Our Flint plumber inspects the clogged drain — checking the cleanout access, running a camera for main line blockages, or assessing the drain type and flow to determine whether snaking or hydro-jetting is the appropriate approach.
We clear the blockage using the appropriate method — a drain snake for localized clogs, or high-pressure hydro-jetting for grease buildup, scale, or root intrusion in main lines.
Phoenician Plumbing verifies that all drains are flowing freely at your Flint, MI property after clearing — running extended flow tests and checking downstream connections to confirm the blockage is completely eliminated.
Our Flint plumber explains what caused the blockage and recommends specific prevention measures — whether that is a grease trap for the kitchen, a hair catcher for the bathroom, or annual hydro-jetting for the main sewer line.

Most Flint homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years as preventive maintenance. Kitchen drains in households that cook frequently may need annual service. Homes with large trees near the sewer line should have the main line inspected and cleared annually to prevent root buildup from causing backups.
Chemical drain cleaners are generally not recommended for Flint homes with older plumbing. The caustic chemicals can accelerate corrosion in metal pipes and degrade older PVC joints over time. They also rarely clear blockages completely and can make the problem worse by causing debris to compact. Professional drain cleaning by Phoenician Plumbing is safer and more effective.
Yes. Tree roots are one of the most common causes of sewer line problems in Flint neighborhoods with mature trees. Roots enter through small cracks or joints in older sewer lines and grow inside the pipe, eventually causing recurring blockages, complete blockages, or pipe collapse. Annual hydro-jetting and a root treatment can control root growth and extend line life.
