Common Diagnostics & Solutions

Typical Problems We Resolve in Drain Cleaning & Hydro-Jetting.

New York residential and commercial properties require specialized mechanical diagnostics. Here are the most common challenges our licensed master technicians handle every day.

Main Sewer Line Backing Up into Lower Level

Probable Cause:

Tree roots penetrating pipe joints, collapsed clay sewer lines, or years of accumulated wet wipe blockages.

How Agape Fixes It:

Heavy-duty 3/4-inch mechanical root-cutting snakes followed by high-definition fiberoptic camera inspection.

Kitchen Sink Gurgling & Refusing to Drain

Probable Cause:

Coagulated cooking oil, lard, soap scum, and starch buildup hardening along pipe walls like calcified arteries.

How Agape Fixes It:

Commercial electric sink machines and hydro-scrubbing that scours pipe walls back to original diameter.

Bathtub or Shower Standing in Dirty Water

Probable Cause:

Hair, soap scum, and body oils forming dense plugs around the crossbar and deep inside the drum trap.

How Agape Fixes It:

Targeted mechanical drop-head snaking and chemical-free extraction of the blockage.

Foul Sewer Odors Rising from Drains

Probable Cause:

Dried out P-traps, unseated cleanout caps, or cracked vent pipes allowing sewer gas to seep into living quarters.

How Agape Fixes It:

Trap seal restoration, mechanical cleanout seal replacement, and smoke testing if necessary.

Repeated Clogs Returning Every Few Weeks

Probable Cause:

Store-bought chemical drain cleaners only punch tiny pinholes through clogs, allowing debris to snag immediately.

How Agape Fixes It:

Full HD sewer camera inspection to reveal the real cause (bellied pipes, roots, or broken fittings).

Commercial Restaurant Grease Trap Backups

Probable Cause:

Heavy grease accumulation overwhelming lines and violating NYC DEP wastewater compliance codes.

How Agape Fixes It:

4,000 PSI high-pressure hydro-jetting to scour grease out of lines with zero harsh chemicals.

Drain Cleaning & Hydro-Jetting Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Why shouldn't I use liquid chemical drain cleaners from the hardware store?

Chemical drain cleaners contain sulfuric acid or lye. They generate intense heat that can soften PVC pipes, crack old cast iron, and dissolve pipe joints. If they fail to clear the clog, your pipes remain filled with toxic chemicals dangerous to technicians.

What is hydro-jetting and how does it work?

Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water (up to 4,000 PSI) delivered through specialized reverse-thrust nozzles. While a traditional snake only punches a hole through a clog, hydro-jetting completely washes away grease, scale, and roots, scouring the pipe back to like-new condition.

Can you clear clogs in old cast-iron pipes in brownstones?

Yes. Our technicians adjust machine torque and select specialized cleaning heads tailored specifically for pre-war cast iron to remove scale without fracturing delicate pipe walls.

Do you provide video camera recordings of the sewer line?

Yes. Our video inspection cameras capture high-definition footage that we can review with you on-site and provide via email for insurance or building board documentation.
