Drain Cleaning in Redlands, CA

When water stops going down, you want it fixed today, not next week. We handle drain cleaning in Redlands, from a single slow sink to a main line that is backing up into the house. Redlands is east on the I-10 from our Rialto shop, usually within half an hour.

Calls go to a real local plumbing company, not a national call center. Drain Edge Rooter works out of Rialto, is licensed under CA C-36 #1078977, and has 139 Google reviews. We pick up 24/7 at (909) 927-3194.

How we handle drain cleaning in Redlands

  • Augering toilets and the closet bend when a clog will not plunge out
  • Opening main sewer lines from the cleanout when several fixtures back up at once
  • A camera look at the line when clogs keep coming back
  • Checking for the pipe types we expect in Redlands’s mix of housing (victorian and early 1900s homes, mid-century neighborhoods, and newer tracts on the north and east sides)

Common signs of trouble

  • Clogs that come back within a few weeks of being cleared
  • Wet spots or overflow around the outdoor cleanout
  • Gurgling from a toilet or drain when another fixture runs
  • Any of the above in a Redlands home that has not had its plumbing checked in years

Not sure if it can wait? Call (909) 927-3194 and we will tell you honestly.

Notes from our Redlands jobs

Redlands has some of the oldest housing in our whole service area. The historic districts around downtown, State Street, Smiley Park and the University of Redlands include Victorian and early 1900s homes, and the plumbing in those houses has often been changed piece by piece over a hundred years.

In newer Redlands homes the problem is usually what went down the drain, while in older homes the pipe itself is often part of the story. Redlands water comes from a combination of local groundwater and Santa Ana River and Mill Creek surface water, and it is moderately hard, which shows up as scale in heaters and on fixture parts over time.

Areas of Redlands we serve

South of the 10, near Kimberly Crest and Prospect Park, the streets rise into the hills on larger lots, while North Redlands and the Crafton side have more mid-century and newer tract homes. In older Redlands homes it is common to find a mix of materials on the same property, and that is something we plan around before we start work.

  • the historic neighborhoods around downtown and State Street
  • streets near the University of Redlands
  • the area around Smiley Park, the Smiley Library and the Redlands Bowl
  • South Redlands and the hills near Kimberly Crest and Prospect Park
  • North Redlands along San Bernardino Avenue
  • Crafton and the Mentone side of town

Working in Redlands

We reach Redlands by heading east on the 10, getting off at Alabama Street, Tennessee Street, Orange Street or Ford Street depending on the neighborhood. For the Mentone and Crafton side, we stay on the 10 or use Lugonia Avenue.

The historic homes around Smiley Park and the University of Redlands often have original features that owners want to keep. When we work on plumbing in those houses, we try to do it through basements, crawl spaces and closets so the original finishes stay intact.

Redlands has many established trees, including old citrus and palms, along streets like Olive Avenue, Cajon Street and Citrus Avenue. Roots are a major cause of sewer problems in the older parts of town, and we often recommend a camera inspection before deciding on a repair.

Drain Cleaning FAQ for Redlands

Should I use chemical drain cleaner first?

We do not recommend it. Chemical cleaners seldom clear the full blockage, can damage older pipes and seals, and make the work more hazardous once a plumber opens the line.

Do you clear drains at night or on weekends?

Yes. We are open 24 hours a day, every day. Call (909) 927-3194 when the problem happens.

Will I know the cost before you start?

Yes. We look at the problem, explain what the job needs and go over the price before any work begins.

What should I avoid putting down the drain?

Grease, wipes, paper towels, coffee grounds and large amounts of food scraps cause most of the household clogs we clear.

Do you serve all of Redlands?

Yes. Redlands is east on the I-10 from our Rialto shop, usually within half an hour, and we cover the historic neighborhoods around downtown and State Street, South Redlands and the hills near Kimberly Crest and Prospect Park, Crafton and the Mentone side of town and the rest of the city, 24 hours a day.
