain call.
Trucks stocked with jetting and camera equipment are staged around Pella so a backed-up drain doesn't sit for days.
The diagnosis determines the price, and that price is confirmed in writing before we start clearing anything.
These are the drain issues we see most often across Pella, each handled with the equipment built for that specific cause.
High-pressure water clears grease, sludge, and scale buildup from the inside of the pipe wall, not just punching a hole through the clog like a cable snake.
A waterproof camera is fed through the line to locate the exact blockage, a bellied section, or root intrusion before any tool touches the pipe.
Cable snaking is still the right call for a simple hair or debris clog close to the fixture.
Tree roots that have worked into a sewer or drain line get cut and cleared with a root-cutting head, then the line is reassessed for damage.
Commercial kitchens in Pella, IA get grease trap service scheduled around operating hours to avoid disrupting service.
A maintenance plan on a recurring-clog line usually costs less over a year than repeat emergency calls.
Tell dispatch which fixtures are affected and whether it's a slow drain or a full backup — that shapes which truck gets sent.
Our Pella trucks carry both cable and jetting equipment, so a second trip is rarely needed.
The line gets camera-inspected, the actual blockage identified, and a flat price quoted before any clearing begins.
We re-run the camera after clearing so you can see the difference, backed by a workmanship warranty on the service.

The camera inspection tells us — grease and scale buildup calls for jetting, while a simple isolated clog often just needs a cable.
We assess pipe material and condition via camera first; jetting pressure is adjusted for older or more fragile lines.
Camera inspection pricing is quoted upfront and often bundled into the diagnosis fee for a drain cleaning call.
Yes — roots seek out moisture and can enter through small cracks or joints in sewer and drain lines, especially older clay pipe.
It depends on kitchen volume, but many Pella restaurants schedule quarterly service to avoid emergency backups.
Recurring clogs after snaking are the classic sign jetting or a camera diagnosis is actually needed.
