Salt Lake City Drain Cleaning
Of all the services we offer, Roto-Rooter is best known for drain cleaning. In Salt Lake City, drain emergencies are common, ranging from clogged residential drains to blocked sewer lines.
Why is Drain Cleaning Necessary?
Drain cleaning in Salt Lake City is essential for properly functioning plumbing systems. Drains become reservoirs for debris, including hair, grease, soap scum, food remnants, mineral deposits, and more. This accumulation gradually leads to blockages, impeding water flow and drainage efficiency. When this occurs, users may notice slow-draining sinks, weak toilet flushes, foul odors, water backups in showers and tubs, and potential water damage to property from backups and overflows.
Here are some key reasons why professional drain cleaning in Salt Lake City is necessary:
Services Offered
Kitchen Drain Cleaning
Kitchen drains see significant amounts of wear and tear. The gradual buildup of grease, food scraps, soaps, fats, and detergents within the drain pipe often leads to diminished flow and complete blockage (learn why you should never pour grease and oil down a sink). Roto-Rooter’s state-of-the-art sink machines skillfully cut through clogs, remove debris, and fully restore your kitchen sink drain to its original capacity and functionality. We don’t just open your drain; we clean the entire pipe, ensuring long-lasting openness.
Bathroom Sink Drain Cleaning
Bathroom sink drains are exposed to a host of drain-clogging substances. Accumulated soap scum, hair, beard trimmings, toothpaste residue, and beauty products can stick to the inner walls of the drainpipe, gradually forming a clog. Roto-Rooter swiftly restores proper flow to your bathroom drains and thoroughly cleans the pipe from end to end. Bathroom sink drains extend into the wall, far beyond the parts you can see below a bathroom sink. They connect to a branch drain that flows into your main sewer.
Bathtub Drain Cleaning
A clogged bathtub or shower drain can leave dirty water in fixtures for long periods. These clogs need prompt attention. Roto-Rooter staffs its Salt Lake City area offices 24/7 to ensure a rapid response when you need clogged drain cleaning in Salt Lake City.
Floor Drain Cleaning
Floor drains in laundry rooms, driveways, and garages are engineered to drain water swiftly. Because they are recessed into the floor, these drains accumulate significant dirt and debris over time. Should these drains clog, water can back up and overflow into the surrounding space, causing damage. Roto-Rooter will clear and clean your clogged floor drain. In cases of drain overflow, we also offer water extraction and drying services.
Outdoor Drain Cleaning
Outdoor drains include underground pipes connected to gutters, trench drains, channel drains, and sewer pipes. Cleaning underground corrugated pipes requires specialized techniques and dedicated water jetting or hand tools. Roto-Rooter utilizes proprietary machines, renowned for their power and effectiveness, and exclusively available through genuine Roto-Rooter branches.
Commercial Drain Cleaning in Salt Lake City
A commercial drain can become clogged with tough-to-remove items, including mop strings, plastic straws, utensils, and other foreign objects. These clogs often result from foreign objects and food grease buildup in busy restaurants or institutional kitchens.
If mechanical cleaning proves ineffective, Roto-Rooter provides high-pressure water jetting services to dislodge foreign objects and dissolve and flush grease or sludge out of the drain. Roto-Rooter has almost a century of experience cleaning commercial drains, and we offer scheduled drain maintenance programs to keep commercial drains from clogging in the first place.
In addition to floor and sink drains, Roto-Rooter provides commercial roof drain cleaning to Salt Lake City businesses, using mechanical or high-pressure water jets to clean roof drain pipes and water collection drains from one end to the other.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do you know if your drains need cleaning?
A slow drain needs cleaning to restore proper flow. If multiple drains in your home or business drain slowly, the problem may lie in your main sewer line.
Roto-Rooter has the tools to thoroughly clean and unclog residential and commercial drains. We use the best drain cleaning equipment in the industry, manufactured and assembled in our factory in West Des Moines, Iowa.
How often should drains be cleaned?
How often you clean your drain depends on usage and what goes down the drain. Hair and grease, for instance, can cause serious clogs. As a general guideline, older residential drains typically benefit from annual cleaning. In contrast, drains subjected to heavy use, such as those in restaurants or institutional kitchens, may require cleaning every three months. Commercial drains require more frequent cleaning, sometimes as often as every month. Roto-Rooter offers scheduled drain maintenance programs that significantly reduce the likelihood of a commercial clog that could impact your business.
Can I clean my drains or hire a professional?
Homeowners can often clear simple clogs. However, hiring a professional drain cleaning service company for more stubborn clogs in branch drain lines or main sewers is best to ensure a thorough and safe cleaning. Professional-grade sewer cleaning machines can be dangerous in the hands of inexperienced operators.
