Sewer & Drain Services
in Baton Rouge, LA
Residential • Commercial • Industrial — Blockages Found & Cleared 7 Days a Week
Baton Rouge's Sewer & Drain Specialists Since 1984
Standing water, slow drains, and recurring backups are signs your drain system needs attention — and as your trusted service provider in Baton Rouge, Reliable Plumbing responds fast to minimize damage. Since 1984, our licensed, family-owned team (LMP #3991) has cleared and repaired drain systems for homes, businesses, and industrial facilities throughout Baton Rouge, Denham Springs, Zachary, and the surrounding parishes.
We clear and repair main lines, sinks, bathtub and shower drains, floor drains, washer pipes, roof drains, and grease traps. For severe blockages and grease build up, we offer hydro jetting — utilizing high pressure water that removes grease, roots, and buildup without damaging your pipes. We also handle septic tank piping, sewer pipe replacement, and odor detection.
Drain Cleaning & Repair
Drain Cleaning & Repair
Slow drains, recurring backups, and blocked sewer lines cleared fast. We service main lines, sinks, floor drains, bathtub and shower drains, washer pipes, roof drains, and more — using top-of-the-line drain cleaning equipment to get you back online sooner rather than later.
Heavy-use commercial kitchens, laundromats, and multi-unit properties put significant stress on drain systems. We provide scheduled and emergency drain cleaning around the clock, so a backed-up line never shuts down your household or your business for long.
Hydro Jetting
Hydro Jetting
High-pressure water jetting is the most effective method for clearing heavy-duty blockages in drainage and sewer systems — including hardened scale, grease, debris, and root growth — without chemical intervention. We offer hydro jetting and pipe jetting for residential sewer lines, commercial drainage, storm systems, and industrial applications throughout Greater Baton Rouge.
Video Pipe Inspection
Video Pipe Inspection
Our video inspection equipment provides a real-time view inside sewer lines and drain systems — identifying blockages, cracks, root intrusion, and structural issues before they become costly problems. Correcting issues early prevents expensive future backups, and inspection reports can be provided for documentation and compliance records.
Sewer Line Replacement
Sewer Line Replacement
When repairs are no longer enough, Reliable Plumbing uses the best materials on the market to ensure longevity when replacing your sewer and drain lines. Where needed, we bed new piping with crushed limestone to prevent settling — protecting your investment for years to come. Combined with video pipe inspection, we can confirm the condition of your lines before and after replacement.
Drain Line Repair
Drain Line Repair
Hidden leaks waste water and damage to your home’s foundation. Reliable Plumbing uses video cameras, line-tracing equipment, and smoke testing technology to pinpoint leaks quickly — including under-slab leaks — without unnecessary disruption to your property. We serve residential and commercial clients throughout Baton Rouge, Denham Springs, Zachary, and surrounding areas.
Drain Tunneling
Drain Tunneling
Tunneling can be an efficient way to replace or repair drain and sewer lines beneath your home or business. This method cuts down on interior restoration costs and allows the job to be completed without disrupting day-to-day activities — no tearing up floors to reach the problem.
Smoke Testing
Smoke Testing
Sewer odor leaks can create health hazards as well as day-to-day inconvenience. Smoke testing helps us identify and efficiently locate problems that would otherwise be difficult to find — reducing the overall cost and time it takes to restore a healthy environment in your home or facility.

FAQ — Sewer & Drain
Recurring backups usually mean the blockage was cleared but the underlying cause remains — often root intrusion, a bellied or broken line, or grease buildup. A video pipe inspection shows exactly what's happening inside the line so we can fix the cause instead of repeatedly treating the symptom.
Hydro jetting cleans buildup and scale that out of your lines that would otherwise remain from unclogging with traditional drain snakes-allowing line to flow freely and see clearly with camera equipment to identify and repair lines.
Frequent backups, sewage odors, soggy spots in the yard, and visible root intrusion on camera are common signs. We use video inspection to assess the line and recommend repair when it will last — and replacement with properly bedded, modern materials when it won't.
Yes. Since 1984 we've serviced commercial kitchens, laundromats, multi-unit properties, storm systems, and industrial facilities throughout the Baton Rouge corridor. Our team includes OSHA-certified technicians who hold TWIC cards for cleared access to petrochemical and marine sites.
