About This Service

Trusted Drain Cleaning Services Across Southern California

A clog is rarely just a clog. Reliable Pros Services handles drain cleaning across Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties — from the single slow bathroom sink to the restaurant main line that backs up every Friday at peak service.

The fix that lasts depends on what’s actually in the pipe. Our crews start with an HD camera, then choose the right tool: cable for a soft single-fixture clog, high-pressure hydro jetting when grease or roots have built up over years, or targeted drain repair when the pipe itself is broken. Up-front pricing, written warranty on every visit.

When more than one drain backs up at once — or when sewage is coming up where it shouldn’t — that’s a main-line emergency and we dispatch the next available truck. Most calls in our service area are on-site the same day, often within hours.

The Full Range of Drain Cleaning Services, Under One Roof

Targeted solutions our licensed Southern California pros handle every day — every job done right the first time, with up-front pricing and a written warranty.

Drain Clearing

Cable, auger, and snake clearing for kitchen, bath, laundry, and floor drains. Best for soft clogs — hair, soap scum, food waste — anywhere a single fixture has slowed or stopped.

Hydro Jetting

High-pressure water at 3,500–4,000 PSI scours grease, scale, and root mass off the inside of the pipe. Restores full bore on kitchen and main lines that keep re-clogging.

Drain Repair

When a drain keeps backing up after clearing, the pipe itself is the problem. We camera-locate the break, then repair or replace the affected section with minimal hardscape damage.

Clogged Drain Services

Multiple drains backing up at once usually means the main line — not the fixture. Same-day diagnosis, clear pricing, and we don't leave until water runs as it should.

Frequently Asked

Drain Cleaning Services — Answered

What homeowners across LA, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties ask us most often. Have another question? Call or write — a real human always answers.

How much does a typical drain cleaning cost in Southern California?

A single-fixture cable clearing runs in the low to mid hundreds depending on access (cleanout vs. roof vent vs. removed toilet) and time of day. Hydro jetting a main line costs more because of equipment and time on-site, but it lasts far longer than cabling. We quote a fixed price before any work starts — no diagnostic fee if you proceed with the repair the same visit.

Cable clearing or hydro jetting — which one do I actually need?

Cable clearing punches a hole through a soft clog and gets water moving — perfect for hair, soap, or a single grease blockage. Hydro jetting strips the pipe wall back to clean pipe and removes years of buildup. For a one-off bathroom clog: cable. For a kitchen line that clogs every six months or a main line full of root mass: jet. We run the camera first so the recommendation is based on what's actually in the pipe.

Will hydro jetting damage older pipes?

On a healthy line — including older clay tile and cast iron — properly operated hydro jetting cleans the pipe without harming it. We adjust nozzle and pressure based on what the camera shows. If the line is fractured, collapsed, or has Orangeburg sections, we'll flag that and recommend a repair or trenchless rehab instead of jetting. We never jet a line we wouldn't jet at our own home.

Can a clogged drain damage my floors, walls, or foundation?

Yes — and quickly. An overflowing toilet or sink can saturate flooring, drywall, and subfloor in under an hour, and a main-line backup pushes wastewater up through every low drain in the building. If you see water on the floor, shut the main supply, stop using fixtures, and call us — we run priority dispatch for active overflows so the damage doesn't compound.

How can I keep my drains clear between service calls?

The biggest wins are simple: no grease, coffee grounds, or food scraps down the kitchen; strainers on every shower and tub; flushable wipes are not flushable; and an annual main-line camera + jet on older homes with mature trees. For restaurants and multi-unit buildings, scheduled quarterly jetting prevents the 2 a.m. emergency that closes you for a day.
