What's Clogging Up Your Day?

A slow drain is annoying. A completely blocked one? That's a whole different headache. From kitchen sinks to main sewer lines, John The Plumber provides drain cleaning services in Bells Corners to help get things moving again.

Kitchen Sink Going Nowhere?

Grease, food debris and buildup can turn a busy kitchen sink into a standing-water situation. We help clear clogged kitchen drains and restore proper drainage.

Bathroom Sink Acting Up?

Toothpaste residue, soap buildup and hair can collect inside bathroom drains. If the water is draining slowly or not at all, we can investigate and clear the obstruction.

Shower Turning Into a Pool?

Standing in ankle-deep water isn't exactly the relaxing shower you planned. Hair and soap buildup are common causes of blocked shower and bathtub drains.

Shower & Bathtub Drain Cleaning

Toilet Refusing to Flush?

Excess paper, foreign objects and deeper drain blockages can leave a toilet clogged or overflowing. Our plumbers can assess the problem and use suitable equipment to help clear it.

Basement Drain Backing Up?

Water collecting around a basement floor drain or laundry drain deserves attention. We'll help identify the drainage problem and determine the appropriate clearing method.

Multiple Drains Misbehaving?

When several fixtures back up or drain slowly at once, the problem may be farther down the plumbing system. Main sewer line cleaning and camera inspections can help address more complicated blockages.

Drain Cleaning in Action

See How Professional Drain Cleaning Works

Clearing a clogged drain isn't always as simple as removing what's visible at the opening. Watch how professional drain cleaning equipment can help locate, break apart and remove blockages throughout a plumbing system.

Different Blockages Call for Different Tools

The right drain cleaning method depends on the location, cause and severity of the blockage. Here are some of the tools used to investigate and clear clogged drains.

01

Drain Snakes

Mechanical drain snakes can reach into pipes to break through or retrieve certain types of blockages.

02

Drain Cameras

Camera inspections help plumbers see inside accessible drain lines and identify potential obstructions or pipe problems.

03

Chain Knockers

Specialized rotating chain tools can help remove certain deposits and buildup from suitable drain pipes when conditions allow.

04

Hydro Jetting

High-pressure water jetting can help clear grease, debris and buildup from appropriate drain and sewer lines.

The Clues Are in Your Plumbing

Is Your Drain Trying to Tell You Something?

Drains don't usually announce a blockage with flashing lights. Instead, they leave little clues: a strange noise, water that takes forever to disappear, or a smell you'd rather not investigate.

If you've noticed any of these warning signs in your Bells Corners home, it might be time to take a closer look.

Water Taking Its Sweet Time

A sink, shower or bathtub that drains more slowly than usual may have buildup or an obstruction restricting the flow of water.

That Smell Isn't Going Away

Persistent unpleasant odours from a drain can be associated with trapped debris, buildup or other drainage and plumbing problems.

Gurgling From the Pipes

Bubbling or gurgling sounds while water drains can indicate restricted flow or an issue with the plumbing system's venting.

The Same Clog Keeps Coming Back

If a drain repeatedly slows down after temporary clearing, buildup, a deeper obstruction or a pipe issue may need closer investigation.

More Than One Drain Is Backing Up

When several fixtures are affected, the blockage may be in a shared drain or main sewer line rather than a single sink or shower.

Spotting more than one warning sign? Don't wait for a small drainage problem to become a messy backup. Our Bells Corners plumbing team can help investigate the cause.

The Stuff We Find Inside Your Drains

Some clogs are minor annoyances. Others are downright impressive — and not in a good way! Here's a look at real drain cleaning work performed by our Ottawa plumbing team.

When the Kitchen Sink Says Nope

A plumber uses drain snaking equipment to work on a kitchen drain. A drain snake can reach beyond the sink opening to help break through certain obstructions inside the drain line.

Kitchen drain blockages can develop from grease, food residue and other buildup. The right clearing method depends on what's causing the problem.

The Unpleasant Discovery

Well, That Explains the Blockage!

This photo shows a nasty buildup pulled from a main drain using mechanical drain cleaning equipment. It's a good reminder that serious obstructions aren't always visible from the sink, toilet or floor drain.

When blockages are deeper in the drainage system, plumbers may need specialized tools to reach and remove the material causing trouble.

Drain Cleaning FAQs

Got questions about a stubborn clog? Here are a few things Bells Corners homeowners often want to know before booking drain cleaning.

How much does drain cleaning cost in Bells Corners?

The cost depends on where the blockage is, how difficult it is to access, and what equipment is needed. A simple fixture clog may require less work than a main sewer line blockage. Contact John The Plumber at 613-509-1320 to discuss your drainage problem and the next steps.

Can you clear a kitchen sink that won't drain?

Yes. Kitchen sink drain cleaning is one of the services our plumbers provide. Grease, food residue and other buildup can restrict drainage. Depending on the cause and location of the clog, mechanical drain cleaning equipment may be used to clear it.

Why does my drain keep clogging again?

Recurring clogs can be caused by buildup that wasn't fully removed, foreign objects, tree roots or problems with the pipe itself. If a drain keeps blocking, a camera inspection may help identify what's happening farther down the line.

What's the difference between drain snaking and hydro jetting?

Drain snaking uses a mechanical cable and cutting or clearing attachment to work through certain obstructions. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to remove suitable types of debris and buildup. The best method depends on the blockage and the condition of the pipe.

Do I need a drain camera inspection?

Not every clog requires a camera. However, an inspection may be helpful when a blockage keeps returning, several fixtures are affected, or there may be damage or an obstruction deeper in the drain or sewer line.

What should I do if sewage is backing up into my basement?

Stop using plumbing fixtures that may add more wastewater to the affected drain. Keep people and pets away from contaminated water and avoid contact with sewage. Contact a plumber promptly to investigate the backup. You can also learn about our Bells Corners emergency plumbing services .
