Services
Camera Inspection
Our advanced camera inspection technology allows precise identification of pipe issues without unnecessary excavation. This non-invasive method detects cracks, root intrusions, and blockages in sewer and drain lines. Technicians analyze real-time video footage to develop targeted repair strategies, minimizing costs and property disruption while ensuring long-term solutions.
Drain Cleaning
Professional drain cleaning services address clogs and slow drainage using high-pressure hydro jetting and mechanical snakes. Our technicians remove buildup from grease, hair, and debris while identifying underlying issues. Regular maintenance prevents emergencies and extends system lifespan, ensuring optimal flow in residential and commercial plumbing networks.
Pipe Lining
Epoxy pipe lining offers a durable, trenchless solution for damaged sewer lines. This method reinforces existing pipes with a corrosion-resistant liner, eliminating the need for disruptive excavation. Ideal for aging Orangeburg or cast iron pipes, the process restores structural integrity while maintaining service continuity during installation.
Sewer Repair
Comprehensive sewer repair addresses collapsed pipes, root infiltration, and system failures using traditional and trenchless methods. Our specialists handle emergency leaks and chronic issues with minimal property impact. Services include connection repairs, line replacement, and preventative maintenance for residential and commercial properties.
Emergency Services
Available 24 hours daily, our emergency team addresses urgent plumbing crises including burst pipes, sewer backups, and gas leaks. Rapid response vehicles stocked with essential tools ensure immediate mitigation of water damage and safety hazards. Technicians prioritize containment before permanent repairs to minimize client disruption.

Plumber specialist Jordan Kenney listens to you from the get-go. He is very considerate and professional. Jordan K. went above and beyond. One of our kitchen sinks clogged and not only did he explain what he was going to do before he did the work but when he was done he noticed some items near the area of work being done that he kindly recommended to consider for future. He wasn't pushy about that to try to get extra work but explained the value for us to think of later in case we have more water damage later.
That was something good to know. He was treating the scenario as if it would be something he would do for his own home to safeguard his own family's needs. That was cool. Thank you Jordan K. Pacific Drain& plumbing is lucky to have you on their team! This was a great experience.

Have used Pacific Drain for all my sewer clearing needs in the past. The price for the exact same service went from $500 to $2100 since the new owners took over. The service tech was EXTREMELY helpful and professional and the manager was going to do the hydrojetting for $1000 because I was a repeat customer from the old ownership but it's still double! I can only imagine what has happened to the other prices they have. Don't call them first. They aren't the same reasonable company they were.

The plumber, Andrew Snoozy, that came to my home to replace a faucet, air gap and soap dispenser did a fantastic job. Very personable and knew his stuff. Would highly recommend them to anyone. The company itself is also great. I called the morning of not expecting anything for a couple days and they were out there in a couple hours.

Although my job was minor, the service I received from the technician was incredibly thorough. He was very knowledgeable about his profession and completed the job quickly. When he left the area, there was no mess left behind. As well as being professional, it was a pleasure speaking with him. Thank You for getting my kitchen working again. Eleanor

Pacific Drain and Plumbing were fantastic! They handled all of my plumbing issues with such professionalism and were extremely helpful and reliable. Three of their employees, Wayne, Grant, and Franky handled our home with great care and explained everything in great detail before they began working on our showers, water heater and water filtration replacements. Wayne in particular was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Best plumbers we have ever had to our home,

The sewer pipe from our home to the city sewer line was originally installed in the 40s. It's made out of tar paper called Orangeburg (cast iron was being diverted to the war effort). It's served us much longer than expected. But root intrusions and general degradation caused a portion of it to collapse. The folks at Pacific Drain came out and quickly repaired the collapsed section. But they took it an extra step.
They repaired our ancient sewer pipe by installing a sturdy epoxy liner inside of it, in under one day. This avoided the disruption of digging up the old pipe and replacing it. Now the pipe is good for another 25 years. Amazing! Their staff did an excellent job, were a pleasure to work with, and the price was very reasonable. I highly recommend Pacific Drain for sewer pipe repair.

Great service! Brandon came out and inspected the sewer pipes to give us an idea of what we had before our kitchen remodel. The whole thing was quick and painless. Told it how it was, was very acceptive of questions, very easy to work with. 10/10, will use again with any future projects.
