DRAIN CLEANING
Fast Clearing. Long-Term Prevention. Clean, Reliable Flow for your Property!
Clogged drains don’t just slow you down—they disrupt homes, frustrate tenants, impact businesses, and can cause major plumbing failures if ignored. At Troy Plumbing & Repairs, we provide professional, high-powered drain cleaning services designed to clear blockages quickly and prevent them from coming back.
We handle everything from simple sink clogs to full-scale main line backups that affect entire buildings.

These are early warning signs—fast action prevents bigger emergencies.
