5 Common Drain Problems (and How We Solve Them)

Clogged or slow drains are more than an inconvenience—they can signal deeper issues in your plumbing system. At RooterBee, we provide fast and reliable drain cleaning services across Toronto and the GTA. Here are the top five drain issues we encounter (and fix) every day.

1. Slow or Gurgling Drains

Usually caused by grease buildup, soap scum, or partial blockages. We use augers and hydro jetting to restore full flow.

2. Tree Root Infiltration

Roots seek out moisture and can invade underground sewer lines. Our technicians cut roots mechanically and recommend relining for long-term prevention.

3. Recurring Kitchen Sink Clogs

Grease, food particles, and coffee grounds are the main culprits. We clear the line safely—without harsh chemicals that can damage pipes.

4. Sewer Line Backups

A serious issue that can flood basements. We locate and clear the obstruction, then recommend backwater valves to prevent future surges.

5. Hidden Pipe Damage

Cracks, offsets, and collapsed sections are identified with CCTV camera inspections. We offer trenchless repairs like CIPP relining and pipe bursting to minimize disruption.

Whether it’s a clogged kitchen sink or a full sewer backup, RooterBee has the tools and expertise to get your home flowing smoothly again.📞 Call Now
