Prevent Blockages Before They Start: Montreal’s Guide to Drain Cleaning, Hydro‑Jetting & Camera Inspections

Slow, gurgling or recurring backups are more than an annoyance — they’re an early warning that your drains need professional attention. At Drain Puissant, we help Montreal homeowners and businesses stop small problems from becoming disruptive, expensive emergencies by using targeted drain cleaning, advanced hydro-jetting, and precise drain camera inspection.

Why proactive drain care matters

Routine maintenance keeps water flowing, prevents foul odors, and reduces the chance of messy backups. Ignoring early signs like slow drainage or repeated minor clogs often leads to larger blockages that take longer to clear. With regular drain cleaning and occasional drain camera inspection, you can extend the life of your pipes and avoid emergency service calls.

What to expect from modern cleaning techniques

Drain Puissant uses a combination of methods to match the issue at hand. Our technicians assess the situation and recommend the most effective option — from light cleaning to full-line clearing:

Drain camera inspection — A compact high-resolution camera travels through the line to locate buildups, intrusions, and breaks. Knowing the exact problem avoids guesswork and prevents unnecessary work.
Hydro-jetting — High-pressure water removes grease, scale, roots, and mineral buildup. Hydro-jetting provides thorough cleaning that restores full flow and helps delays return of clogs.
Routine drain cleaning — Preventive cleaning removes hair, soap scum, food residue, and other everyday debris that accumulate over time.

When to call for emergency drain cleaning

Some problems need immediate attention. Call for emergency drain cleaning if you notice:

Water backing up into sinks, bathtubs, showers, or toilets despite repeated attempts to clear it.
Strong sewage or rotten-egg odors coming from drains.
Multiple fixtures backing up at once (kitchen and bathroom drains failing concurrently).

Our emergency response focuses on rapid diagnosis with a drain camera inspection and fast clearing — often with hydro-jetting — to restore flow and minimize damage.

Simple steps homeowners can take today

You don’t need to wait for an emergency. These low-effort habits reduce clogs between professional visits:

Use hair traps in bathroom drains and clean them weekly.
Avoid pouring grease, coffee grounds, and fibrous foods down the kitchen drain.
Run hot water for 30 seconds after dishwasher or washing machine cycles to help flush residue.
Schedule a drain camera inspection if you have recurring slow drains — early diagnosis saves time and money.
