New builds and renovations send fine dust into drains. We pre-flush, filter, and jet lines after construction milestones, preventing cement-like buildup.

A predictable program beats late-night emergencies.

High-rise harmony

Stacked units share drain stacks. We use cameras to map exact branch tie-ins, then clean from cleanouts without disturbing neighbors.

Heavy Santa Cruz, CA rain can overwhelm city systems. We inspect sump discharge, backwater valves, and area drains before storms.

Run hot water after cooking, wipe pans, and use strainers on every sink. These tiny steps slow buildup and stretch the life of professional cleanings.

Restaurants and cafs should log daily strainer checks, weekly enzyme applications, and monthly light jetting.

Choose enzyme-based maintenance over harsh chemicals. It is safer for pipes, pets, and people in tight city spaces.

If water backs up, pause water use, avoid chemical drain cleaners, and call us. We guide you through safe steps while a crew drives over.
