Know the Signs: When to Call for Professional Drain Services
Drain problems rarely pop up unexpectedly; they build up over time. The sooner you spot the signs, the easier (and less expensive) the fix is likely to be. Not sure if what you’re seeing is serious? Here are some common clues that your drains might need attention:
Warning Signs of Drain Trouble
- Slow Draining Sinks, Tubs, or Showers: Water pooling around your feet in the shower or taking forever to empty from the sink? That’s often the first sign of a partial blockage. If multiple drains are slow, the issue could be in the main line.
- Unpleasant Odors Coming From Drains: A sour or musty smell could indicate food buildup, bacteria, or even a sewer gas leak.
- Frequent Clogs: If plunging or natural drain cleaning solutions aren’t solving the issue, you may be dealing with a deeper blockage that needs professional equipment.
- Gurgling or Bubbling Sounds: These noises usually mean air is trapped in your pipes due to a blockage or poor venting.
- Water Backing Up in Odd Places: Water coming up in the tub when you flush the toilet? That points to a bigger issue in the main line.
- Standing Water Near Floor Drains: Any unexplained puddles or overflow near basement drains should be addressed right away.
- Soggy, Sunken, or Unusually Green Spots: If these signs are present on your property, you may be dealing with a break in the main line.
Not Sure What Drain Service You Need? We’ll Help You Figure It Out

Advanced Solutions for the Toughest Drain Problems
Some drain issues go beyond the usual clog. When the buildup is deep, damage is hidden, or other companies have already tried and failed, that’s when JG Water Heaters, Filtration and Plumbing brings in the big guns.
We don’t rely on guesswork or quick fixes. Our advanced tools and techniques are designed to solve the root of the problem safely, thoroughly, and with long-term results you can trust.
See What’s Really Going on Inside Your Drain Lines
We use in-line camera inspections to take the guesswork out of drain problems. By feeding a small, high-resolution camera directly into your pipes, we can see exactly what’s going on—whether it’s a clog, a crack, root intrusion, or buildup deep within the line. This lets us pinpoint the issue with precision, recommend the right solution, and get to work.
Hydro Jetting: Power-Cleaning Your Pipes From the Inside Out
For stubborn, recurring blockages caused by grease, sludge, roots, or mineral buildup, hydro jetting is our go-to solution. Using high-pressure water, we blast away years of gunk and debris from the inside of your pipes without damaging them. It’s safe. It’s powerful. And it often solves problems that snaking alone can’t touch.

If you’re dealing with a slow sink, a backed-up tub, or standing water in the yard, you need professional drain cleaning solutions that actually work—for good. JG Water Heaters, Filtration and Plumbing clears your drains fully and safely using the right tools for the job, whether that’s a traditional snake, high-powered hydro jetting, or a live camera inspection to see what’s really going on.

What Our Customers Say
Here are just a few of the great things our clients have said about us.
Excellent service with a level of honesty and integrity we have not experienced with other companies. Very impressed and grateful. When it DOES come time for us to replace our water heater, we will use JG.
Neighbor was having water heater installed, and we had been researching and getting bids/reviews. The installation Technician (Christian) gave us a bid, and told us they recommended, Bradford White. We asked how soon they could install a 50-gallon unit, and to our surprise he had one on his van. He installed the water heater, and replaced all ball valves for shut-offs. Very happy with the price, efficiency and quality of the work performed. Friendly and professional!
I called JG Water Heaters the morning after my 75 gallon gas water heater started leaking. Gregg came out right away and by 5pm his 3-man crew had installed a new tankless one along with all additional per-code gas line and new exhaust. They also changed out the old, faulty water pressure regulator that probably contributed to the leak. Great team. 120% great workmanship, supported by excellent leadership and infrastructure. Pretty perfect. Very highly recommended.
