City FAQ

How often should I clean drains in a city unit?

Shared stacks may need more frequent maintenance during renovation seasons.

Can you work around tight schedules?

Yes. Early morning, late night, and between-meeting windows are available. We plan the job to match elevator access and quiet hours.

Do you handle odor complaints?

Odors come from dry traps, biofilm, vent issues, or partial clogs. We hydrate traps, clean biofilm with safe agents, and verify vent health with cameras.

Is hydro-jetting safe for my pipes?

We match pressure and nozzle type to pipe age and material, protecting the line while restoring full diameter.

Do you provide documentation for boards?

Absolutely. You receive video links, photos, and clear notes you can forward to boards, supers, and insurance.

Can you help renters and hosts?

Yes. We coordinate with landlords, offer turnkey odor fixes, and schedule service between guest stays.

Deep-dive city insights

Dealing with older buildings

Historic Pontiac, MI buildings often combine original cast iron with newer PVC tie-ins. We soften jetting pressure, stage cleaning in passes, and document every fragility.

Managing high occupancy

High occupancy demands high-frequency care.

Protecting luxury finishes

Luxury service means invisible footprints and flawless results.

Extended guidance for city peace of mind

Vent health

Clogged vents mimic drain clogs. We camera-check vents, clear nests, and confirm airflow so fixtures drain silently.

Shared responsibility

In multi-unit buildings, one bad habit can affect everyone. We provide simple posters and digital tips boards can share with residents.

Data-backed maintenance

We log every visit, capture footage, and track trends in your building. Patterns reveal when to schedule jetting, where to add cleanouts, and which fixtures need attention.

Travel-proof drains

Before long trips, run water in rarely used fixtures and add a dash of mineral oil to traps to slow evaporation.

Long-form city assurance

From first call to flowing drains

When you dial TotalDrainCleaning, a live city coordinator answers, captures your symptoms, and sets an arrival window that fits your calendar.
