Gene's Plumbing handles drain cleaning across New Salem and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
Kitchen lines clog with grease, bathroom lines with hair and soap, and main lines with roots. The New Salem drain gets cleared with whichever machine actually suits it, cable or hydro jet.
Every house handles drain cleaning a little differently depending on its age, and New Salem has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the New Salem truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The drain cleaning job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
The order we work in, and why.
A plumber asks the questions on the phone that narrow it down, so the right parts and the right machine are already on the truck when it arrives.
A gauge goes on the system, a camera goes down the line, or the meter gets checked with everything off — whichever actually answers the question. Nobody quotes a repair on a guess.
If there is a cheaper option that will actually hold, you hear about it. If the cheap option is a patch that fails in six months, you hear that too.
Before the truck goes you see it working — the drain running, the pressure holding, the pit cycling — not just a thumbs up from the driveway.
Common questions, answered plainly.

Real reviews from real service calls.
"Burst pipe in the crawlspace in January. He had the main off and the section cut out before I finished explaining. Pressure tested it in front of me before he closed it up."
"Hard water was eating our fixtures. Softener sized off the test, installed neat with unions so it can be serviced, and they showed me how to set the salt."
"Kitchen drain had been slow for a year. Ran the cable, then put a camera down and showed me the grease ring on his screen. Explained what to stop pouring down it. Has not backed up since."
