Store-bought drain cleaners dissolve soap and light grease. They do nothing for root intrusion, grease buildup 40 feet in, or a collapsed pipe segment. Masters Plumbing Service's Drain Cleaning team in Whitewater arrives with professional-grade augers and hydro-jetting units that actually resolve the blockage.

Retail drain products and inexperienced plumbers share one problem: they treat the symptom, not the cause. Our approach combines the right equipment with the right diagnostic process.
Our truck-mounted hydro-jetting units propel water at up to 4,000 PSI through a rotating nozzle that scours pipe walls clean — removing grease buildup, scale, and soft root intrusions in a single pass. Unlike augers, jetting leaves the pipe interior clean rather than just piercing a hole through the clog.
A camera inspection saves you money by showing us exactly what we're dealing with. It also protects you from paying to clear a blockage that's actually hiding a structural pipe failure that will recur immediately.
We clear kitchen drains, bathroom sink and shower drains, floor drains, laundry drains, and main sewer lines. Our equipment scales from a 1/2" kitchen drain line to a 6" commercial main — same certified technician, same professional-grade tools.
We photograph or record camera footage of the drain before and after clearing so you can see exactly what was there and that it's gone. Every job comes with a flat-rate quote before any work begins — no hourly-rate surprises.
From a slow bathroom sink to a full main-line stoppage affecting every fixture in the house, our drain techs in Whitewater, MO have the equipment and training to clear it.
Kitchen drains accumulate FOG — fats, oils, and grease — that solidifies on pipe walls and progressively narrows the line. We use a combination of a cable auger to break the initial plug and a hot-water hydro-jet pass to scour the residual grease film. For commercial kitchens, we also service grease interceptors and document cleaning for inspection records.
Hair and soap scum are the most common bathroom drain blockages. They bond to the pipe walls inside the p-trap and in the drain arm, forming a mat that progressively constricts flow. Our techs remove the drain cover, clear the p-trap obstruction with a hand snake or drum auger, and flush the line.
When multiple fixtures are draining slowly or backing up simultaneously, the blockage is typically in the main sewer line — the 4" or 6" pipe that carries all household waste to the municipal main or septic system. We access the main line through the cleanout, run a CCTV camera to identify the obstruction type, then clear with a sectional cable machine or hydro-jetter depending on what we find.
Floor drain traps can dry out and allow sewer gas into the structure if the drain isn't used regularly. We clear blockages, re-water the trap, and can install a trap primer if the drain is prone to drying in Whitewater's climate.
Restaurants, multi-family buildings, and homes with chronic grease or root problems benefit from scheduled hydro-jet maintenance on a 12–24 month cycle. We map the drain system, document baseline camera footage, jet the lines, and re-scope to confirm clean pipe walls. This approach prevents emergency backups rather than reacting to them.
Sometimes the question isn't just "why is this draining slowly" but "what is the actual condition of this pipe system." We run a recorded CCTV inspection with distance markings and provide a written report noting blockage types, root intrusion points, joint offsets, pipe material, and any visible structural defects.
Here's exactly how a Masters Plumbing Service drain call plays out in Whitewater, MO — from dispatch to documented clear.
Your description lets us load the right equipment before we leave the shop. Main line call vs. single kitchen drain is a different tool setup — knowing ahead saves time on site.
The camera also gives us the distance to the blockage and confirms the pipe diameter — both factors in selecting the right clearing method and nozzle size.
If the camera reveals a structural problem that will require repair rather than just clearing, we tell you that now rather than letting you pay for a clearing that won't last.
After clearing, we run the camera a second time to confirm the pipe is open to full diameter. You see the before-and-after footage. We provide a written service summary and our drain clearing warranty.

My kitchen drain had been running slow for months and completely stopped 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 behind the wall. The jetter cleared it in about 20 minutes. The footage before and after was dramatic — I could actually see the pipe walls go from coated to clean. No recurrence four months later.
Main line backed up completely on a Sunday. Found Masters Plumbing Service and they came within 2 hours. Camera found a 3-inch grease plug combined with roots at a joint. Cleared both with cable and jetter, sent me the scope video via email. Super transparent process.
We own a rental property and schedule annual hydro-jet maintenance with Masters Plumbing Service. The jetting intervals have gotten the drain-related tenant calls down to nearly zero. The camera documentation each year also gives us a clear record of pipe condition over time.
