From one stubborn kitchen sink to a main line that has every drain in the house backing up. All Clear finds the clog, clears it with the right equipment, and tells you what caused it.
Every drain in the house, and the line they all run into
Kitchen sinks
Grease, food scraps and coffee grounds build up in the trap and the line behind it until the sink holds water.
Bathroom sinks, tubs and showers
Hair binds with soap scum. Bar soap leaves a film that catches everything else.
Toilets
Wipes, toys and anything else that should not be flushed get lodged in the pipe.
Floor and laundry drains
Basements, garages, utility rooms and laundry lines collect dirt and lint until water stands.
Main drain line
More than one drain slow or backing up at once usually means the blockage is down in the main line.
Commercial drains
Restaurants, offices, retail spaces and apartment buildings, where a backed-up drain stops business.
How we clear it
We work out what we are dealing with before we pick a tool
1
Diagnose the clog
Where it is, what it is doing, and whether it is one fixture or something further down the line.
2
Clear it with the right equipment
Professional drain snakes and cable machines for most clogs. Hydro jetting for grease, roots and repeat clogs, to clean the full width of the pipe.
3
Look for the cause
If it keeps coming back, a sewer camera can show cracks, roots or a sagging section, so you know what you are fixing.
Repeat clogs
Why does my drain keep clogging?
A drain that clogs once might be bad luck. A drain that clogs again and again almost always has a cause.
Cooking grease
coats the pipe walls, hardens and narrows the line over time.
Hair and soap
knot together in bathroom drains.
Hard water
leaves mineral deposits that restrict flow.
Tree roots
find cracks and joints in sewer lines and grow inside them.
Sagging or cracked pipe
collects debris in the low spot, so it clogs again even after cleaning.
Stratford homes
Drain trouble around Stratford, season by season
Fall is when leaves pack the gutters and the buried lines that carry downspout water away from the house. Once those back up, a hard rain sends water toward the foundation, and basement floor drains are the first place it shows.
After a big holiday meal, pour the grease in the trash, not the sink. Grease is one of the most common causes of a kitchen clog.
Mature trees on older lots send roots toward any crack in a sewer line. If your drains slow down every year or two in the same way, roots are a likely suspect, and a camera inspection will show it.

"Charlie and Joel came by to help me with a kitchen sink clog I had been struggling with for a few days. They got it cleared out in less than half an hour, and explained what was causing the clog. Would definitely recommend: professional service, fair pricing, and quick service (was able to get help the day after calling)."

Call (203) 943-8722, describe what the drain is doing, and judge the answer you get.
I needed to have my main sewer line replaced and was quoted between $21k - $25k from bigger name companies. I was at my wits end when after further researching more local companies, I came across All Clear and it was the best decision. Not only was the work completed efficiently, and quicker than I expected, but the cost was nearly half of the quotes. Frank Sabato stopped by my house the morning after I made the call and put my anxiety at ease. His knowledge, expertise and calm demeanor created trust and I would recommend his services in a heartbeat.

The service was quick, professional and courteous. The two young men were very nice and knowledgeable. The only thing I would suggest is to have employees where shoe coverings

This is an A+ business. Without going into detail for the sake of leaving a pointed and accurate review, there was a discrepancy about the status of our sewer line. When I reached out to Frank, we discussed it and much to my immediate pleasure, he absolutely agreed that he was responsible for the work. There was no argument and no back-and-forth. And this was not a small job that they were accountable for. There are very few companies nowadays who take ownership of their work and back it up. It’s always a fight, or many conversations and adds to the stress of daily life. Frank and his team took care of the work, and they did it professionally and without drama, issue or guilt. To say I recommend this company is an understatement. Thank you, Frank and team.

All Clear did a professional job. Charlie was a powerhouse under Frank’s leadership, drilling the holes so that the drainage could occur without flooding our basement, using modern camera and scope technology to find the problem, and even giving suggestions to protect our home as we move ahead. Worth the money to go with a local company that gets the job done with care and expertise.

They fixed the issue efficiently and made sure everything was running perfectly before leaving. I really appreciated their professionalism, urgency, and the care they took to get the job done right. It’s hard to find service like this these days! I highly recommend them to anyone who needs reliable and fast sewer or drain service…

I'm a new home owner and was shopping around for a plumber for a sewer issue. Every plumber I called they want to first provided a diagnostic camera inspection before quoting the job, doesn't matter if the plumber can get a visual or not because of tree root blockage or if he/she takes 1min to do the work, they will still charge you for this service. Franks pricing was reasonable compared to competitors. I hired Frank for a full sewer line replacement. I called him on a Sunday evening, he responded on the first call and was very attentive on the call. He came out to the property on Monday and began work on Tuesday. Frank pulled the necessary DOB permits and he supplied photos and videos while I went to work and maintain clear communication throughout the project. Frank's suggestions for the new installations show how helpful and good faith he has for his clients. He supervised his crew closely to ensure all work met code requirements. We liked his work so much we had him install a sump pump for us. He is reliable, transparent with pricing, and consistently available to address questions or concerns. The quality and finish of the work were excellent. He also teaches you how to do maintenance on the work he just did. I would not hesitate to hire Frank again and highly recommend his services to any homeowner seeking a trustworthy and skilled professional. Thanks Mr. Frank and Team!!

Questions
Drain cleaning questions
Why does my drain keep clogging after I clear it?
A drain that clogs once can be bad luck. One that clogs over and over has a cause: grease on the pipe walls, roots in the line, or a cracked or sagging section that catches debris. Plunging moves the clog. Cleaning the full pipe, or a camera look at the line, finds the reason.
Should I pour drain cleaner down it first?
Store-bought drain cleaner often will not shift a stubborn clog. If a plunger has not worked either, it is time for a drain machine. Call (203) 943-8722.
What is hydro jetting?
High-pressure water that scours the full width of the pipe. All Clear uses it for grease buildup, roots and clogs that keep coming back. Most single clogs are cleared with a drain snake or cable machine instead.
Is a slow drain an emergency?
One slow drain usually is not. It is urgent when sewage comes up a toilet, tub or floor drain, or when several drains back up at once. Stop using the water and call (203) 943-8722.
Do you clean drains for businesses?
Yes. All Clear cleans drains for restaurants, offices, retail properties, apartment buildings and other commercial spaces, as well as homes across Stratford and nearby towns.
