Drain Cleaning in Scottsdale, Cleared Same Day on Most Jobs

Slow drain, blocked main line, or a clog that keeps coming back. We clear it same day on most jobs. If we can't clear it, it's free.

SRP shuts down stretches of the Arizona Canal for maintenance every fall and winter, working through the system on a rotation of about ten years. A recent turn dried roughly eight miles of it in Scottsdale. The trees that do well in Scottsdale yards send roots toward moisture, and a cracked joint in a drain line is moisture.

What Gets Into a Scottsdale Drain Line

McCormick Ranch and Gainey Ranch are the two names that set the pattern for north Scottsdale, master-planned around golf courses and built out through the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. Mature landscaping came with them. Palo verde, mesquite, ficus, mulberry, elm, olive and eucalyptus all grow here, and University of Arizona extension lists every one of them as a species that sends roots looking for moisture, with roots measured better than 19 feet out from a trunk only six inches across against a recommended clearance of 20 feet from a sewer lateral. Under the valley side of the city, caliche hardpan limits how fast water soaks away and restricts where roots can spread. A cracked joint under one of those trees does not stay a small problem.

Whether the line runs under a flat lot in central Scottsdale or a foothills lot that drops away from the house, the deal is the same. If we cannot clear it, you do not pay for the drain cleaning.

Our guarantee: if we can't clear the drain, there's no charge for the attempt. And if clearing isn't the right answer, we say so. Sometimes the honest call is a camera inspection first, so you know what's wrong before you pay anybody to keep snaking it.

Not sure whether your line needs a cable snake or hydro jetting in Scottsdale? Our hydro jetting vs. snaking guide breaks down which tool fits which problem. Either way, it starts with our $59 diagnostic, the same fee at 2 PM or 2 AM.

Frequently Asked Questions

Scottsdale is close work for us. Figure 10 to 15 minutes from our Phoenix office to the near edge and 20 to 30 to the middle of the city, with traffic deciding which. The guarantee does not change with the address either: if we cannot clear the line, you do not pay for the drain cleaning.

Because the trees that do well here all chase water. Elm, mulberry, eucalyptus, ficus, olive, mesquite and palo verde are on University of Arizona extension's list of aggressive rooters, and roots have been measured running more than 19 feet from a trunk six inches thick, against a recommended 20 feet of clearance from the line. Add caliche, which slows how fast water soaks away, and a cracked joint is the thing those roots reach first.
