Know the signals
Signs you may need drain cleaning
One symptom can be minor. Several together usually point to a larger issue.
- Water draining slower than it used to
- Gurgling sounds from drains or the toilet
- Bad smells coming up from a sink or floor drain
- Water backing up in the tub or shower when you run the washer
- A clog that keeps coming back after DIY fixes
- Multiple slow drains at once (a main-line warning sign)
What Greeley does to its plumbing
Greeley is an irrigation town at heart: founded in 1870 as the Union Colony and sited between the Cache la Poudre and the South Platte for its ditches, it still runs a separate non-potable watering system with 40 pump stations, and its drinking water starts as Rocky Mountain snowmelt treated at a plant the city built in 1907.
The city does not publish a hardness number, so neither do we; what plumbing here actually contends with is cold and ground.
Greeley's adopted code assumes a 30-inch frost depth, a winter design temperature of one degree, and 'severe' weathering, and the Colorado Geological Survey counts the plains' expansive bentonite clays among the most damaging hazards in the state, pipelines included.
Housing skews newer than our other Colorado markets, median build year 1991, though the blocks around downtown and the university date back a century. Permit rules flip at the city line: Berthoud names water heaters outright, Greeley requires permits for plumbing work, and unincorporated Weld County exempts a like-for-like swap.
Right tool, right diagnosis
What we handle
We match the repair to what is actually happening inside the system.

Drain snaking
A motorized cable clears hair, food, and soft clogs. For a single slow drain it is the fastest fix. The machine matters less than the operator: the right cable size and head for the pipe keeps the clog from being pushed deeper or the pipe from being scratched up.
Hydro jetting
High-pressure water scours grease, scale, and roots out of the full pipe diameter. It is the right call for recurring clogs and main lines. We only jet after seeing the pipe's condition, because pressure that cleans a sound pipe can finish off a failing one.
Camera inspection
An HD camera shows what's blocking the line and where, so you never pay for guesswork. It also settles arguments: if a past repair or a landlord dispute hangs on what is actually in the line, the recording is yours.
Main line clearing
From the cleanout to the city tap, whole-house backups get handled the same day. Whole-house backups usually announce themselves at the lowest drain first, often a floor drain or a ground-floor shower.
Straight answers
What moves the price on drain cleaning
Two clogs that look identical from the sink can be very different jobs, so the price follows what we find, not a flat menu.
Where the clog sits
A hair clog a few feet down a bathroom sink is the quickest job we do. A blockage out in the main line takes bigger equipment and more time.
Snaking or jetting
Snaking clears the blockage in the pipe's path. Hydro jetting cleans the whole pipe wall, costs more, and lasts a lot longer on greasy or root-prone lines.
Cleanout access
If your home has an accessible cleanout, we can get straight into the line. Without one, we work through a roof vent or pull a toilet, which adds time. That is also why the drain coupon requires one.
What the camera finds
If the line keeps clogging because it is broken or bellied, clearing it is a patch, not a fix. We will show you the video before talking about anything more.

What Greeley customers say
Recent 5-star Google reviews from this service area.
★★★★★“Eduard came to my house and was the most professional and polite man I could have asked to show up. He diagnosed and fixed my main line clog in about an hour and a half. If I ever need Elite Rooter again I will be asking for Eduard personally.”
★★★★★“What we were hoping was a small project turned into a big one. Edward was very informative and courteous to everyone. Javier helped figure out the issue, and we communicated all weekend about the project to finish the sewer line. Carlos and Lupe were absolutely amazing to work with as well.”

Good questions, direct answers
Frequently asked questions
Do you offer drain cleaning near me in Greeley, CO?
We do. Elite Rooter covers Greeley, CO and the surrounding area from our office at 3400 W 16th St Suite YY, Greeley, CO 80634. Book online or call (970) 368-2901.
Should I snake the drain or hydro jet it?
Snaking clears a single soft blockage; hydro jetting cleans the whole pipe wall and is the right call for grease, roots, and clogs that keep coming back. We recommend the cheaper option when it will actually solve the problem.
Are chemical drain cleaners safe to use?
We don't recommend them. Caustic cleaners can damage pipes, rarely clear the real blockage, and make the line hazardous for whoever works on it next.
Why does my drain keep clogging in the same spot?
Something in the pipe is catching debris: a root, a sag that holds water, a rough joint, or hardened buildup. Snaking clears the symptom each time. A camera look tells you which one it is, and then you can fix it once instead of paying for the same clearing every few months.
Is one slow drain different from several slow drains?
Yes, and it changes the diagnosis. One slow fixture is almost always a local clog. Several fixtures slowing down together, or drains that gurgle when the washer runs, point at the main line, and that is a different job.
