Our licensed plumbers serve Clark, Cowlitz, and Skamania Counties, working with restaurants, retail spaces, office buildings, property managers, multi-family properties, and industrial facilities to maintain reliable, code-compliant plumbing systems.
Common Commercial Drain Problems
Commercial plumbing systems handle heavy daily use. Over time, grease, food waste, soap, sediment, and debris accumulate inside drain lines — restricting flow, creating odors, and eventually causing backups that can shut down operations.ecurring clogs.
Common issues we address include:
- Grease buildup in commercial kitchen drain lines
- Food waste and organic debris blockages
- Slow-draining floor drains and utility sinks
- Repeated restroom drain clogs
- Persistent drain odors from trapped buildup
- Main line backups affecting the entire facility
- Sediment accumulation in older pipe systems
- Tree root intrusion in exterior drain and sewer lines
Left untreated, these problems lead to sewage backups, property damage, health code violations, and expensive emergency repairs.
Our Commercial Drain Cleaning Services
Heritage Plumbing uses professional tools and equipment sized for commercial work — not just residential service calls. Our team assesses the problem, explains the findings, and recommends the most effective solution for your building’s specific plumbing system.
Drain Snaking/Augering
Mechanical cable augers break through clogs caused by debris, paper products, and moderate buildup. An effective first-line tool for many commercial drain issues.
Where a drain snake can punch a hole through a clog, hydro jetting fully scours the pipe wall — cutting through heavy grease columns, flushing root intrusion, breaking apart scale buildup, and clearing debris that would return as a clog within weeks. For restaurant grease traps, kitchen main lines, floor drain systems, and municipal lateral connections, jetting is often the only method that delivers a lasting result.
Floor Drain Cleaning
Essential for restaurants, commercial kitchens, warehouses, and industrial facilities where floor drains collect heavy grease, food waste, and debris. Regular floor drain clearing helps prevent backups and odor complaints.
Main Line Drain Clearing
We clear blockages in a building’s primary drain line to restore full flow throughout the entire plumbing system. For large facilities, main line work is where the EAGLE 200’s capacity and pressure become a decisive advantage.
Preventative Drain Maintenance Programs
Many commercial drain emergencies are preventable. Scheduled drain cleaning — quarterly, semi-annually, or annually depending on your facility’s usage — helps prevent grease buildup, eliminates root intrusion before it causes backups, and reduces costly emergency calls.
Heritage Plumbing can develop a preventative drain maintenance plan tailored to your building’s specific plumbing load and history.
Drain Diagnostics
If clogs keep returning despite regular clearing, there’s an underlying issue that needs to be identified. We help pinpoint root causes — damaged pipe sections, improper slope, root infiltration, or deteriorated joints — so the problem gets fixed, not just temporarily managed.
High-Pressure Hydro Jetting with the EAGLE 200 Trailer Jetter
For demanding commercial drain cleaning jobs, Heritage Plumbing now deploys the EAGLE 200 Trailer Jetter — a professional-grade, trailer-mounted water jetting system built for serious commercial work.
Powered by a Kawasaki 31HP fuel-injected, liquid-cooled V-twin engine and a UDOR super-duty pump, the EAGLE 200 delivers:
- Up to 4,000 PSI of water pressure
- 10 GPM flow rate (4010 model) for thorough pipe scouring
- 200-gallon on-board water tank — arrives ready to work without a water supply hookup
- 400 feet of professional jetting hose — reaches deep into commercial drain systems
- Wireless remote operation with a tested range of up to seven city blocks — true one-technician deployment
