My furnace shut down and we were without heat on holiday weekend, and heartland came and fixed it within 10 minutes of calling I couldn’t believe how fast and thorough they were. He knew exactly what was wrong with it almost immediately. I have never had such great and quick service before. He really saved us from a bad situation, our pipes could’ve froze and he did it all on family day weekend. Ive found this company, just through word of mouth and everyone I spoke with has said he’s the best in town. Great prices too, you won’t be able to find better in the city. Thank you so much 🙏🙏

I needed help setting up my washer and dryer after the company I had bought them from did not hook them up for me. I called heartland plumbing and heating. They came to my rescue even when it was before a long weekend. They did good work for a reasonable price. They even gave me good advice on some future work I want to get done. I recommend this company and would use them again

Can’t say enough about the customer service. We like to support smaller, local businesses whenever possible and chose to go with Heartland because of the excellent customer reviews and their A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. We were not disappointed. When Jaxon promises he’ll get the job done that day, you can count on it. We really appreciated the fact that Jaxon followed up with us to ensure our furnace was running well a couple days later. This company really does do it the same day, the right way.

Edmonton Drain Cleaning – Red Seal Certified Plumbers

owner of heartland plumbing and heating ltd by his work truck, red seal badge and 100% satisfaction guarantee badge

One team for the job

Some drain cleaning companies show up with a snake, clear the immediate clog, and leave. That works until the drain backs up again two weeks later because nobody addressed the actual problem. Heartland takes a different approach. Our owner, Jaxon, is a Journeyperson Plumber with an Interprovincial Red Seal certification and a BSc in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Alberta. He understands drainage systems as engineered systems with slope requirements, venting needs, and failure points that have root causes, not just symptoms.

You’re not dealing with a franchise

When we clear your drain, we also assess why it clogged in the first place. Is it a grease buildup issue in the kitchen line? Tree root intrusion in the main sewer? A bellied pipe that collects debris? Knowing the cause lets us recommend the right long-term fix, whether that’s a simple maintenance schedule or a more involved drain repair.

Our Drain Cleaning Services

Heartland handles the full range of residential plumbing work in Edmonton:

Kitchen drain cleaning

Grease, soap, and food debris build up in kitchen drain lines over time, eventually causing slow drainage or full blockages. We clear the line and advise on how to prevent the buildup from returning.

Bathroom drain cleaning

Hair, soap scum, and mineral deposits are the usual culprits in shower, bathtub, and sink drains. We clear the clog and check the trap and drain line for any developing issues.

Main sewer line cleaning

When multiple fixtures back up at once or you see water coming up from a floor drain the blockage is in your main sewer line. This is a more serious job that requires professional equipment. We clear the line and assess its condition.

Sewer backup response

A sewer backup is an emergency. Raw sewage in your basement is a health hazard and a property damage risk. We respond quickly to clear the blockage and restore flow. If the cause is a structural issue in the line, we’ll explain your repair options.

Drain repair and replacement

Cracked, collapsed, or bellied drain pipes need more than cleaning they need repair or replacement. We excavate and replace damaged sections of drain pipe, or recommend trenchless options where the situation allows.

Floor drain maintenance

Basement floor drains can dry out, allowing sewer gas into your home, or clog with sediment over time. We clean and service floor drains to keep them functional and odour-free.

Signs You Need Drain Cleaning

Not sure whether to call a drain unclog specialist or try to handle it yourself? Here are some clear signals that it’s time to bring in a professional:

Water drains slowly from a sink, tub, or shower. A slow drain is a partial clog. It will only get worse. The sooner you address it, the simpler the fix.

Multiple fixtures are backing up at the same time. When more than one drain is affected especially on the lowest level of your home — the blockage is likely in your main sewer line. This isn’t something a plunger will fix.

You hear gurgling sounds from drains or toilets. Gurgling means air is being displaced in the drain system, which usually indicates a partial blockage or a venting issue. Either way, it’s a sign that something isn’t flowing the way it should.

There’s a foul odour coming from a drain. Persistent sewer smell from a drain could mean a dried-out trap, a blocked vent stack, or organic buildup in the line. We identify the source and fix it.

Water is pooling around a floor drain or backing up into a basement. This is urgent. Sewer water in your living space is a health concern, and the longer it sits, the more damage it does. Call us immediately.

EDMONTON DRAIN CLEANING FAQ

Find answers to commonly asked questions about our products and services.

Can I use chemical drain cleaners instead of calling a plumber?

We don’t recommend it. Chemical drain cleaners can temporarily dissolve a clog, but they also corrode your pipes over time especially older metal pipes common in many Edmonton homes. They don’t address the root cause of the clog, and repeated use can create bigger plumbing problems down the road. A professional clearing is more effective and safer for your drain system.

How can I prevent drain clogs?

A few simple habits go a long way. Avoid pouring grease or cooking oil down the kitchen drain let it cool and dispose of it in the garbage. Use drain screens in showers and tubs to catch hair. Don’t flush anything other than toilet paper. And consider scheduling a preventive drain cleaning every one to two years, especially if your home has older pipes or mature trees near the sewer line.

What causes main sewer line backups in Edmonton?

The most common causes are tree root intrusion, sediment buildup, and pipe deterioration due to age. Edmonton has many homes with clay or concrete sewer pipes that are decades old and prone to cracking and root penetration. Shifting soil conditions especially with freeze-thaw cycles can also cause pipes to settle and develop bellies where debris collects.

Do you offer camera inspections for drain lines?

Yes. When we suspect a structural issue like root intrusion, a collapsed pipe, or a bellied section a camera inspection lets us see exactly what’s happening inside the line without digging. This helps us recommend the most accurate and cost-effective repair.

How much does drain cleaning cost in Edmonton?

Cost depends on the location and severity of the clog. A straightforward sink or tub drain clearing is a quick, affordable job. A main sewer line blockage that requires specialized equipment costs more, especially if the line needs to be accessed from a cleanout or the problem turns out to be structural.

For drain repairs involving excavation or pipe replacement, we provide a detailed quote after assessing the damage.

At Heartland Plumbing and Heating, we’ll always explain what we’ve found, what the options are, and what each option costs before we start any work.
