Clogged Drain Cleaning Services in Toronto

Our seasoned team provides preventative maintenance to prevent sewage overflow due to grease build-up. Our seasoned professionals will snake your kitchen stack and de-clog any drains. We will ensure there is a minimal opening for the water to drain.

The technicians will use a unique professional-grade machine that uses metal springs to clear out any blockage.

After snaking is done, we ensure the kitchen stack has a minimal opening inside for draining water. Then our professional technicians bring professional-grade powerwash equipment to cut the grease.

Our professional powerwash equipment runs will run large amounts of hot water at 3000PSI. This pressure will clear out any grease clogging your sanitary pipes. Return your pipes to “new” condition.

After power washing, we will inspect the pipe with a camera to ensure that the pipe is clear. Don’t worry about clogs again. Use your dishwasher and kitchen sink safely without worrying about sewage overflow. Call our trusted POM Plumbing Inc. team today to find out more.

Do I need a camera inspection after drain cleaning?

Yes, a post-cleaning camera inspection is highly recommended after drain cleaning. It allows professional plumbers to visually confirm that the blockage has been completely removed and that there is no residual debris left in the pipes. This is especially important in kitchen stack cleaning where grease buildup can line the walls of vertical pipes and cause recurring issues. Without a camera inspection, it’s possible to miss partial clogs or hidden pipe damage, which can lead to future backups.

For property managers and condo owners, camera inspections offer peace of mind and documented proof of a job well done. It also helps identify potential issues like pipe corrosion, cracks, or intrusions that may require future attention. When paired with services like drainage cleaning or clogged drain repair, a camera inspection becomes a critical step to ensure the long-term health of the building’s plumbing infrastructure.

Is professional clogged drain repair necessary if water is draining slowly but not fully blocked?

Absolutely. Slow drainage is one of the earliest warning signs of a developing clog and should never be ignored. It often indicates that grease, soap scum, or debris is narrowing the pipe, reducing flow. Over time, without intervention, that narrow passage can become completely blocked, leading to water backups, foul odors, and potential flooding.

A professional plumber can accurately diagnose the cause of slow drainage and use methods like snaking or hydro jetting to resolve the issue before it escalates. For condo units, this is especially critical as one unit’s plumbing problem can affect multiple floors through the shared kitchen stack. 

Early action is far more cost-effective and far less invasive than emergency repairs. Incorporating clogged drain cleaning services into regular maintenance can prevent damage to fixtures, appliances, and even drywall or flooring from unexpected leaks.

Your kitchen stack is a sanitary/sewage pipe that collects dirty water from the dishwasher and kitchen sink. It sends wastewater to the main drain of the building. This water empties to the city sewage system.

However, grease build-up will cause serious issues. Dumped greasy water in the kitchen sink will cool and harden over time. The building will grow along the pipe walls within seconds.

The solid and sticky grease makes the pipe opening smaller and smaller over time. Eventually, the grease build-up grows so much that wastewater cannot drain.

At this point, you will get a severe kitchen sink back-up (or sanitary back-up). Because the sanitary stack opening is sealed by accumulated grease water, the wastewater cannot escape. Instead, the sewage accumulates inside the pipe.

The level rises until it reaches the top of your kitchen sink. When the wastewater rises, dirty smell sewage rises through your dishwasher and might overflow on the floor. This results in severe damage to your apartment.

The sewage might destroy your neighbors’ apartments below, as well. Avoid this terrible nightmare by calling POM Plumbing Inc.

How often should kitchen stack cleaning be done in Toronto condos?

In Toronto condominiums, it is strongly recommended to perform kitchen stack cleaning at least once a year. Kitchen stacks are vertical pipes that connect the kitchen drains of multiple units in a building. Over time, these stacks accumulate grease, food particles, soap residue, and other debris that can lead to serious blockages. Neglecting regular maintenance of kitchen stacks can result in:

• Clogged pipes, which slow down drainage or cause complete blockages.
• Water backup, especially into sinks of lower-level units.
• Unpleasant odors rising through the pipes and entering living spaces.
• Emergency plumbing situations that are expensive and disruptive to repair.

Annual cleaning helps maintain smooth drainage, prevent damage to shared plumbing infrastructure, and ensure a healthy living environment for all residents.
