Drain Cleaning in Baltimore, MD

Kitchen Drain Cleaning

Kitchen drains are prone to clogs due to the accumulation of grease, food scraps, soaps, fats, and detergents. Over time, this buildup restricts water flow and leads to a complete clog (learn why you should never pour grease and oil down a sink). Roto-Rooter’s advanced sink machines skillfully cut through clogs, eliminate debris, and fully restore your kitchen sink drain to its original capacity and functionality. We don’t just open your drain; we thoroughly clean the entire pipe to ensure it remains clear and open longer.

Bathroom sink drains are prone to clogs due to the accumulation of soap scum, hair, beard trimmings, toothpaste, and beauty products. These substances stick to the inside walls of the drainpipe and gradually form clogs, restricting water flow and leading to unpleasant odors. Roto-Rooter quickly restores proper flow to your bathroom drains and thoroughly cleans the pipe from end to end. Bathroom sink drains extend into the wall, well beyond what's visible beneath the bathroom sink, and connect to a branch drain that feeds into your central sewer line.

Bathtub and shower drains accumulate a sticky mixture of soap scum, hair, and hygiene products, reducing water flow. Roto-Rooter offers expert bathroom drain cleaning services to clear clogs and restore proper water flow.

Floor drains in laundry rooms, driveways, basements, and garages are designed to drain away water quickly. Because these drains are built into the floor, they accumulate substantial dirt and debris over time. When floor drains clog, water can back up and overflow into the surrounding space, causing the damage they should prevent. Roto-Rooter is here to clear and clean your clogged floor drain. In cases of drain overflow, we offer water extraction and drying services.

Outdoor drains include underground pipes connected to gutters, trench drains, channel drains, and sewer pipes. Underground corrugated pipes require particular cleaning techniques due to their ribbed construction, including specialized water jetting or hand tools.

Commercial drain clogs often require different cleaning techniques than residential drains and tend to clog more frequently. A commercial drain can clog with tough-to-remove items, including mop strings, plastic straws, utensils, and other foreign objects. Commercial drain clogs in busy restaurants or institutional kitchens are often caused by foreign objects and by a buildup of food grease. Roto-Rooter offers commercial drain cleaning services in Baltimore using mechanical cleaning or high-pressure water jetting to dislodge foreign objects and dissolve grease and sludge. We offer scheduled drain maintenance programs to keep commercial drains from clogging in the first place.

In addition to floor and sink drains, Roto-Rooter provides commercial roof drain cleaning to Baltimore businesses, using mechanical or high-pressure water jets to clean roof drain pipes and water collection drains. Commercial roof drains include gutters, scuppers, downspouts, and inner drains. A clogged commercial roof drain can damage your building and its contents, especially if your property has a flat roof. Roto-Rooter will work with you to create a drain cleaning maintenance schedule for your roof.

Residential gutters include gutters, scuppers, and inner drains connecting underground drainage systems. Leaves, twigs, insect nests, and plant life can clog a residential roof drain, causing water to pool on or near your roof, where it can rot wood trim or leak into attics. Roto-Rooter has the tools and safety equipment to clear the underground pipes that connect your roof drains to storm drains.
