Clear Blockages. Restore Flow. Prevent Bigger Problems.

Slow drains and recurring clogs are more than just an inconvenience—they’re often early signs of a larger sewer line issue. At Dan’s Drains and Digs, we provide professional sewer and drain cleaning in Colorado Springs to clear blockages, restore flow, and help prevent costly repairs.

What’s Causing Your Drain Problem?

Drain issues can come from a variety of sources, and identifying the cause is the first step to fixing it properly.

Common Causes of Drain & Sewer Issues:

  • Tree root intrusion into sewer lines
  • Grease, sludge, and debris buildup
  • Pipe deterioration or corrosion
  • Ground shifting causing pipe misalignment
  • Long-term buildup in older plumbing systems

If problems keep coming back, a deeper sewer line issue may be the cause.

Main Sewer Lines

Your main sewer line connects your entire home or building to the city sewer system. When this line becomes blocked or damaged, it can affect every drain in your property.

Signs of Main Line Problems:

  • Multiple drains backing up at once
  • Slow drainage throughout the home
  • Gurgling sounds in pipes
  • Sewage odors

Our Solution:
We clear the blockage and inspect the line to determine if additional repair is needed.

Secondary Drain Lines

Secondary drain lines include kitchen, bathroom, laundry, and floor drains. These lines handle everyday use and are prone to buildup over time.

Common Issues:

  • Grease buildup in kitchen drains
  • Hair and soap residue in bathroom drains
  • Debris accumulation in floor drains

Routine cleaning helps keep these systems working properly and prevents larger issues from developing.

Kitchen Drains

Kitchen drains are one of the most heavily used drains in any home.

Common Problems:

  • Grease and food buildup
  • Slow drainage
  • Recurring clogs

If left untreated, buildup can lead to pipe damage or even require excavation if the line deteriorates.

Bathroom Drains

Bathroom drains include sinks, tubs, showers, and toilets—all of which can become clogged over time.

Common Causes:

  • Hair buildup
  • Soap residue
  • Mineral deposits

In older homes, pipes may be too deteriorated for simple cleaning and may require repair.

Frequently Asked Questions?

For most Colorado Springs homes with older clay or cast iron pipe and mature trees on the property, a professional drain cleaning every year. Homes with newer PVC lines and no significant root pressure can often go longer. Properties with a history of grease buildup or recurring clogs may benefit from annual service. A camera inspection gives a more accurate answer for your specific line than any general schedule.

Drain cleaning typically refers to clearing individual fixture drains — kitchen sinks, bathroom drains, tub drains — that are slow or blocked. Sewer cleaning refers to clearing the main lateral line that runs from the house to the city connection. Main line issues affect multiple fixtures at once and usually require hydro jetting or mechanical cleaning from the cleanout rather than a fixture-level approach.

Yes. Hydro jetting cleans drain lines using high-pressure water rather than a mechanical cable. It’s more thorough than snaking for lines with scale buildup or grease accumulation, and it doesn’t require physical contact with the blockage. For simple, surface-level clogs, snaking is often faster and more cost-effective. For recurring problems or buildup along the pipe walls, hydro jetting addresses the cause rather than just the symptom.

The clearest sign is when multiple fixtures back up or drain slowly at the same time — a toilet that gurgles when you run the washing machine, or a floor drain that backs up when someone showers. Single-fixture problems are usually localized. When the issue crosses multiple fixtures or different areas of the house, the main sewer line is almost always involved. A camera inspection confirms the location and cause.
