Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting

Drain Cleaning & Hydro Jetting in Virginia Beach & Hampton Roads

A slow drain is a warning; a backed-up drain is a problem you can’t ignore. Tidemark Plumbing clears kitchen sinks, bathroom sinks, tubs, showers, toilets, laundry standpipes and floor drains using the right machine for the line — not a one-size-fits-all bottle of chemicals that can damage older pipes.

For recurring clogs and main line backups we run a waterproof camera through the pipe to see exactly what is going on: grease build-up, tree roots, a sagging “belly” or a broken joint. When the line needs more than a cable, high-pressure hydro jetting scours the pipe walls clean so the clog doesn’t come right back.

Many homes in Virginia Beach and Chesapeake still have original cast-iron or clay drain lines, and some older Norfolk neighborhoods have Orangeburg pipe that deforms over time. Knowing what your drain is made of matters — we’ll show you the camera footage and explain whether cleaning is enough or a section needs repair.
