Sewer & Drain
Cleaning Nairobi

Our drain cleaning starts from KES 8,500 for a residential single-drain basic service using mechanical tools. Full residential hydro jetting (up to 50 m) starts from KES 18,500. Commercial sewer line cleaning and grease trap services start from KES 35,000. All pricing is flat-rate – agreed upfront with no hidden charges or call-out fees. Evening and public holiday services carry a slightly higher rate.

Hydro jetting uses water pressurised up to 4,000 PSI to blast through and flush out blockages – grease, scale, roots, and debris – while simultaneously scouring the entire pipe wall clean. A mechanical snake only breaks a hole through a blockage and leaves build-up on the pipe walls, which means the drain blocks up again faster. Hydro jetting delivers a thorough, long-lasting clean that typically holds 12 to 24 months compared to a few weeks for snaking alone.

The clearest signs of a main sewer line blockage are: multiple fixtures draining slowly at the same time (kitchen and bathrooms all slow), gurgling sounds from toilets or floor drains, sewage or waste backing up into the lowest fixtures in the building (like ground-floor toilets or shower trays), and persistent foul odours from drains. If only one fixture is slow, the blockage is likely local to that drain. If several are slow simultaneously, the main sewer line is affected.

Yes, when done correctly. Our technicians assess pipe material and condition before selecting the cleaning method. We adjust hydro jetting pressure appropriately for PVC, clay, cast iron, and concrete pipes. For older or fragile pipes, we use lower pressure settings or a mechanical rooter instead. We may use a CCTV camera to check pipe integrity first on systems that have shown signs of structural damage. Store-bought chemical cleaners, by contrast, can corrode pipes – professional cleaning avoids this risk.

Most residential drain cleaning jobs – including a single blocked drain or a basic sewer clean – are completed within 30 to 90 minutes. Full residential system hydro jetting typically takes 1 to 2 hours. Commercial grease trap and main sewer line services take 2 to 4 hours depending on system size. You can use the property normally while we work, and we clean up fully before leaving.

Yes. We operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and public holidays. Emergency drain unblocking teams are pre-positioned across Nairobi with an average dispatch time of under 30 minutes. Call or WhatsApp +254 746 088 030 at any time for immediate response. Our evening rate applies between 6 PM and 6 AM – all pricing is confirmed upfront before work begins.

For residential properties without recurring issues, a professional hydro-jet clean every 2 to 3 years is recommended as preventative maintenance. Properties with large trees nearby (root risk) or older pipework benefit from annual inspections. Commercial kitchens and restaurants should have grease traps professionally cleaned every 1 to 3 months, and main kitchen drain lines jetted every 6 to 12 months. We offer discounted maintenance contracts for commercial clients.

We accept cash, M-Pesa mobile money transfers, and bank wire transfers. Corporate and commercial clients can request invoice payment terms with prior approval. All completed services are documented with tax-compliant receipts and written service reports. We never request payment before work is completed and you are satisfied.
