What we clear

  • Kitchen sink clogs from grease and food waste
  • Slow bathroom sinks, showers and tubs (hair and soap build-up)
  • Toilet clogs and toilets that clog over and over
  • Main sewer line backups
  • Laundry and floor drains

When it’s more than one drain

If several fixtures are slow at once, the toilet gurgles when the washer drains, or water comes up in a basement floor drain, the problem is usually in the main line, not the fixture. That needs a cable machine on the main, not more drain cleaner.

Please skip the chemical drain cleaners

Store-bought drain chemicals rarely clear a real blockage, can damage older pipes, and make the job dangerous for whoever opens the line next. If a plunger doesn’t fix it, call.

Common questions

Why does my drain keep clogging?

Repeat clogs usually mean build-up deeper in the line, a sagging or damaged pipe, or a venting problem. MJ looks for the cause rather than just poking a hole through the clog.

Is a main line backup an emergency?

If sewage is coming up in a tub, shower or floor drain, stop using water in the house and call right away: 667-371-1242.

Do you clean drains in older homes?

Yes. Older cast-iron and galvanized drains need careful handling, and MJ will tell you if a section of pipe is near the end of its life.
