A slow drain is a warning. By the time it's a complete blockage, you've lost use of your kitchen, bathroom, or laundry room entirely. Masters Plumbing Service's Rio Hondo drain crew uses professional-grade augers, hydro-jetters, and CCTV cameras to resolve blockages at their source.

Every drain call we run in Rio Hondo, TX starts with understanding the blockage before selecting the method. Here's what that difference looks like.
CCTV inspection before clearing saves money: we don't jet a line that has a structural failure the jetting won't fix, and we don't snake a line when the blockage requires a jetter to actually clear pipe walls.
Our truck-mounted jetting units propel water at up to 4,000 PSI through a rotating nozzle that scours pipe walls clean β removing grease buildup, scale, and soft root intrusions that a cable auger simply punches through and leaves.
Whether it's one slow bathroom sink or a full house main-line stoppage, the right equipment is on our truck and the licensed tech dispatched in Rio Hondo knows which to use.
Every drain call includes a written service report noting blockage type, location, method used, and any structural observations from the camera run. You know the state of your drain system β not just that the water is flowing again.
Not every blocked drain is the same problem. Here's how our team approaches each type β with the specific tools and techniques that actually resolve it.
Kitchen drains accumulate FOG β fats, oils, and grease β that solidifies on pipe walls and progressively narrows the line over months and years. We use a combination of a cable auger to break the initial plug and a hot-water hydro-jet pass to scour residual grease film from the pipe walls. For commercial kitchens we also service grease interceptors and document the cleaning for health code records.

Hair and soap scum bond to pipe walls inside the p-trap and drain arm, forming a mat that progressively constricts flow until drainage stops entirely. Our techs remove the drain cover, clear the p-trap obstruction with a hand snake or drum auger, and flush the line to confirm full flow.
When multiple fixtures drain slowly or back up simultaneously, the blockage is in the main sewer line β the 4β6 inch pipe carrying all household waste to the municipal main or septic system. We access through the cleanout, run a CCTV camera to identify blockage type, then clear with a sectional cable machine or hydro-jetter depending on findings.
Basement floor drains and laundry room drains often go years without service and develop sediment, lint, and mineral scale blockages. We clear with an electric snake and flush thoroughly. Floor drain traps can also dry out and allow sewer gas into the structure β we re-water the trap and can install a trap primer if the drain is prone to drying in Rio Hondo's climate.
A documented preventive cleaning program creates a camera record of pipe condition over time β useful for catching structural deterioration before it causes an emergency and for insurance or real estate disclosure purposes.
Pre-purchase sewer scope reports in Rio Hondo are accepted by real estate attorneys, buyers' agents, and home inspectors as documented evidence of drain system condition.

Called about a kitchen drain three other plumbers had snaked without lasting results. Masters Plumbing Service ran a camera first and found grease buildup 28 feet in β past where any hand snake reaches. Hydro-jetted it, re-scoped to confirm clean, and the drain has run perfectly ever since.
