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 Los Olivos drain crew uses professional-grade augers, hydro-jetters, and CCTV cameras to resolve blockages at their source.

Retail drain products treat symptoms. Our approach identifies what type of blockage you're dealing with โ because the method that clears a grease plug efficiently is different from the one that handles root intrusion.
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.
Hydro-jetting is the only method that restores full pipe diameter. A cable clears the blockage; a jetter removes the material that caused the blockage from the pipe wall entirely.
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 Los Olivos knows which to use.
Before-and-after camera footage is available for main line work. Insurance claims and real estate disclosures often require this documentation โ we provide it as a standard part of camera-scope jobs.
Not every blocked drain is the same problem. Here's how our team approaches each type โ with the specific tools and techniques that actually resolve it.
Grease blockages typically form 10โ40 feet from the drain opening, past the p-trap, where the pipe cools and FOG re-solidifies. Our jetting equipment reaches and clears these deposits where a plunger or retail product simply cannot.

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 โ the 4โ6 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.
Utility room floor drain blockages sometimes indicate a slow-developing main line issue rather than a localized clog. Our camera scope after clearing confirms whether the blockage was isolated or a sign of downstream restriction.
A documented preventive cleaning program creates a camera record of pipe condition over time โ useful for catching structural deterioration before it causes an emergency and for insurance or real estate disclosure purposes.
A standalone camera inspection documents drain system condition for pre-purchase due diligence, insurance claims, or understanding why a drain is performing poorly before committing to a repair approach. We run the camera, record footage with distance markers, and provide a written scope report noting blockage types, root intrusion points, joint offsets, and any visible structural defects.

My kitchen drain had been running slow for months and stopped entirely the night before Thanksgiving. Masters Plumbing Service had a tech out same morning, ran the camera, and found a 15-foot grease accumulation in the drain arm past the wall. The jetter cleared it in 20 minutes. The before-and-after footage was remarkable โ I could see the pipe walls go from coated to clean. No recurrence four months later.
Main line backed up on a Sunday. Masters Plumbing Service came within 2 hours, camera found a 3-inch grease plug combined with roots at a joint, cleared both with cable and jetter, and sent me the scope video. Exactly the transparency I wanted.
Pre-purchase sewer scope on a home we were buying. Tech ran every drain and the main with the camera and provided a written report with timestamps. Found a small bellied section in the main line โ the seller agreed to repair before closing. Saved us thousands.
