Drain Cleaning
Professional Drain Cleaning that keeps things flowing
Clogged drains are more than a nuisance. Slow water, bad odors and gurgling pipes are early warnings of bigger problems. We clear the blockage completely and help keep it from coming back.
Common problems we fix
- Slow-draining sinks
- Clogged showers & tubs
- Toilet clogs
- Gurgling or smelly drains
- Kitchen grease buildup
- Floor & utility sink drains
Restore flow quickly — and protect your pipes
Whether it's a stubborn kitchen sink clog, a slow shower or a blocked toilet, our team has the equipment and experience to handle it. We use professional-grade tools to clear away grease, hair, soap scum and debris — not just poke a hole through the clog.
Regular drain cleaning restores normal flow, prevents future backups and reduces wear on your plumbing, saving you time, stress and money in the long run.
Why not just use drain cleaner?
Store-bought chemical cleaners can damage pipes and rarely remove the whole blockage, so the clog comes right back. A professional cleaning removes the buildup along the pipe walls and lets us spot problems like damaged or sagging lines early.

“I recently contacted Bobby at Lighthouse Plumbing & Repairs. He happened to be working nearby and was able to see the repairs I needed same day…. Agreed to a 9am appt time days later (arrived early), installed a new 50 gallon gas water heater (attic) and addressed some minor issues ✔️ (Cream carpet everywhere….spotless)!! Very experienced and fair! Highly recommend”
“We have used Bobby with Lighthouse Plumbing and Repair two times within the last few months. This company is the absolute best. He is responsive and has taken care of our issues within 24 hours of me calling. He is very knowledgeable and shared with us how to avoid issues in the future. I highly recommend Bobby and Lighthouse Plumbing and Repair!”
“Needed a couple toilets replaced in our new home. Mr. Black was extremely easy to communicate with, knowledgeable, professional and showed up right when he said he would. Pricing is extremely fair (in fact, he beat out other quotes we received by hundreds of dollars). He has our business going forward for all our plumbing needs, highly recommend.”
“Called numerous plumbers and no one could get here to fix a drain line under my house. I called Bobby one time, he showed up the next day on time, fixed the drain line, found the cause of the problem and told me what I could do to prevent it from happening again. Affordable, friendly, professional and punctual. 5 stars man, thank you.”
“I called Bobby about a leak in one of our drain lines. He came the very next morning, found the problem, explained it, and fixed it in no time. He was very courteous, knowledgeable, and fair in his pricing. I had a much better experience with Bobby than with some other companies who have come out in the past. Highly recommend.”
“If there was an Olympic sport for diagnosing and replacing a garbage disposal, Bobby would have won 1st place. The whole thing, from knock on door to sign off invoice, took less than 25 minutes.”
“Had an impossible clog in the kitchen sink. Bobby got it done in less than 30 min. Great service and affordable price. Thanks!”

“We had a busted copper pipe in our backyard. I called multiple places and none of them could come same day. I called Bobby and he was here within an hour. He was kind, funny, professional, and affordable. We will definitely call him again if needed. Top notch service!”
“Another plumber had done a horrible job “fixing” the toilet in our rental and it was still leaking after 2 visits. I called Bobby and he was able to quickly correct the problem. He completely exchanged the insides of the toilet in the same time it took the other plumber to talk about it. Bobby is the only plumber we will use.”
“We highly recommend Lighthouse Plumbing and Repairs! Our hot water heater was leaking over the weekend and our home warranty company connected us with Bobby. He was able to get to us first thing Monday morning and replaced our tank by Tuesday afternoon! Fast, reliable and professional!”
“It was really cold today here in Charleston, SC around 18 degrees w/o wind chill. My outside tankless water heater froze up. Bobby came out and thawed the pipes within 15 mins, his service was great and genuinely a nice person as well. I would recommend him for work again if needed.”
“Bobby you are amazing!!! Thanks so much for fixing my momma's pipes so quickly! I definitely recommend them, not only was he less $ than the other ppl I called but he was out here and done repairing the pipe within 21 minutes from the time I called!”
“Very fast, very knowledgeable and very nice guy. Thank you so much for fixing our main water line in the rain. Will definitely recommend and the only one we will call from now on!!!”

Questions? We've got answers.
How often should drains be professionally cleaned?
For most homes, every 1–2 years keeps lines healthy. Kitchens with heavy use or older homes may benefit from more frequent cleaning.
My drain keeps clogging. What's wrong?
Repeat clogs usually mean buildup deeper in the line, a venting issue or a damaged pipe. We'll diagnose the root cause and recommend the right fix — sometimes that's drain repair rather than cleaning.
Can you clear a clog the same day?
In most cases, yes. Call (843) 509-4029 and we'll get you on the schedule as quickly as possible.
