The Drain & Sewer Team Comox Valley Homes & Businesses Trust
Need drain cleaning in Courtenay, Comox, Cumberland, or Campbell River — and a licensed plumber who’ll find out why the drain blocked in the first place? Siegfried Plumbing & Gas does both. We clear slow sinks, blocked showers, backed-up tubs, and laundry drains, and we clean the main sewer line running from your home out to the city connection. Hand auger, drain snake, cabling, and hydro jetting — no harsh chemical drain cleaners dumped in your pipes. Owner-operator John Siegfried is a Red Seal certified journeyman plumber and gas fitter with 25+ years in the trade, and he’s hands-on every job. Same-day calls are welcome seven days a week, 8am to 6pm, and every job starts with a free estimate.
A blocked drain is usually telling you something. A single slow sink is often a blockage in that fixture’s own line. When the whole house is draining slowly — or backing up — the problem is generally further down the main run. So every job starts the same way: find the cause first. Cabling and hydro jetting clear what’s there, and a sewer camera inspection shows what’s actually going on inside the line, from the city connection to the house and out to the tank. If the camera finds a cracked, collapsed, or root-damaged section, we repair or replace it — and if it doesn’t, you’ll know that too. You get the same licensed plumber start to finish, all work completed to BC Plumbing Code, and an honest read before you spend a dollar. For water sitting around your foundation or pooling in the yard, that’s a different system — see our perimeter drains and sump pumps page.
Drain Cleaning & Sewer Clearing
One slow sink or the whole house backing up — the first job is getting the water moving again. Cables, augers, and high-pressure water do that, instead of harsh chemicals.
Drain Cleaning
For slow sinks, blocked showers, and backed-up tubs. Sinks, showers, tubs, and laundry drains, cleared with a hand auger and drain snake, with no harsh chemicals dumped in your pipes. Same-day calls welcome.
Sewer Cleaning
Residential sewer lines from the city line to your home and out to the tank. Cabling, jetting, and root-clearing for slow drains, backups, and odors. All work to BC Plumbing Code.
Main Sewer Line Cleaning
For when the whole house is backing up or draining slowly. Cabling, hydro jetting, and root-clearing on the main run from your home to the city line. Same-day calls welcome.
Hydro Jet Drain Cleaning
For stubborn blockages, grease buildup, and recurring sewer backups. High-pressure water cuts through what cables can’t reach and clears the main line clean.
Sewer Line Repair, Replacement & Installation
Cracked, collapsed, root-damaged, or leaking — when the line itself is what’s wrong, this is the work that sorts it out properly.
Sewer Repair
Sewer line repair for cracked, collapsed, root-damaged, or leaking sewer lines, from the city line to your home and out to the tank. Spot repairs and section replacements. All work to BC Plumbing Code. Free estimates on every repair.
Sewer Line Replacement
When the existing line is beyond repair. Full replacement from the city line to your home and out to the tank. Permits pulled, all work to BC Plumbing Code, yard restored where possible.
Sewer Line Installation
For new construction or full property additions. Underground sewer mains from the city connection to the house and out to the tank. PVC, ABS, or cast iron, sized to demand and pulled to permit.
Sewer Inspection & Backup Protection
See inside the line before anyone digs, make it easier to get at next time, and keep the city sewer from backing up into your home.
Sewer Camera Inspection
A video camera run through your sewer line from the city connection to the house and out to the tank. Identifies blockages, root intrusion, cracks, collapses, and connection issues. Pre-purchase and diagnostic inspections.
Sewer Cleanout Installation
Adds an exterior or interior cleanout fitting where one doesn’t exist, for easier access to clear future blockages. Saves on excavation when problems hit. All work to BC Plumbing Code.
Backwater Valve Installation
Protects your home from sewer backups during heavy rain or city sewer overload. A one-way valve installed on the main sewer line keeps sewage out when the city line surcharges. All work to BC Plumbing Code.

Drain Cleaning FAQs
Do you clear blocked drains and main sewer lines?
Yes — both. Sinks, showers, tubs, and laundry drains, plus the main sewer line running from your home out to the city connection. We use a hand auger, drain snake, cabling, and hydro jetting rather than harsh chemicals. All work completed to BC Plumbing Code, with a free estimate first.
Can you find out what's blocking the line before digging?
Yes. A sewer camera inspection runs a video camera through your sewer line from the city connection to the house and out to the tank. It identifies blockages, root intrusion, cracks, collapses, and connection issues — so the line is looked at before anyone puts a shovel in the ground, and the fix is targeted instead of guesswork. Pre-purchase and diagnostic inspections are both available.
What can be done about a drain that keeps backing up?
A drain that keeps backing up is usually a sign of something sitting in the main line — grease buildup, roots, or a damaged section. Hydro jet drain cleaning uses high-pressure water to cut through what cables can’t reach and clear the main line clean, and a camera inspection confirms whether the line itself needs repair. If it does, we repair or replace that section. A sewer cleanout can also be added where one doesn’t exist, which makes future blockages far easier to clear.
Do you offer same-day service?
Yes. Same-day calls are welcome seven days a week, 8am to 6pm. You get a licensed plumber at the door and a clear price before the work starts.
Are you licensed and insured?
