A clear, professional approach to drain cleaning — tailored to your Ivy City property.
Our Ivy City plumber inspects the clogged drain — checking the cleanout access, running a camera for main line blockages, or assessing the drain type and flow to determine whether snaking or hydro-jetting is the appropriate approach.
Magnet Plumbing clears clogged drains in Ivy City, DC using professional hydro-jetting or mechanical snaking selected for the specific blockage. Hydro-jetting removes grease, scale, and roots from the full pipe interior — not just punching a hole through the clog.
After clearing, we run water through the drain to verify full flow is restored and confirm no secondary blockages are present further down the line.
Our Ivy City plumber explains what caused the blockage and recommends specific prevention measures — whether that is a grease trap for the kitchen, a hair catcher for the bathroom, or annual hydro-jetting for the main sewer line.

Most Ivy City homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years as preventive maintenance. Kitchen drains in households that cook frequently may need annual service. Homes with large trees near the sewer line should have the main line inspected and cleared annually to prevent root buildup from causing backups.
Drain cleaning in Ivy City typically costs $150 to $350 for standard drain snaking and $300 to $600 for hydro-jetting depending on the line size and length. Main sewer line cleaning costs more than individual fixture drains. Magnet Plumbing provides transparent pricing before starting any drain cleaning work in Ivy City.
Drain snaking uses a rotating cable to break through or pull out blockages. It is effective for hair clogs and localized obstructions but leaves residue on pipe walls. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the full pipe interior, removing grease, scale, and root intrusion completely. For main sewer lines and recurring clogs, hydro-jetting provides more thorough and longer-lasting results.
Magnet Plumbing offers same-day drain cleaning service in Ivy City for most clogged drain situations. Emergency drain cleaning — particularly for backed-up main sewer lines — is available 24/7. Most drain clearing jobs in Ivy City are completed in 1 to 2 hours from arrival, with the line fully flowing before our plumber leaves.
Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"Saul and his team showed up on time and worked quickly to resolve our issue. They were able to quickly replace the old water heater with a new unit. They left the area cleaner than it was originally. We finally have hot water again! Pricing was fair, service was exceptional."
"Fixed a hidden leak behind the drywall without tearing apart the whole wall. Impressed with how precise they were and how quickly they found it."
"We noticed our water bill doubling month over month and could not find anything visible. These guys came out with the leak detection equipment and located a slab leak under the living room in about thirty minutes. The repair was minimally invasive — small access cut, patched afterward, and the bill is back to normal. Really impressed with the professionalism."
