Our Drain Cleaning Gladiators Will Save the Day!
As a homeowner, you rarely think about your plumbing—until something goes terribly wrong. And a clogged drain or serious blockage is high on the list of things that can go terribly wrong.
If one of these problems happens at your home, don’t panic. And, by all means, don’t soldier it alone. DIY repair efforts gone amok can cause more serious, costlier problems. Instead of trying to fix a clogged drain yourself, call Gideon. We’re the reinforcements that are second to none. We’ll get to the crux of the problem—and fix it fast.
Our fully licensed and highly experienced plumbers have the weapons you need to eliminate those nasty clogs. Our technicians are smart, experienced and friendly. They will explain exactly what is causing your clogged drain and the specific drain cleaning strategy they plan to use to resolve it.
Our Weapons of Choice
Depending on the severity of the clog as well as your budget challenges, we may suggest different strategies to handle the problem. They include:
- A handheld or drill-activated snake. These tools can reach up to 25 feet and are typically used for less severe clogs near the sink basin or toilet.
- An electric-powered snake. This snake can reach 50 to 75 feet and is an excellent weapon for most residential blockages. The snake is fed down the drain until it reaches the clog. Then, the snake’s bladed head goes to work on the clog.
- Hydrojetting. Grease, grime and other especially challenging clogs may require hydrojetting, which uses high-pressure water to break apart the blockage first—and then scrub the pipe clean.
- Bio-Clean. We use this amazing product to eliminate clogs, waste and odors in your pipes and drains without the risk of damage that harsh chemicals can cause. Bio-Clean is fast, effective and completely safe because it is made up of natural bacteria and enzymes. You can also purchase your own supply directly from Gideon!
No matter what method we use, we’ll get the job done quickly, professionally and completely.

How You Can Avoid Clogged Drains
