What Is Drain Rodding?

 Rodding uses a long, flexible metal rod — sometimes called a snake or auger — fed directly into the drain or sewer line. As the rod is advanced, it breaks apart or retrieves blockages that are too dense or deep for chemical treatments or standard snaking. It's one of the most effective methods for clearing tree roots, compacted debris, and heavy grease buildups. 

When Rodding Is the Right Call

  • Drain cleaning hasn't resolved a persistent clog
  • Tree roots have infiltrated the sewer line
  • Sewage backing up into basement drains or toilets
  • Older home with cast iron or clay pipes
  • Complete blockage with no drainage at all
