Richmond sits at sea level on delta soil — the flattest drainage grades in the region. With almost no slope to help gravity along, Richmond lines silt up and slow down faster than anywhere else in the Lower Mainland.
Richmond drains & sewers
Flat grade means solids settle instead of flushing through, and soft delta soils let pipes sag into bellies that hold standing water. Richmond’s huge restaurant scene pushes serious grease into commercial lines. Scheduled jetting keeps flat lines moving; the camera confirms whether a slow drain is grease, a belly or both.
Our process is the same everywhere in Richmond: a CCTV camera inspection records the true condition of the line, hydro jetting scrubs away whatever the camera finds, and a second camera pass proves the pipe is clean — all documented in footage and a written report you can keep.

Yes — we serve all of Richmond, including City Centre & Brighouse, Steveston, Terra Nova & Thompson, Ironwood & Riverport, Hamilton, East Cambie. Every job starts with a CCTV camera inspection so the cleaning method matches what's actually in your pipe, and ends with a second camera pass to prove the line is clean.

It depends on the line's length, diameter, access and what the camera finds — we quote up front before any work starts, with no surprises. Annual Inspection Program members get locked-in member rates on all jetting and repair work.
We schedule camera inspections across undefined throughout the week, and Annual Inspection Program members get front-of-line priority response when something backs up unexpectedly.
For most Richmond properties, yes — one recorded camera inspection a year catches grease, roots and scale while they're still cheap to deal with. High-volume kitchens and known problem lines may warrant every six months. The footage and written report also give strata councils and owners documented proof of condition.
