Drain Cleaning in NYC

Slow sinks, gurgling tubs or a kitchen drain that won't go down? Watson's licensed master plumbers clear and clean drains the right way across Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens — and tell you what caused the clog.

What We Do

Clear the clog and keep it clear

A slow drain is usually a warning sign — buildup that's only going to get worse. Watson's clears kitchen, bath, tub and main-line drains thoroughly instead of just poking a hole through the blockage, so the line drains like new. We skip harsh chemicals that damage older NYC pipes and give you an honest, up-front price before any work begins.

Good To Know

Drain cleaning FAQs

What causes most drain clogs?
Hair, grease, soap scum, food scraps and flushed wipes are the usual culprits indoors, while tree roots and pipe buildup cause slower main-line backups. Watson's clears the blockage and tells you what caused it so it's less likely to come back. Call (212) 368-3434.
Are chemical drain cleaners safe to use?
We don't recommend them. Store-bought chemicals can corrode older pipes and rarely clear a stubborn clog completely. A professional clearing is safer and more thorough, and we'll give you an honest up-front price first.
Do you handle main sewer line backups?
Yes. Our licensed master plumbers clear branch drains and main lines across Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens, and can identify recurring issues like roots or grease buildup.
How can I prevent future clogs?
Keep grease, coffee grounds and wipes out of drains, use strainers in sinks and tubs, and run hot water after use. For homes with repeat backups we can recommend a maintenance schedule.
