Drain Cleaning Contractors in Edina, Minnesota
Clogged drain clearing, sewer line cleaning, and camera inspections..
Drain cleaning contractors clear clogged drains in sinks, tubs, showers, floor drains, and main sewer lines using snaking (augering), hydro jetting, and camera inspection technology. Simple clogs near the fixture can often be cleared quickly with a cable snake, while main sewer line blockages may require hydro jetting (high-pressure water) to remove grease, scale, and root intrusion. Sewer camera inspection identifies the location and cause of the blockage and reveals pipe condition — this is especially valuable for older homes where clay or cast iron sewer lines may be cracked, offset, or root-infiltrated. Recurring clogs in the same drain often indicate a deeper issue that snaking alone won't permanently solve.
What to look for when hiring a drain cleaning contractor
- ✓Ask about their equipment — cable snake, hydro jetter, and sewer camera capabilities.
- ✓Request a camera inspection for recurring clogs or main line issues before committing to expensive repairs.
- ✓Get the service call/diagnostic fee upfront and confirm what's included.
- ✓Ask whether the price is flat-rate or hourly — flat-rate is preferred for predictability.

General Drain Cleaning FAQs
How much does drain cleaning cost?
Simple drain clearing (sink, tub, or shower) costs $100–$250. Toilet clearing: $100–$200. Main sewer line snaking: $200–$400. Hydro jetting (high-pressure water for stubborn or recurring clogs): $350–$600. Sewer camera inspection: $100–$300. Most drain cleaning companies charge a flat rate per drain rather than hourly. Emergency or after-hours calls carry a premium of 50–100% above standard rates. For recurring clogs, a camera inspection ($100–$300) can identify the underlying cause — root intrusion, pipe damage, or grease buildup — and determine whether a permanent fix is needed.
What causes recurring drain clogs?
Recurring clogs in the same drain indicate an underlying problem that snaking alone won't permanently fix. Common causes: tree root intrusion into older clay or cast iron sewer pipes (roots enter through joints and cracks), bellied or sagging pipe sections that collect debris, partially collapsed pipe, grease buildup in kitchen drains (grease coats the pipe interior over time, narrowing the passage), and scale buildup in older cast iron pipes. A sewer camera inspection reveals the exact cause and location. Solutions range from hydro jetting (for grease and scale) to pipe repair or replacement (for structural damage and root infiltration).
