It’s Too Much for DIY Tools: A plunger or a basic snake can only do so much. Deeper clogs, especially in older homes, often need professional equipment to fully clear.
You’re Protecting Your Pipes: Harsh chemical drain cleaners can actually eat away at your pipes over time. We use safe methods that protect your plumbing.
Preventing Messy Backups: A slow drain today can become a total blockage tomorrow. Cleaning lines early helps you avoid overflows that ruin floors or cabinets.
Preparing to Sell or Rent: Nothing ruins a home showing or new rental faster than a gurgling drain or sewage smell. We help you keep everything in top shape.
You’re Done with the Smell: Clogs often trap old food, grease, or hair that starts to rot. Our cleanouts eliminate those odors at the source.
1. Schedule Your Service
It all starts with a call or online appointment. We’ll learn about what’s happening, whether it’s a single slow sink or multiple drains acting up.
2. On-Time Arrival
Our crew shows up when we say we will, ready to work. No long arrival windows or surprise charges, just reliable, on-schedule service.
3. Inspect and Diagnose
We start by assessing the problem. Sometimes it’s obvious, sometimes we use a small camera to see exactly what’s causing the blockage.
4. Clean and Clear
We use professional-grade drain snakes, augers, and hydro jetting tools to fully clear out the clog. No halfway jobs, your drain gets back to normal flow.
5. Final Testing and Clean-Up
We run water through your system to make sure everything is draining properly. Then we clean the work area, so the only sign we were there is that your drains work perfectly again.

“I have been very impressed with APES HVAC & Plumbing. They performed an HVAC inspection while I was under contract to purchase a home. Waylon, the service tech, was very thorough in both his inspection and reporting and took time on multiple occasions to discuss the findings and need for repairs via phone and text message. He always responded promptly and provided professional recommendations about repairs vs replacement of the aging HVAC system. The HVAC replacement cost including removing the old system was very reasonable for the market. I would use this company again and would recommend them to others.” – David Twitchell
“I own a large building that needs 10 units serviced. APES has always been fair and helpful and extremely transparent!” – Sean Shelton
“Ron was professional and respectful while getting my ac back on action!!! He fixed the problem that the prior technician failed to notice and was done quickly.” – Nick Young
