Quick answer

Midtown Plumbing provides same-day drain cleaning throughout Aurora, available 7 days a week from 7 AM to 9 PM at the same flat rate — no overtime charge on evenings, weekends, or holidays. Every job includes a camera inspection before quoting and a written price before work begins.

Aurora's housing spans from the heritage streetscapes of Old Aurora — homes and commercial buildings dating to the 1800s along Yonge Street — to the large 1990s and 2000s subdivisions in Aurora Heights, Bayview Wellington, and the northeast quadrant near Leslie Street. Drain infrastructure varies just as much: century-old clay and cast iron lines under the historic core, galvanized and early cast iron in the mid-20th-century bungalow streets, and newer ABS systems in the subdivisions. Whatever the era, we camera the line first, quote in writing, and charge the same rate regardless of the day or time you call. Call 647-778-9411 — most Aurora calls are on-site within 3–5 hours.

What Drain Cleaning Actually Involves

Professional drain cleaning physically removes the blockage — not just temporarily softens it. We use electric augers for solid blockages and hydro-jetting for grease, scale, and root masses that snaking won't fully clear. Every job starts with a camera inspection so you see what's in the line before we quote anything.

In Aurora, common drain problems include tree root intrusion in main sewer lines across the older and mid-era neighbourhoods, grease buildup in kitchen drains, and cast iron corrosion in the original village core and surrounding 1940s–60s housing. Aurora's older heritage streets often have clay pipe sections in the main line — these require careful assessment before high-pressure jetting is used. Camera-first is how we protect your pipe and ensure the right clearing method is applied.

Warning Signs

Signs You Need Drain Cleaning in Aurora

Slow or gurgling drains

Water draining slowly or gurgling sounds from nearby fixtures when a drain is running — both signal a partial blockage building in the line.

Multiple drains backing up at once

When more than one drain is slow or backed up simultaneously, the blockage is in the main sewer line — not in individual fixture traps.

Sewage smell in the house

A persistent sewage smell — especially from floor drains or lower fixtures — indicates a blockage or dried trap letting sewer gas into the home.

Water backing up into other fixtures

Flushing the toilet and seeing water rise in the shower, or running the dishwasher and watching the kitchen sink back up — main sewer line warning signs.

Drains that clog repeatedly

A drain that blocks every few weeks despite clearing usually means root intrusion, scale accumulation, or a damaged pipe section — camera diagnosis required.

Basement floor drain backing up

The basement floor drain is the lowest point in the system. When it backs up, the entire main line is blocked. Call immediately — shut off water to the house.

My kitchen faucet stopped working suddenly and I called Andrew. He arrived the same day (Sunday!), quickly diagnosed the issue and explained everything clearly. He recommended replacement parts thoughtfully, helped me choose a new faucet and completed the work efficiently. His pricing was very fair, especially for a weekend visit. Excellent service, professional and reliable. Highly recommend!

Aurora Drain Problems — What We See Every Week

Old Aurora — the heritage streets along Yonge Street, Victoria Street, and Temperance Street in the original downtown core — has some of the oldest residential and commercial drain infrastructure in York Region. Properties in this area often have clay or early cast iron drain lines dating to the late 1800s or early 1900s. Many of these lines are still in service and functioning, but decades of root intrusion at clay pipe joints and internal corrosion in cast iron sections mean they can block suddenly and severely. We assess these lines carefully on camera before recommending a clearing method — clay pipe that appears to be holding can have significant joint separation that makes aggressive jetting damaging rather than helpful.

Aurora's post-war bungalow streets — the residential areas between Yonge and Bayview, and the lots developed through the 1950s and 60s along Henderson Drive and Aurora Heights Drive — have galvanized steel supply lines that are now well past their expected service life, and cast iron drain lines of similar age. Galvanized supply corrodes internally and deposits rust debris that can contribute to drain problems downstream. Main sewer lines in these streets run under lawns with 50 to 60-year-old trees — root intrusion is the leading cause of main line blockages in this era of Aurora housing.

Aurora's newer subdivisions — Bayview Wellington, the Leslie Street corridor, and developments east of Hwy 404 — were built from the 1990s through the 2010s with copper supply and ABS drain lines. These properties are generally in good shape, but main sewer lines in areas developed 20 to 30 years ago are beginning to show the first signs of root intrusion. Call 647-778-9411 any day of the week — the rate is the same Monday through Sunday.

Common Questions

Drain Cleaning Aurora FAQ

Do you charge overtime for evening or weekend drain cleaning in Aurora?
No. Midtown Plumbing charges the same flat rate Monday through Sunday, 7 AM to 9 PM — no overtime premium, no evening surcharge, no weekend or holiday rate. The price reflects the work required, not the day or time you call.
Do you include camera inspection with drain cleaning in Aurora?
Yes. Every drain cleaning job in Aurora includes a camera inspection before we quote. We put the camera in the line so you can see exactly what's blocking it before we recommend how to clear it. There is no separate charge for the inspection on drain calls.
How much does drain cleaning cost in Aurora?
Drain cleaning in Aurora is priced based on the type of drain, the severity of the blockage, and whether the main line or a single fixture is affected. We provide a written quote after the camera inspection — that's the price you pay. Same rate any day of the week. Call 647-778-9411 for a same-day estimate.
Is hydro-jetting safe for Aurora's heritage drain pipes?
Hydro-jetting pressure is set based on the pipe material and condition found on camera. Clay and early cast iron drain lines in Old Aurora are assessed before jetting — if pipe walls are significantly compromised, we use a lower-pressure method or recommend a section repair first. Camera inspection before any clearing is standard on every job.
What causes Aurora drains to keep blocking?
In Old Aurora and the 1950s–60s bungalow streets, the most common causes are root intrusion in clay and cast iron main lines, and corroded cast iron walls that catch grease. In the 1990s–2000s subdivisions like Bayview Wellington, root intrusion in aging main lines is the typical culprit. Camera inspection identifies which applies.
Can you clear a completely blocked main sewer line same day in Aurora?
Yes. Midtown Plumbing handles main sewer line blockages in Aurora with same-day dispatch, Monday through Sunday from 7 AM to 9 PM. If your basement floor drain is backing up or multiple drains are slow simultaneously, call 647-778-9411 immediately. Shut off water to the house if anything is overflowing.
How long does drain cleaning take in Aurora?
A single fixture drain clearing typically takes 30–60 minutes once on-site. Main sewer line blockages, including camera inspection, clearing, and post-clear camera verification, usually take 1.5–2 hours. If a repair is identified during the inspection, we quote it separately and can often complete it the same visit.
Which areas of Aurora do you serve for drain cleaning?
Midtown Plumbing clears drains throughout all of Aurora — including Aurora Village, Old Aurora, Aurora Heights, Bayview Wellington, Temperance Street, the Aurora Promenade area, Leslie Street Corridor, and all residential streets in between. Same-day service available Monday through Sunday, 7 AM to 9 PM. Call 647-778-9411.
