York Drain Line Cleaning Services
Reliable Line Opening & Drain Cleaning Services in York, Pa
Drain line cleaning is an essential part of your restaurant or business’s waste management plan. While regular maintenance can help prevent most clogs and backups, unexpected items can still end up in your system—and grease buildup is common if your trap isn’t functioning properly. No matter your specific needs, we provide dependable drain line cleaning services in York, PA and the surrounding areas to keep your system flowing smoothly.
High Pressure Jetting, Sewer Cable and Auger Service
If your business or restaurant in York is dealing with a stubborn drain clog or septic backup, John Kline Septic has the tools and experience to clear the line and get your system flowing again. We specialize in drain line cleaning in York, PA, using powerful equipment to break up grease, solids, and debris that simple DIY methods like snaking can't handle.
In cases where the blockage is deep in your main sewer line—or caused by long-term grease buildup—we use high-pressure jetting to perform a full line opening in York, PA. This jetting system includes a hose reel mounted to a truck or trailer that blasts away clogs using concentrated water pressure. It’s one of the most efficient ways to remove blockages and restore flow.
That said, there are situations where jetting isn’t possible—such as when access is limited (e.g., second floors, tight alleys, or lower-level kitchens). In these cases, our technicians use a sewer cable or auger. This motorized cable is ideal for retrieving items (like toys flushed down a toilet) or clearing blockages when additional water pressure isn’t advisable. The tool either dislodges or pulls out the clog to restore your system.
At John Kline Septic, we proudly provide York PA line opening services for restaurants, commercial kitchens, and other businesses throughout the area. We offer frequent service discounts and can often beat your current rates—just ask!
Avoid a future backup with these simple tips:
One of the simplest ways to avoid a main line backup at your restaurant or commercial facility is by ensuring that patrons aren’t flushing inappropriate items in your restrooms. Just as important is staying on top of routine grease trap maintenance—most businesses in York, PA benefit from service every 1 to 3 months, depending on usage. Regular upkeep keeps your system flowing properly and helps prevent costly downtime or emergency calls.
Make sure your food prep and wash sinks are tied into a trap. Regardless of the types of food you prepare, this will help prevent food particles, grease and debris from going down the drain.
Train your staff to dump food waste and grease from pots/pans and dishes into the trash – not down the drain. This will make dish washing easier too!
Ensure your trap is the right size for your business. If your business has grown or your menu has changed but your kitchen has not, make sure your trap can handle the amount of waste you’re producing. If you’re not sure how to check, ask one of our friendly technicians. We’re happy to review your kitchen and your trap to make sure everything is functioning properly.
Make sure your bathrooms have septic-friendly toilet paper and patrons have trashcans available for feminine products, paper towels and other items they may be tempted to flush. Hang a sign as a reminder if necessary.
We offer great rates and even better service.
