Clogged drains, cleared right — not just unblocked.

About this service

Drain Cleaning in the Niagara Region

A clogged drain is more than an inconvenience — it's a warning. A slow kitchen sink, a gurgling toilet, water backing up in the basement floor drain when you run the washing machine: those are all symptoms of something specific, and the fix depends on what's actually causing it. The wrong tool on the wrong clog gets you a week of relief and another service call. We don't do that.

Ottr Plumr clears drains the right way across the Niagara Region. We start with a real diagnosis — usually a quick camera scope of the affected line — so we can see whether you're dealing with a grease plug under the kitchen sink, a hair-and-soap clog in a tub trap, tree roots in a clay sewer lateral, or a partial collapse in an aging line. Then we choose the tool that fixes the actual problem: a hand auger, a sectional cable machine, or full hydro-jetting at 4,000 PSI to scour the pipe walls back to bare pipe.

Niagara has a lot of older housing stock — century homes in St. Catharines and Niagara-on-the-Lake, post-war neighbourhoods in Welland and Port Colborne — and a lot of those properties still have clay or Orangeburg sewer laterals fighting tree roots every spring. We deal with this every week. We can clear roots, schedule annual maintenance jetting to keep them at bay, and quote a trenchless or open-cut replacement when the line is past saving.

And we leave the workspace cleaner than we found it. Drop cloths down, line cleared, line camera-verified clear before we pack up, written notes on what we found and what to watch for. No surprise charges — flat-rate pricing quoted before we touch a thing.
