Preventive Sewer and Drain Maintenance Services
YJ Sewer & Drain offers scheduled maintenance built around the needs, conditions, and service history of commercial properties, HOAs, and condominiums.
Why Preventive Maintenance Matters
Drainage problems can worsen when left unaddressed. Common examples include:
- Recurring slow drains
- Unpleasant odors
- Sewer backups
- Grease buildup
- Sediment accumulation
- Tree root intrusion
- Other debris
YJ Sewer & Drain offers preventive sewer maintenance services to commercial and managed residential properties. Regular maintenance allows us to identify signs of a drainage issue and take appropriate action.
Services Included in Your Plan
Each maintenance plan can include services suitable for your property’s needs, condition, and service history. Depending on the agreement, our scheduled sewer cleaning services typically involve:
- Sewer Rodding. We use mechanical equipment to target and clear physical obstructions in the sewer line.
- Hydro Jetting. We use high-pressure water to clean pipes, removing grease, sediment, sludge, and other buildup.
- Video Inspections. We use specialized cameras to locate and assess drainage problems.
- Exterior Drain Cleaning. We clean exterior drains and lines to reduce recurring sewer issues.
- Catch Basin or Storm Drain Cleaning. We maintain and clean stormwater drainage structures and lines, removing sediment, leaves, litter, sludge, and other debris.
Sewer and Drain Cleaning
Scheduled rodding or hydro jetting can help remove recurring buildup and restore water flow. While similar, rodding and hydrojetting are not the same.
Sewer rodding involves targeted removal of blockages using mechanical equipment. Meanwhile, recurring hydro-jetting removes grease, sediment, and sludge from the interior walls of the sewer line using high-pressure water.
YJ Sewer & Drain chooses the appropriate drain maintenance services depending on the line’s condition, the type of buildup, your service history, and inspection findings.
Video Inspections
Camera inspections provide a view of the sewer line’s interior condition. They can help document pipe conditions, locate recurring problem areas, and determine whether cleaning or repair is recommended.
YJ Sewer & Drain uses a specialized camera to identify visible obstructions or damage. Routine sewer inspections allow us to investigate the source of the problem and develop a maintenance plan for your property.
Catch Basin and Storm Drain Maintenance
Exterior drainage systems can collect leaves, sediment, litter, sludge, and other debris over time. These obstructions can restrict water flow, resulting in standing water or localized flooding.
YJ Sewer & Drain provides storm drain and catch basin maintenance regularly. We can remove buildup and help maintain exterior drainage systems, including pumping, vacuum removal, rodding, hydro jetting, and other cleaning methods.
We also provide seasonal scheduling for properties that experience recurring problems due to storms, fallen leaves, and other periodic activity.
Your Maintenance Schedule
There is no universal maintenance schedule that suits every property. Here at YJ Sewer & Drain, we recommend service frequency based on the following factors:
- Property usage
- Sewer and drainage system condition
- History of backups and clogs
- Line configuration
- Pipe materials and age
- Grease or sediment accumulation
- Tree root concerns
- Landscaping and surrounding conditions
- Seasonal drainage concerns
- Inspection findings
- Results from past maintenance
We can also adjust your sewer maintenance plans as conditions change.
