When slow drains or sudden sewer backups disrupt your property, you need a team that acts fast. At SewerTV Hydro Jetting and Plumbing, we provide professional drain cleaning San Antonio residents trust to protect their homes. Therefore, we guarantee we will arrive in under an hour, or your service fee is completely free.
Professional drain cleaning is a specialized plumbing service that clears thick blockages, hard minerals, and tree roots from pipes. Skilled technicians use advanced tools like motorized drain snakes, sewer cameras, and high-pressure hydro-jetters to scour pipe walls clean. Consequently, this process restores maximum water flow and prevents recurring sewer backups.
Many property owners ignore slow drains until a complete backup occurs. However, investing in professional clearing offers several critical advantages for your plumbing system:
Organic waste and stagnant grease trapped in your kitchen sink drain create terrible smells. Professional cleaning removes this rotting source entirely.
Severe blockages put immense physical pressure on plumbing systems. Cleaning them relieves this stress and helps prevent sudden pipe cracks.
A blocked sewer line easily overflows into your home. Our professional cleaning intercepts deep clogs before they cause property damage.
San Antonio water contains high levels of calcium from the Edwards Aquifer. Therefore, we clear this crusty lime buildup to widen your home's pipes.
Plumbing issues can disrupt your daily life in a hurry. Fortunately, our technicians are experts at identifying and fixing common local drainage problems:

Not every clog needs the same solution. Here’s how the three most common approaches compare:
| Option | Ideal For | Long-Term Effectiveness | Risk to Old Pipes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chemical Cleaners | Minor hair clogs | Very Low (clogs return quickly) | High (corrodes metal pipes) |
| Mechanical Snaking | Soft blockages, hair | Moderate (leaves grease residue) | Low (safe for sound pipes) |
| Professional Hydro-Jetting | Heavy grease, roots, scale | High (clears pipe completely) | Safe (when verified by camera) |
Store-bought chemicals rarely dissolve the entire blockage. Usually, they only burn a small pathway through the clog, allowing water to drain slowly. The remaining sticky residue quickly catches new hair, soap, and food scraps, causing another complete backup.
San Antonio's clay soils shift during dry seasons, which can crack old clay or cast-iron lines. Tiny tree roots detect the moist, warm air exiting those cracks and grow inside the sewer pipe, causing severe blockages.
Hydro-jetting is incredibly safe when performed by experienced specialists. However, we always conduct a video sewer camera inspection first. This allows us to confirm your pipes are structurally sound enough to handle the high water pressure.
For most homes, we recommend a professional preventive cleaning every 18 to 24 months. However, commercial businesses, especially busy restaurants with grease traps, often need monthly or quarterly drain cleanings to avoid backups.
First, stop running all water inside your home immediately. Next, locate your main sewer cleanout outside, and call SewerTV at (210) 500-9840. We will arrive in under an hour to protect your home.
