We inspect the drain with a cable camera or by running water to assess the blockage type and location before selecting the right clearing method — snaking, hydro-jetting, or a combination.
Magnet Plumbing clears clogged drains in Startex, SC using professional hydro-jetting or mechanical snaking selected for the specific blockage. Hydro-jetting removes grease, scale, and roots from the full pipe interior — not just punching a hole through the clog.
We flush the cleared drain in your Startex home thoroughly to confirm full flow is restored. For main sewer lines, we may run a post-clearing camera to verify the pipe is clear from the building to the city connection.
We advise you on habits and maintenance that reduce future drain problems — what not to put down the drain, enzyme treatment options, and when to schedule preventive cleaning.

Most Startex homeowners benefit from professional drain cleaning every 1 to 2 years as preventive maintenance. Kitchen drains in households that cook frequently may need annual service. Homes with large trees near the sewer line should have the main line inspected and cleared annually to prevent root buildup from causing backups.
The most common causes of clogged drains in Startex homes are grease and food particles in kitchen drains, hair and soap scum in bathroom drains, tree root intrusion in main sewer lines, mineral scale buildup from hard water, and flushing non-flushable items that get stuck in the sewer line. Each type requires a different clearing approach.
Yes. Tree roots are one of the most common causes of sewer line problems in Startex neighborhoods with mature trees. Roots enter through small cracks or joints in older sewer lines and grow inside the pipe, eventually causing recurring blockages, complete blockages, or pipe collapse. Annual hydro-jetting and a root treatment can control root growth and extend line life.
Drain snaking uses a rotating cable to break through or pull out blockages. It is effective for hair clogs and localized obstructions but leaves residue on pipe walls. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the full pipe interior, removing grease, scale, and root intrusion completely. For main sewer lines and recurring clogs, hydro-jetting provides more thorough and longer-lasting results.
Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"Woke up to a backed-up kitchen sink and called Magnet first thing. Technician was here within two hours, cleared the clog, and walked me through what caused it so it would not happen again. Very professional team."
"Main water line burst and we had a river in the front yard. They isolated the break, got the water back on within a few hours, and replaced the section cleanly the next day. Excellent emergency response."
"Our 1970s galvanized pipes were failing one joint at a time. Got three bids on a whole-house repipe and these guys were competitive on price and had the best timeline. Seven days start to finish, minimal drywall damage, and water pressure is dramatically better throughout the house. Worth every dollar."
