Frequently Asked Questions:

Snaking a drain is a plumbing process that helps unclog drains. When a plunger doesn't get the job done, often the next step is to snake a drain.

Drain snaking is a proven solution that has been in use for many years. The process works by inserting a corkscrew-fitted steel cable through the drains to break the clogs and blockages, restoring water flow. It also helps eliminate foul smells caused by debris buildup and stagnant water stuck in your pipes.

The drain snake is a plumber's secret weapon that removes stubborn clogs that are proving resistant to plunging . Technically, it's called a drain auger but is nicknamed the snake due to its coiled shape.

You should not try to snake a drain on your own, it should always be left to the experts.Here are the 3 key reasons: pipe damage, toxic water, and injury. Pipe damage occurs when a wrong tool is used or a right tool but not correctly. You might be fortunate to get your hands on the proper drain auger but applying too much or too little force often results in pipe damage or the drain snake getting stuck. Escalating a simple clog to a multiple thousand dollar drain repair. Toxic, sewage water is the second reason you should not try and snake on your own. Plumbers wear full protective gear when snaking a drain otherwise there's a major risk of bacteria, infections, and other unpleasantries. The last reason for not snaking yourself is a risk of injury.

Most bathroom drain clogs result when dirt, skin flakes, and especially hair binds to soap scum on the walls of drain pipes. Over time, this gunk accumulates and reduces water flow.

Another reason could be a collapsed pipe, such as an old clay pipe. Or tree root intrusion into the drain pipe going out from your home into the city sewer.

In an extreme case where the snake is unable to clear the blockage we would need to access the pipe to remove it. This is done by excavating the ground if the blockage is outside the house or breaking the concrete and repaching if in the basement.

The cost of the snaking service depends on the type of blockage and the time it takes to remove it.

Opting for professional drain snaking services guarantees top-quality plumbing care.

The cost depends on the severity of the clog, the length of the affected pipe, and the time required to clear the blockage.

Regular drain maintenance prevents major blockages and plumbing failures, reducing costly repairs and downtime.

Commercial properties benefit by ensuring their drainage systems remain clear of debris and blockages.

Camera inspections reveal clogs and other issues without digging, helping plumbers decide the best way to remove blockages.

Hydro jetting removes clogs using high-pressure water, which is eco-friendly and effective against various blockages.

Tree roots can enter pipe cracks, causing severe blockages or bursts, especially in older sewer systems.

Use drain guards, flush drains with hot water, and schedule annual inspections with licensed plumbers.

A professional inspection at least once a year is ideal, especially for older homes.

Recent Reviews

This is my experience, as anyone may have different ones; we called them, and they came right on time. I'm simply comparing them with the last one we had contacted before and asked to fix our clogged main drain by snaking into the pipes, and they just looked for something more to apply and double-charge us. These guys did the job (including the camera) with proper charge, and nice/professional manner. I highly recommend them.

I called Canadian Rooter to unclog my bathtub drain. Vlad the assigned plumber called when he was on his way and arrived well within the quoted time frame. Fixed my problem in no time, cleaned up and explained how to avoid these problems in the future. I have another plumbing issue which needs to be dealt with in the near future. I had Vlad look at it and give me an estimate because I will be contacting them to do this repair as well. Great service. I strongly recommend this company.

I can't tell you how extremely satisfied I was with the service I had from - I believe his name was 'Phil'. He worked hard to remove a very difficult clog deep in the drainage pipe from my kitchen sink. I need my kitchen desperately with 5 kids and a husband to feed! He even called me back to review his work and provide process improvements for this to not happen again. The price was right as well! I work at Cooperators, Mississauga with an employee count of over 600 and will spread the word on your great service! Thank you! Joanne Capano

Punctual, and very competitive rates. Had him clear out a clogged drain, tried snaking but it did not work. Would not hesitate to call Canadian Rooter again. Thank you Sam.

Naz was efficient, friendly and professional. I Highly recommend his service. He snaked our shower drain with no problems at all. He was on time and worked fast. He is very likeable.

Mike is great. I was having an issue with our kitchen sink. I was using another plumber at the time who told me I needed thousands of dollars worth of work done in order to fix our backup issue. I called Canadian Rooter for a second opinion and Mike came and investigated very thoroughly; turns out the original plumber never installed a piece in our sink he was supposed to. Mike not only removed all the buildup from our sink but also gave me step by step advice for what to do next, which was very helpful. I highly recommend Mike and Canadian Rooter
