Drain Cleaning
Cleaning Drains in the Charlotte Area
Food…Grease…Hair… Yeah, it’s safe to say your drains go through a lot on a daily basis. And it’s not just what you see going down the drain—it’s what you don’t see that can cause problems. Over time, residue and debris build up inside your pipes, narrowing the space for water to flow. That’s when you start noticing slow drains, clogs, and even unpleasant smells.
Professional drain cleaning services from Morris-Jenkins make stubborn clogs and slow drains a thing of the past. Our team uses safe, effective methods to clear your pipes and restore the flow, so you don’t have to stress about plumbing problems. Give us a call today for service in the Charlotte, NC area.

When Do You Need Drain Clearing Services?
Most of the time, your drains work just like they should—water flows down quickly, and you don’t notice any bad smells. But over time, soap scum, grease, food particles, and hair can build up inside your pipes, leading to slow drains, odors, and eventually full-blown clogs. If your home has older plumbing, these issues can happen even faster as debris sticks to worn-out pipes.
One of the first signs you might need drain cleaning in Charlotte is a lingering bad smell coming from your sinks, tubs, or showers. Black sludge loves to collect inside pipes, and while DIY tricks like baking soda and vinegar can help for a little while, they don’t get to the root of the problem. That’s where Morris-Jenkins comes in!
If you’re dealing with a stubborn clog, we can clear your drains fast with expert cabling services and hydro-jetting. And if you’re noticing multiple drains backing up at the same time, you might have a mainline clog that needs professional attention. No matter what’s going on with your drains, our team is here ’til midnight every day to help!
Why Have Your Drains Cleaned Professionally?
Prevent Recurring Problems
When you try to clean drains yourself, you might only remove part of the clog, leaving the rest to grow back quickly. Professional cleaning goes deeper, removing all the buildup that causes repeated issues. A thorough professional cleaning lets you enjoy drains that stay clear longer and require less attention.
Protect Your Pipes
Take a second to think about how important your pipes are to your daily life. A little nerve-wracking, right? That’s why we advise against DIY methods that can hurt your pipes, like many store-bought chemicals. Professional drain cleaning uses safe, effective methods that keep your plumbing intact.
Eliminate Odors
Got drains that are causing you to walk around with clothespins on your nose? It’s probably because you’ve got gunk in your drains that you can’t see (but you can definitely smell). Professional drain cleaning removes all that hidden buildup, leaving your drains fresh and odor-free.
Improve Water Flow
Water should always flow down the drain with ease, but clogs cause it to pool in your sink or shower. Suddenly, washing your hands feels like doing dishes, and your shower starts doubling as a bathtub. Having your drains cleaned by the professionals at Morris-Jenkins makes sure that water can once again flow freely down the drain, uninterrupted.

Can’t I Just Clean My Drains Myself?
We’ve been there. Dealing with a clogged drain can leave you searching all over the internet for the most effective DIY remedy. You might try to pour every chemical you can find down the drain, or dig out the old plunger for a trick you once saw in a video. But here’s the thing—these will probably only provide you with a few days (or moments) of relief.
None of these DIY methods address the root of drain problems, meaning clogs are likely to come back—and maybe even worse than before. We always suggest having your professional plumbers take a look at your drains and provide you with a thorough cleaning to make sure the problem is truly resolved.
At Morris-Jenkins, we use professional-grade equipment and techniques to tackle the problem at its source. We’ll clear your drains thoroughly and safely, so you won’t have to worry about recurring issues or hidden damage. It’s the kind of peace of mind no DIY method can match!
