Blocked drain won’t clear? Shower draining slowly? Kitchen sink bubbling like a science experiment? Those stubborn clogs won’t disappear on their own—and no, plunging isn’t always enough. When water isn’t flowing the way it should, a professional drain snaking service can get things back on track quickly and cleanly.
Drain snaking isn’t just poking around with a wire. It’s a skilled process that uses a flexible cable (called an auger) to dislodge or break up whatever’s clogging your pipes. Whether it’s hair, grease, soap scum, or a mix of who-knows-what from years of buildup, snaking cuts through it so your water can flow freely again.
It’s the go-to method for clogs that are too deep for plunging but not severe enough to need hydro jetting or pipe replacement. Quick, affordable, and effective—when done right.
Not every drain issue needs snaking, but some symptoms are big red flags. Call us if you’re noticing:
These are signs of a partial blockage that’s building up. Ignoring them only gives the problem more time to grow—and potentially damage your pipes.
Scarborough homes vary from 60-year-old brick bungalows to new construction townhomes—and the drain systems reflect that. Knowing how local plumbing is built helps us find problems faster and fix them without trial and error.
Tree-lined streets? We’re ready for roots. Basement laundry drains backing up? We’ve seen it before. Whether you’re in Cliffside, Dorset Park, or Guildwood, our team knows what to expect and how to fix it fast.
Every service call is a chance to help a neighbour and build trust. That’s why homeowners call us again and again.
Once we arrive, we’ll inspect the issue, determine the depth and severity of the clog, and get to work. We’ll use a properly sized auger to reach deep into the pipe and remove the blockage. If needed, we can also use a camera to inspect your line to confirm everything’s clear.
You’ll get a clear explanation of what was causing the issue, how we fixed it, and any recommendations to prevent it from happening again.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Frequently Asked Questions
Snaking is ideal for removing solid clogs like hair or debris close to the surface. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to clean entire pipes and is often used for more serious build-up or grease blockages.
Not when it’s done professionally. We use the right tools and techniques for your pipe type and condition to safely remove the clog without causing damage.
Most jobs are completed in under an hour. More complex clogs may take a bit longer, but we always come prepared to finish the job the same day.
When your drains aren’t working right, everything else feels off. We at Saving Plumbing are here to fix that—quickly, cleanly, and with a level of care you won’t find everywhere.
Let’s get things flowing again. You’ll be glad you called.
