Our Clogged Floor Drain Services in Scarborough

Floor Drain Replacement and Installation

If your floor drain is corroded, broken, or improperly sealed, replacement may be the best solution. Our licensed plumbers in Scarborough handle floor drain installation, ensuring a tight seal between the drain and floor to prevent leaks, odors, and sewage backup. We use durable materials that integrate seamlessly with your existing drainage system.

Clogged Floor Drain Repair

A clogged floor drain in your Scarborough basement can cause standing water, foul odors, and even sewage backup. Our professional plumbers use drain snakes, electric augers, and hydro jetting to clear out soap scum, dirt, and debris from the pipe walls. We inspect the drain cover and cleanout plug to ensure a tight seal and steady water flow, preventing future blockages and costly repairs.

Basement Floor Drain Cleaning

Basement drains often collect lint, hair, and residue from laundry rooms or nearby fixtures. Over time, these materials can create drain blockages that cause water backup or slow drainage. Our drain cleaning company provides professional drain cleaning to clear clogs, sanitize the basement floor drain, and remove unpleasant odors, ensuring your basement stays dry and safe year-round.

Hydro Jetting for Severe Floor Drain Blockages

When minor clogs turn stubborn, hydro jetting uses high-pressure hot water to break through grease, soap buildup, and tree roots inside your drain system. This method completely cleans the inside of the drain pipe, main sewer line, and sanitary sewer, helping your drains clear and improving long-term performance without harsh chemicals.

Drain Camera Inspection

If you’re dealing with persistent clogs or sewage backing into your basement, our camera inspection helps identify the root cause. We locate cracks, obstructions, or root intrusions within the drainage system before recommending effective drain repair solutions. This technology prevents guesswork, reduces damage, and helps you avoid costly repairs.

Preventative Floor Drain Maintenance

Keeping your floor drains clear is essential to prevent basement flooding and foul smells. Our maintenance services include regular professional drain cleaning, inspection of the sump pump, and cleaning of the drain cover to catch hair and debris. We also advise homeowners to avoid pouring grease, paper towels, or harsh chemicals that can damage pipes or create stubborn clogs.

Emergency Floor Drain Services

When plumbing problems strike during heavy rainfall or when your basement drain backs up, our emergency plumbers in Scarborough respond fast. We use the right tools, from plumber’s snakes to hydro jetting machines, to clear drain and kitchen sink clogs, stop water backup, and protect your home’s drain system from further damage.

Floor Drain Odor Removal

Over time, debris, bacteria, and stagnant water in floor drains can cause foul odors and unpleasant smells. Our plumbers clean and disinfect the drain system, restore proper water flow, and eliminate sewer gases before they spread through your home. This service helps keep your basement drain and plumbing system fresh and healthy.

What Scarborough Homeowners Are Saying

Patti S
Patti S⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We have a problematic drain line - no slope and multiple bends - so clogs are an ongoing issue. At this point we just wanted the lines snaked/cleaned. Jonathan also explained what could be done to permanently fix the problem. It looked like things were running smoothly but after they left I filled the sink and was dismayed to see the water not draining from the basement sink. A quick call to Jonathan and Vonn was sent back to have a look. The camera showed another blockage which took some time to clear. It was a difficult job and Vonn made sure I was completely satisfied that no further blockage existed before leaving. It was a messy job and he left the area spotless and disinfected. My only complaint is that I did not receive an itemized quote, just a verbal cost. At the very least I feel the invoice should show the work done.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my floor drain clogged?

Common causes include soap residue, grease buildup, and debris like hair or dirt. Over time, these materials adhere to the pipe walls, restricting water flow and leading to standing water or foul odors.

While boiling water or baking soda might help with a minor clog, persistent issues need a licensed plumber. DIY attempts can worsen drain problems or damage pipes.

Avoid grease, oil, paper towels, or harsh chemicals. These can harden or corrode your pipes, leading to stubborn clogs and future drain repair needs.

Regular drain cleaning and keeping the drain cover clean can help prevent clogs. Installing a sump pump and performing routine maintenance services can also prevent water backup during heavy rain.

Yes, we offer emergency floor drain services in Scarborough to handle sewage backups, blocked drains, and basement flooding quickly and efficiently.
