Drain and Sewer in Leawood KS

Master Plumber Expertise for Your Drain and Sewer Needs

When your plumbing fails, the difference between a temporary patch and a long-term solution often comes down to the skill level of the technician. As a Master Plumber and Gas Fitter, I bring a level of expertise to drain and sewer services that goes beyond simple unclogging. We don’t just treat the symptom; we identify the root cause.

In Leawood, where many homes have mature landscaping and established plumbing systems, drain and sewer issues are often caused by tree root intrusion, shifting soil, or aging pipes. Our approach is methodical and precise. We utilize advanced technology to inspect, diagnose, and resolve issues with minimal disruption to your property whenever possible.

What are the signs that a sewer line is broken or clogged?

Most catastrophic plumbing failures give you warnings before they happen. Recognizing these subtle signs can save you from the disaster of raw sewage flooding your basement or causing extensive water damage. If you notice any of the following, it is time to call for a professional inspection:

• Multiple Fixture Clogs: A single clogged toilet is a nuisance; however, if your toilet, shower, and kitchen sink are clogging simultaneously, you likely have a blockage deep in your main sewer line.
• Unusual Noises: If you flush the toilet and hear water gurgling in the bathtub, or run the washing machine and hear bubbling in the toilet, trapped air is struggling to escape a blocked line.
• Foul Odors: The smell of rotten eggs or raw sewage inside your home or in your yard is a clear indicator of a cracked or breached sewer line where sewer gas is escaping.
• Lush Patches of Grass: While a green lawn is desirable, an unexpectedly lush, green patch of grass in your yard—especially when the rest is dry—often signals a leaking sewer line fertilizing the soil from below.

Our Comprehensive Drain and Sewer Solutions

We offer a full suite of services designed to address every aspect of your drain and sewer health. From routine maintenance to complex excavations, we have the tools and training to handle it all.

Professional Drain Cleaning and Snaking

For many minor to moderate clogs, professional cabling (snaking) is the most efficient solution. Unlike hardware store augers which can damage porcelain or only punch a small hole in the clog, our industrial-grade equipment is designed to thoroughly clear the obstruction. We use various cutter heads to cut through roots and scrape away years of soap scum and grease buildup, restoring the full diameter of the pipe.

Hydro Jetting Services

When a cable isn't enough, we turn to hydro jetting. This method uses high-pressure water streams to scour the interior of your pipes. It is highly effective for:

• Grease accumulation in kitchen lines.
• Heavy scale buildup in older cast iron pipes.
• Soft blockages that snakes might pass right through.

Hydro jetting doesn't just unclog the drain; it cleans it, leaving the pipe walls smooth and less prone to future buildup.
