A slow drain is annoying. A fully blocked drain is a crisis. Either way, Axel Mechanical Services has the equipment and experience to get things flowing again fast. We provide professional drain cleaning for kitchens, bathrooms, floor drains, and main sewer lines throughout Lancaster, York, Lebanon, and Dauphin Counties.
We use professional-grade drain snakes, hydro-jetting equipment, and camera inspections to clear even the toughest clogs and identify the root cause. Whether it's grease buildup, tree roots, or years of accumulated scale, we'll clear the blockage and help you prevent it from coming back.
Kitchen sinks clogged with grease and food debris, bathroom drains backed up with hair and soap scum - we clear them all. Our drain cleaning methods go beyond the surface to remove buildup deep in the pipes, restoring full drainage and preventing future clogs.
When multiple drains are slow or backing up at the same time, it usually points to a main line issue. We use heavy-duty equipment to clear main sewer lines and can run a camera inspection to check for tree root intrusion, collapsed sections, or other damage that needs attention.
Not sure what's causing your drain problem? Our sewer camera inspections give us a live view inside your pipes so we can pinpoint the exact issue - whether it's roots, a break, a belly in the line, or just heavy buildup. No guesswork, just answers.
A backed-up sewer line or overflowing drain is an emergency that can cause real damage to your home. Call us at (717) 342-6382 for emergency drain cleaning. We do our best to accommodate urgent situations and clear the blockage before it causes further problems.
Don't waste time and money on chemical drain cleaners that don't work. Our professional equipment and experienced plumbers solve drain problems permanently, not temporarily.

Recurring clogs usually mean there's buildup deeper in your pipes that a plunger or store-bought drain cleaner can't reach. Common causes include grease accumulation in kitchen lines, hair and soap buildup in bathroom drains, or tree roots infiltrating your main sewer line. A professional cleaning with our equipment clears the entire line, not just the surface blockage.
We generally advise against chemical drain cleaners. They're often ineffective on serious clogs, can damage older pipes (especially cast iron and galvanized steel), and create a hazardous situation if a plumber needs to work on the line afterward. Professional mechanical drain cleaning is safer, more effective, and better for your plumbing system in the long run.
Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to blast through heavy grease buildup, mineral deposits, and even tree roots inside your pipes. It's especially effective for main sewer lines and commercial kitchen drains where standard drain snaking isn't enough. We'll assess your situation and recommend the best approach for your specific problem.
Use drain screens to catch hair and food debris, avoid pouring grease or oil down kitchen drains, run hot water after each use, and never flush anything other than toilet paper. For homes with older plumbing or large trees near sewer lines, we recommend preventive drain cleaning once a year to stay ahead of potential problems.
The cost depends on the location and severity of the clog. Simple drain cleaning for a single fixture is very affordable, while main sewer line clearing or hydro-jetting costs more. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you'll always know the cost before we begin. Call us at (717) 342-6382 for a quote.
