Blocked Shower and Tub Drains in Irvine

Blockages in your main sewer line can affect all the drains in your home and often point to a more serious problem, such as tree root intrusion or pipe collapse. FKM Plumbing uses video camera inspection to accurately locate and diagnose these issues. We follow up with hydro jetting or trenchless repair methods to restore full flow and prevent future backups.
