Kitchen drains
Grease, cooking fat, food scraps, and garbage-disposal backups cleared from clogged kitchen sink and dishwasher lines — the drains that clog most often because grease cools and sets up hard inside the pipe.
Clear the blockage
A slow sink, standing water, or a clogged drain that keeps coming back? Jetstar Plumbing and Drains clears the blockage — from a single clogged fixture to a backed-up main line — verifies the line is flowing, and tells you exactly what caused it.
Understand the problem

Drain cleaning is not one-size-fits-all. A grease-packed kitchen line, a hair-clogged shower drain, and a whole-home backup that traces to the main sewer line each call for a different tool — a cable machine (drain snake), a rooter, or hydro jetting. Matching the method to the blockage is what keeps the drain clear instead of clogging again next month.
Jetstar Plumbing and Drains clears clogged sinks, tubs, showers, toilets, floor drains, and main lines for homes and businesses across Utah County and Salt Lake County. We remove the stoppage, confirm the line is flowing, and pinpoint anything — grease, roots, or a damaged pipe — that would bring the clog back.
A lot of what we clear along the Wasatch Front traces back to a few local culprits. Utah's hard water leaves mineral scale that slowly narrows older galvanized and cast-iron pipe. Kitchen grease cools and hardens on the walls of the line long after it went down looking like liquid. And tree roots work into clay and aging main lines throughout established Salt Lake and Utah County neighborhoods. Because those causes are physical, a bottle of store cleaner rarely fixes them for long — it opens a channel and the pipe closes back up. We clear the blockage now, then tell you honestly whether it was a one-time problem or a pattern worth getting ahead of, so you are not calling back about the same drain a month from now.
Talk through the symptomsScope
Grease, cooking fat, food scraps, and garbage-disposal backups cleared from clogged kitchen sink and dishwasher lines — the drains that clog most often because grease cools and sets up hard inside the pipe.
Hair, soap scum, toothpaste, and hard-water scale pulled from clogged tubs, showers, sinks, and the toilet branch lines they share.
Basement, laundry, garage, and commercial floor drains restored to full flow — the low points where a backup usually surfaces first when a main line is struggling.
Backed-up main lines and clogs that keep returning, checked on camera for grease, roots, or pipe damage so the real cause gets fixed instead of pushed a few feet downstream.
Know the signs
If these symptoms are active or worsening, call before water or wastewater creates a larger problem.
A sink or tub that empties slowly is usually a partial clog narrowing the pipe. Cleared early it is a simple job; left alone it builds until the line blocks completely and backs up.
Several fixtures gurgling or backing up at once — especially the lowest drains in the house — points to a clog in the shared main line, not one fixture you can plunge.
A persistent sewer or rotten odor means material is still coating the line, a trap has dried out, or wastewater is sitting where it shouldn't — worth a look before it gets worse.
Store-bought cleaner that opens the drain for a week and then quits means the real restriction — hardened grease, roots, or a damaged section — is still sitting in the line.
Straight answer on price
Jetstar Plumbing and Drains quotes drain cleaning up front, after confirming which line is blocked and how it needs to be cleared — never a guess over the phone. A few things move the number:
Typical range
$150 – $350
Typical Salt Lake & Utah county range. Your exact price is quoted before any work begins.
A single sink or tub branch is a smaller job than a main-drain backup affecting the whole home.
An available cleanout is faster to work than a line reached through a fixture or roof vent.
A simple cable clearing costs less than heavy grease or roots that call for hydro jetting.
Pairing a camera inspection adds cost but confirms the cause when a clog keeps returning.
Inspect → act → verify
We confirm which fixtures are affected, check how the symptoms connect, and pinpoint where the clog is actually sitting before running any equipment.
The technician runs the right cable, rooter head, or hydro-jet for the pipe size and the type of blockage — not a one-tool-fits-all snake that punches a hole and leaves the rest behind.
We test full drainage at the fixture and, when a clog has been recurring, camera the line so you know straight whether it is clear for good or whether grease, roots, or a sewer problem needs follow-up.
