How it works
Our Dishwasher Drain Line Unclogging Process
01
Inspection
We start by checking your sink, dishwasher, and garbage disposal unit for standing water or slow draining. Using a drain camera, we locate the clog and check for p-trap leaks or pipe damage. This takes 15 to 20 minutes.
02
Setup
We place a bucket under the p-trap and put on gloves. We disconnect the dishwasher drain hose and inspect it for grease clog or food particle clog. We protect your cabinets and floor before we begin.
03
Clearing the Clog
Depending on the blockage, we use a drain snake, auger, or hydro jetting machine. For tough grease clogs or soap scum buildup, hydro jetting blasts the line clean. Most clogs clear in 30 to 60 minutes.
04
Testing and Reassembly
We reconnect the drain line with new plumber's tape and pipe sealant. Then we run the dishwasher through a cycle to confirm water drains freely. We check for leaks at the p-trap and drain pipe.
05
Cleanup and Advice
We clean up the work area and haul away any debris. Before we leave, we show you how to prevent future clogs, like running hot water after each cycle. We also offer preventive drain maintenance plans.
Tools & methods
Tools and Methods We Use
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
RIDGID Drain Snake
We use RIDGID drain snakes to break through food particle clogs and soap scum. The snake feeds through the drain line and hooks debris.
Milwaukee Auger
Milwaukee augers are powerful tools for tough clogs. We use them to clear grease clogs and food blockages in drain lines.
DrainX Hydro Jetting Machine
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to blast away grease and sludge. We use DrainX machines for deep cleaning.
General Pipe Cleaners Drain Camera
We use a drain camera to inspect the inside of your pipes. It helps us locate clogs and check for cracks or root intrusions.
Spartan Tool Auger
Spartan Tool augers are used for heavy-duty clogs. We use them for main sewer line clogs and commercial kitchen drains.
Pipe Wrench and Plumber's Tape
We use pipe wrenches to disconnect drain lines and plumber's tape to seal connections. This prevents leaks after reassembly.
Bucket and Gloves
We place a bucket under the p-trap to catch water and wear gloves for safety. This keeps your kitchen clean during the job.

We use drain snakes, augers, or hydro jetting to clear grease, food, and soap scum. It's different from just cleaning your dishwasher filter. We clear the entire drain line.
Grease, food particles, and soap scum buildup are the main causes. Hard water in Melrose Park makes soap scum worse. If you don't run hot water after cycles, grease hardens in the line. A garbage disposal jam can also block the drain. We clear the clog and show you how to prevent it.
