A-List Drains: Local Plumbing Company Serving Salem, NH 03079

For Salem residents with well systems or older plumbing, a pump failure or pipe joint leak requires prompt, expert attention to prevent water damage and restore service. A-List Drains responds quickly to diagnose the issue. For leaks, we use video inspection to pinpoint the exact joint. For well pumps, we assess the entire system, from the pump to the pressure tank and electrical components. Our repair or replacement service is thorough, ensuring your home's water supply is reliable and safe, with solutions designed for New England's specific conditions.

A drain camera inspection involves sending a small, waterproof camera on a flexible cable down your pipes. This allows us to see blockages, cracks, root intrusions, or deteriorated joints in real-time on a monitor. We recommend this service for recurring clogs, slow drains that standard cleaning can't fix, before purchasing a home, or if you suspect damage from freezing or shifting soil common in our area. It's a non-invasive way to get an accurate diagnosis, saving you time and money by ensuring we perform only the necessary repair.

Traditional snaking uses a mechanical auger to punch through a clog, which is effective for immediate blockages. Hydro jetting is a more comprehensive cleaning method. It uses high-pressure water streams to scour the entire interior pipe wall, blasting away grease, scale, mineral buildup, and tree roots. While snaking creates a hole through the clog, hydro jetting cleans the full diameter of the pipe, restoring original flow capacity and helping prevent near-future clogs. We recommend hydro jetting for severe, recurring blockages or as preventative maintenance for kitchen lines and main sewer lines.
