What to Expect
A slow or recurring clog usually means more than a simple blockage. R N T Plumbing and Heating uses professional drain cleaning — including hydro-jetting and camera inspection — to clear the line completely and find the real cause.
Instead of pouring harsh chemicals that damage your pipes, we identify whether it's grease buildup, tree roots, or a collapsed section, and recommend a permanent fix. We serve homeowners across Calgary and surrounding communities.
Calgary's older neighbourhoods — with mature trees and aging clay or cast-iron sewer lines — are especially prone to root intrusion and buildup. We use a camera to see exactly what's happening inside your pipes before we recommend a fix, so you're not paying for guesses.
For recurring clogs, hydro-jetting scours the entire pipe wall clean rather than just punching a hole through the blockage. We inspect first to confirm your pipes are sound, then jet the line and verify the result on camera — leaving you with a truly clean drain.
Thorough drain cleaning to keep your plumbing flowing freely.

How Our Process Works
Inspect with Camera
We run a camera to locate the clog and identify the cause — roots, grease, or damage.
Clear the Line
We use the right method — snaking or hydro-jetting — based on what we find.
Verify the Result
We confirm the line is clear and flowing properly.
Prevention Advice
We explain what caused it and how to prevent a repeat.
What Shapes the Price
Every home and job is different. These are the main factors that shape the final price — and we always give you upfront pricing before any work begins.
- Location and severity of the clog
- Method required (snaking vs. hydro-jetting vs. camera)
- Accessibility of the cleanout and line
- Whether it's an emergency or scheduled service
Keeping Things Running Smoothly
- Avoid pouring grease down kitchen drains
- Use drain strainers to catch hair and debris
- Run hot water after heavy use to keep lines clear
- Schedule a camera inspection if clogs keep returning

"I manage several properties in Calgary. I have used several different plumbing companies over the years and by far R N T Plumbing has been the best Most recently another company came in because 3 out of 4 sinks had no water. They said all 3 faucets had to be replaced. I decided to get a second opinion from R N T and sure enough no need for replacement, just a part. Saved me over $2000. Such a great team, friendly, very responsive and they want to help, not just make money. Thank you R N T."

"Bobby showed up on time and inspected my hot water heater. I thought I was going to need a replacement that was going to cost me thousands of dollars, and he ended up saving that for me! He also installed a set of shower taps and had to run some new lines. He was professional and courteous and when I need his help again, I know he will be there, on time, professional and clean up after himself."

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does drain cleaning cost?
Cost depends on the location and severity of the clog. We provide upfront pricing before we start any work.
Is hydro-jetting safe for my pipes?
Yes. Hydro-jetting is safe for properly maintained pipes and cleans the interior far more thoroughly than a cable alone.
Why do my drains keep clogging?
Recurring clogs often point to grease buildup, tree roots, or a damaged line. A camera inspection finds the root cause so it can be fixed permanently.
Do you offer emergency drain cleaning?
Yes. Backed-up drains can cause real damage, so we offer priority and emergency drain service across Calgary.
