Drain Cleaning and Drain Augering in Calgary
Fast, Reliable Solutions for Clogged Drains & Sewer Backups
Why Choose Professional Drain Cleaning in Calgary
Many homeowners reach for chemical drain cleaners or plungers when a clog appears, but these quick fixes rarely solve the underlying problem. In Calgary, issues like grease buildup, tree root intrusion, and scale inside older pipes often require specialized tools to properly clear.
Our team uses professional-grade equipment — from augers and power snakes to high-pressure hydro-jetting systems — to completely remove the blockage and restore proper flow. The result is a longer-lasting solution that protects your home and plumbing.
Our Drain Cleaning Process
When you call AAA Heating & Plumbing, you’ll get more than a temporary fix. We take the time to diagnose the problem and use the best method for your situation. In most cases, that means beginning with a camera inspection to locate the blockage.
From there, we select the right technique — whether it’s mechanical snaking for a small clog or sewer jetting for a main line obstruction. Once the drain is clear, we test the system thoroughly to ensure the problem is resolved before we leave.
Common Drain Problems We Solve
Our technicians are trained to handle any type of clogged or blocked drain in Calgary homes and businesses. This includes:
- Kitchen sinks and dishwashers blocked by grease or food waste
- Bathroom drains clogged by hair, soap, and mineral buildup
- Floor drains and laundry room backups
- Sewer line obstructions caused by roots, scale, or collapsed pipes
- Storm drains and outdoor drains affected by dirt and debris
No matter where the blockage occurs, AAA Heating & Plumbing has the tools and experience to fix it fast.
Drain Cleaning Cost in Calgary
The cost of drain cleaning in Calgary depends on several factors, including the location of the blockage, the severity of the clog, and the method required to clear it.
Simple clogs may be resolved with snaking, while sewer line issues may require hydro-jetting or camera inspections. At AAA Heating & Plumbing, we believe in transparency — you’ll always receive an up-front estimate before work begins, with no hidden fees.
Our Sewer/Drain Video Inspection Service
Sometimes the cause of a blocked or slow drain isn’t obvious. That’s where our sewer and drain video inspection service comes in. Using specialized waterproof cameras, we can look directly inside your pipes to identify the exact problem — whether it’s grease buildup, tree root intrusion, collapsed piping, or hidden obstructions.
Video inspections allow us to pinpoint the issue without unnecessary digging or guesswork. Once we know the source, we can recommend the most effective solution, from hydro-jetting to targeted repairs. This service not only saves time and money but also provides peace of mind by giving you a clear picture of your plumbing system’s condition.
Drain Cleaning | Drain Augering FAQ
When should I call for professional drain cleaning?
If plunging doesn’t work, water drains slowly, or sewage backs up, it’s time to call a licensed technician.
What’s the difference between snaking and hydro-jetting?
Snaking breaks through small clogs, while hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the inside of pipes for a thorough clean.
How often should drains be cleaned?
For most homes, once every 1–2 years is enough to prevent buildup. Older homes or properties with large trees may need more frequent cleaning.
