Keeping sewer lines clean is one of those things you probably don’t think about until you have to. However, the moment your drains slow down, or you notice that unpleasant sewage smell creeping up, it becomes a top priority. Discount Drain Cleaning LV is your trusted partner for sewer pipe cleaning in Las Vegas, NV. Let’s explore the different methods often used for this maintenance task.
1. Drain Snaking: A Simple, Hands-On Fix
When it comes to removing blockages in clogged sewer lines, a drain snake (or plumbing auger) is often the first tool in a plumber’s arsenal. Drain snaking involves feeding a long, flexible metal coil into the pipes to break up clogs manually, allowing them to be flushed or pulled back up the pipe.
While effective for smaller, localized blockages, there are instances when drain snaking may not fully clean the pipes. Tree roots, for example, require tree root removal using a more specialized technique.
2. Hydro Jetting: High-Pressure, Deep Cleaning
If you want a more thorough clean, hydro jetting is an excellent option. A sewer pipe cleaning company can utilize high-pressure water (up to 4,000 PSI) to blast away any obstruction found in the pipe. Think of it as power-washing, but for your plumbing system. The force of the water can clear away stubborn clogs, from grease to mineral deposits and even tree roots.
Hydro jetting is effective for older sewer lines that may have years of buildup (as long as the pipes are still structurally sound and can withstand the high-pressure water), but it’s also ideal for newer plumbing systems to prevent future blockages. It’s a more intensive process, but one that can give your pipes a fresh start.
3. Rooter Service: Handling Tree Roots in Pipes
One of the most common causes of serious sewer blockages is tree roots. Over time, roots naturally grow toward water sources, and your underground sewer lines can be the perfect target. If roots have infiltrated your pipes, a professional sewer pipe cleaner can use rooter service to remove them.
Rooter service involves inserting a rotating blade into the pipe to cut away and remove the roots, allowing water to flow freely once again. In some cases, a rooter may need to be followed by hydro jetting for a more comprehensive clean.
If you’re unsure where to start, call Discount Drain Cleaning LV. Our experienced team can keep your plumbing system in peak condition.

I had the cartridge in my shower go bad and couldn't shut off my water. I called Walter at 6:00 am. He told me to shut off the water main and waited for him to get to my house and he fixed it in a matter of minutes, about 10-15 to be exact. I highly recommend them for any plumbing issues one might have.

We received a call from one of our tenants at a commercial retail center that all their toilets and sinks were backing up. We manage the property from out of town and rarely have plumbing issues, but now needed a plumber in a hurry. The tenant runs a childcare center and small children need access to bathrooms! After calling several companies who were too busy, one of them recommended Walter at Discount Drain. Lucky for us! Walter answered his phone immediately. He was friendly and committed to helping us out. He arrived at the property at the promised time and resolved our issue, keeping our tenants happy. His invoice arrived overnight with great detail and the price was reasonable. We won't hesitate to call upon Walter again.

Outstanding service. Was on time, price quoted was price charged, drains open and working in 30 minutes !! No mess to clean up, and was explained everything. Forget the ripoff plumbers in this city, that sell with the fear factor, and work you don't need. This is the only company to call.
