How We Clear Clogged Drains Without Damaging Your Pipes
Drain clearing removes clogs and blockages that prevent water from flowing through your pipes. Unlike drain cleaning, which scrubs the entire interior pipe surface, drain clearing targets specific obstructions like hair, grease, food waste, or tree roots that cause immediate drainage issues. At Van Rite Plumbing, we use proven tools such as plumbing snakes, augers, and even hydrojetting if necessary to clear your line and restore proper flow fully. We proudly serve Green Bay, Appleton, Kimberly, Neenah, Sheboygan, and surrounding Wisconsin communities with prompt, effective drain clearing services.
Signs You Need Drain Clearing
How to tell you need drain clearing services:
- Water backing up in sinks, tubs, or toilets
- Drains that won’t empty or empty very slowly
- Gurgling sounds or bubbling water
- Frequent use of plungers with little to no effect
A clog doesn’t go away on its own, and store-bought chemicals can cause more harm than good, especially in older pipes. Our expert drain-clearing team will remove the blockage without damaging your plumbing, whether it’s a clogged kitchen sink or a backed-up bathroom drain.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
John GrothDecember 2, 2025 Our home sewer pipe had completely disintegrated and we were getting constant backups into our basement. We opted for a pipe relining rather than a whole floor demo. I was skeptical, but these guys are pros. They were incredibly responsive and professional. The relining was not cheap but compared to a complete remediation it was a money and time saver. They made the best of a crappy situation, were total pros and I 100% trust them. If I could give 6 stars I would. Kathy RetzlaffDecember 1, 2025 We had Vanrite Plumbing come and re-line our pipes. They did an excellent job in a timely fashion, cleaned up well and they’re all very professional. I would extend their services to anybody that I knew. Abby GonzoDecember 1, 2025 Quick and Easy. Got our quote and had the work done very quickly. We were working with the city and the completed all the paperwork in a timely manner so we could get what we needed. Amanda BNovember 18, 2025 Ryan and his team were excellent to work with from start to finish. From the initial contact, communication was clear, professional, and prompt. They explained the process thoroughly and provided a fair and transparent estimate. The work completed demonstrated great attention to detail and was completed exactly as promised. VanRite was reliable, courteous, and highly skilled. Dan SchmidtNovember 10, 2025 My wife and I recently selected VanRite Plumbing Inc. to replace our lead water supply line in Sheboygan. From acquiring an estimate to watching them dig to seeing the last road cones get removed, the experience was positive and efficient. Ryan let us know when work was going to begin, and everything we could expect along the way including when workers would need to access our home to complete the replacement. The team's efficiency amazed us. They arrived promptly in the morning and got down to business. We were impressed by Ryan and his team and their dedication to making sure we had a good experience. We would like to thank everyone involved for their professionalism to ensure we were satisfied at the conclusion. Great teamwork, VanRite! Joanne FolcikMarch 13, 2025 I give this company the highest review as Lee worked me into their busy schedule to line my lateral due to an urgent situation with a water main break outside my house. They were timely, professional, easy to work with and did an amazing job! I would highly recommend them for your plumbing needs and if needed I'd hire them again. Gail ButrymowiczMarch 9, 2025 I had a "nightmare" of a plumbing issue and Lee came over right away and analyzed the situation!! The work was done in a timely fashion and all was explained to me. I had had new siding put on in the Spring and they pressure washed that side of my house and cleaned everything up!!! Great work!! Great crew! John Di SalvoMarch 5, 2025 Hats off to the Van Rite Plumbing professionals! … in less than a day their crew had fresh, full pressure water flowing to our home once again. And when the project threw them curveballs, they hung in there and made it work, and still managed to deliver at the quoted price. That’s plumbing done “Rite”! Jennifer BoudreauMarch 5, 2025 Thank you Van Rite Plumbing for coming in to fix broken septic! The service was exceptional to take care of an emergency situation. Also the staff were professional and polite!
