We provide professional drain and sewer cleaning using rooter machines and high-pressure jetting equipment to effectively remove blockages and restore proper flow. ### What is the difference between rooter cleaning and high-pressure cleaning? Rooter cleaning uses a metal cable to break through blockages inside the pipe. High-pressure cleaning uses pressurized water to thoroughly clean the pipe walls, making it ideal for removing grease, buildup, and roots. ### When is a camera inspection recommended? A camera inspection is recommended when you experience recurring blockages, backups, or to assess the condition of your pipes. It allows us to accurately identify cracks, roots, or structural issues inside the drain. ### Can you clear a completely blocked drain? Yes. In most cases, we can successfully clear fully blocked drains. However, if the issue is caused by a collapsed or damaged pipe, additional repairs may be required. ### Do you offer emergency services for sewer backups? Yes. We offer emergency plumbing services for sewer backups to quickly resolve the issue and help minimize damage to your property. ### What are the signs of a drain or sewer problem? Common signs include slow draining water, sewer odors, gurgling sounds, frequent clogs, or water backing up in fixtures. These symptoms indicate that cleaning or inspection is needed. ### Can you remove roots from drains? Yes. We can cut and remove roots using specialized equipment. If roots continue to return, high-pressure cleaning or pipe repair may be recommended. ### Do you provide services in Laval and on the South Shore? Yes. We provide drain and sewer services in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, Brossard, Terrebonne, Blainville and throughout the greater Montreal area. Call 514-447-3700 to schedule a service. --- ## Contact Plomberie 5 Étoiles - Phone (24/7): 514-447-3700 - Email: info@plomberie5etoiles.com - Request a quote: https://www.plomberie5etoiles.com/en/schedule-plumber - Service area: Montreal, Laval, South Shore and North Shore (Quebec, Canada) --- ## Navigation - Previous: [Drain Cleaning Services](https://www.plomberie5etoiles.com/en/drain-cleaning.md) - Next: [Clogged Bathtub & Shower Drains](https://www.plomberie5etoiles.com/en/bathtubs-showers.md)
